I think that to numerically represent the gap between Blade Runner and the various cinepanettoni, or between "Selling England" and the albums of Gigi D'Alessio, a much broader scale of values is necessary than the one that goes from 1 to 5. Also because, if we make serious evaluations, 70% of all global production would fall between 3 and 4. I would give a Selling England an 85 out of 100, while to any garbage by D'Alessio, never more than 10 out of 100. A 1.5 would be equivalent to a 30 out of 100... ridiculously low.

Anyway, at the end of "The Good Love," you can repeatedly hear one of the classic Iron Maiden riffs, and we're in '69!! Talk about being a forerunner :D

@the polstino: yes, it was indeed official even if published at a local level, but I don't feel comfortable considering it the first edition instead of the one from Imperial.

"The Progressive Blues Experiment" was recorded in August '68 and released shortly after on a local level in Texas, to the extent that in the December '68 issue of Rolling Stone it was enthusiastically mentioned as "The hottest item outside of Janis Joplin." However, its first official edition dates back to late March/early April of 1969 for Imperial. "Johnny Winter," the first album with Columbia, was released on April 6, 1969, thus practically simultaneously, while both "First Winter" and "Second Winter" were released in October 1969, the first containing material from '68, by Buddah, and the second by Columbia. So, if we want to put them in chronological order, the first record is "The Progressive Blues Experiment," followed by the self-titled album just a few days later, then the other two after 6 months.

Are we in an Alberto Sordi film????

Indeed, Kleiza is a forward of considerable merit.

"no actually, I've always preferred playing it rather than watching it." For me too, it's the sport I prefer to play. To watch, basketball and tennis.

Apart from the fact that I haven't compared Kobe to Jordan, if we have to choose the two players who most closely resemble "his Airness" in today's landscape in terms of psycho-physical and technical characteristics, those are Kobe and Wade, I think that's undeniable. Just as it is undeniable that someone like MJ will never exist again, not just in the history of basketball, but in any sport. However, if you stop at this consideration to say that there's no longer any reason to follow the NBA, then I think you're not very passionate about basketball. There are still many interesting points to explore. Furthermore, I want to point out that after the Jordan era, absolute legends like Duncan, Shaq, Garnett, Bryant, James, and Nowitzki emerged. If we want to cover our eyes with ham slices, let's do it, but to say that the NBA post-'98 is just an agony is an exaggeration.
