The Nomads - Bangkok - 1984

Journey "The Nomads" between originals and covers, all sublime (26)
 
 
Miiiiiiinchia I was enjoying the fantastic movie "Divorzio all'italiana" by Germi with the great Marcello and the then super-hot Stefania Sandrelli, and meanwhile I was browsing the fresh and somewhat choppy sea of DeBaser. I am quite saddened to learn about the sinking of our beloved @[JOHNDOE] who is leaving us once again. These are things that make the spirits of all of us sad, I am convinced of that, and I wonder: why?
And I ask myself again: will he resurrect once more like the promised ehm, Messiah?

Well, in the meantime, I leave you this image from the movie to commemorate a little the untimely departure of our "hero." And nothing, actually no, goodbye my old friend and stay well...

Il rock è morto

from an interview with Giovanni Succi:
Question: in the song "rock is dead," I find every line striking. Especially the focus on that part of the musical critique that is stuck in certain classic rock patterns. In this vein, I would like to know your opinion on the current state of our rock, both the underground and the one in the media spotlight.

"As an author, I don’t address the critics; I address the audience, people who listen, or who could genuinely listen. Flesh-and-blood people that I might face and look in the eye. If a certain type of rock fan were to listen to that piece, it was important for me to point out that if anyone is killing rock here, it’s them. The lyrics are explicit, they will recognize themselves. The media chase after the tastes of the audience, not the other way around: we shouldn't always shift the responsibility elsewhere. The mainstream rock audience is backward-looking and reactionary, meaning resistant to any form of change, come what may. The media know this. And this is how it behaves towards rock, a popular music that has always lived (since its inception) and perhaps survives through metamorphosis, contamination, leaps and risks, not mummies. With the same attitude, you would have kept the Beatles stuck at Love Me Do.
As for the current events in Italy, I assume you’re referring to the success of Måneskin; I believe they demonstrate one fact: that incredibly talented, beautiful, and fully convinced young people, EVEN IF ITALIAN, can still make it with the first three chords of Smoke On The Water in 2021. Just as it happened with Sfera Ebbasta in his time: too good to be ignored. Does that sound bad to you? I see only beauty: it’s rock’n’roll. “Live to win, born to lose” was Lemmy’s motto. And they have won, period. They don’t invent anything? So what do they need to? Have you seen them? So leave the dirty work to us sick flies and enjoy the party without being a pain in the ass."

Portapagliauberalles

How boring and annoying these totally crowded and impractical beaches are: it feels almost like being at the Bagni Rina in Riccione.
And then this water is so dirty.
All we're missing are the seagulls making a fuss.

This summer, I wholeheartedly recommend that you stay right where you are.
