An Emotional Fish - Celebrate Vasco Rossi - Gli Spari Sopra .. let's say that in terms of earnings, I believe this version by our local rocker from Zocca has 100-folded that of An Emotional Fish. Vasco's single in 1992 sold 200,000 copies (the single..) the album seems to have sold over a million copies... #iladri who made a fortune!

#iladri Cream - Live At The Fillmore: Crossroads Story: it’s one of the 29 blues by Robert Johnson, it’s Robert Johnson I don’t think he made any money, considering he was Black in a time when Black people certainly didn’t make money. Stop.

Could the most famous Brazilian song be the spoils of a robbery?
Sure, the owner has never filed a complaint, as far as we know. The fact is that very little is known about the recifense José Prates, who embarked on a folkloric tetral adventure around the world to oversee its musical aspect, all summarized in a meager cultural page of a bank. The point is that in '58 he recorded this excellent album, where he dresses the soul music of candomblé (a rich source that is still drawn from abundantly today) with the elegance of brass and voices, and where it is clearly recognizable that one of the tracks contained within bears a strong resemblance to Mais Que Nada, which would be published four years later. Of course, in defense, we could also argue that everything is drawn from the popular, it's public domain. In the end, Jorge Ben is quite likable.
No one has the challenging verdict.
Everyone is invited to listen to the album.

Coldplay - Daddy (Official Video)

Only those who wrote the umpteenth nonsense know what will be here about U2, and they only show how unsuitable they are for reviews; they would do better to rent a quadruped to try their hand at horse racing, who knows, they might achieve less disastrous results.

Coldplay, on the other hand, have always proven to be capable from the very beginning, achieving good results with every release. This piece I've just heard for the first time seems like a sweet lullaby, so I take this opportunity to say goodbye to you all and prepare to cross the threshold into the world of dreams... good night!

Now, dear @[G], @turkish, and @Tam, I know you have enough material for ten broadcasts, but this is a story too beautiful not to be (re)told. In fact, I'm (re)posting an old listening...
Eden Ahbez - Nature Boy
Do you know the gigantic Hollywood sign that towers over Los Angeles? That’s where George Aberle lived, camping out, even before he became eden ahbez (strictly all lowercase because capital letters are only for God and Infinity). Record executives realized this when they sought him out for the rights to his hits! A vegetarian and Buddhist, philosopher and musician, he lived off what grew on that hill and claimed to need no more than three dollars a week. And not because he was poor: the mere "Nature Boy" guaranteed him millionaire royalties. Nat "King" Cole brought it to success, but after him, everyone sang it (and they still do): from Sinatra to Marvin Gaye, from Grace Slick to Cher, from Alex Chilton to Bowie and Miles Davis and Coltrane... It’s easier to say who hasn’t sung it.
And he wasn’t even doing it because it was trendy; it wasn’t the '60s yet. It was before, long before the Hippies and the flower children. His son and wife also lived under the "L" of Hollywood.
But it wasn’t just a stroke of luck; the guy also wrote for Sam Cooke and Frankie Laine and quite a few others.
He recorded two LPs ("eden's Island" and the posthumous "Echoes from Nature Boy") and a few singles (I think three), with which he invented that "exotica" which would then become psychedelia.
Really quite a character.
He died at 87 due to a car accident.
Damn modernity!

Now, this doesn’t fit all the parameters just because good old eden wasn’t poor: he chose to be poor!
But it’s still fantastic (in my opinion), and the piece is too beautiful as well as famous.

IVAN GRAZIANI - I GIORNI DI NOVEMBRE

Ivan's mother was from Alghero, Sardinia, and there is a popular legend that Ivan was born on the Olbia-Civitavecchia ferry, which is where his name derives from, "navi" spelled backward.

Just past eighteen, he founded the group "Ivan e i Saggi," later changing the name to "Anonima Sard... uh, I mean "Anonima Sound."

Ivan left the "Anonima Sound" to serve in the military (which was compulsory at the time), and in '72, he began his solo career under the pseudonyms "Rockleberry Roll" and "Ivan & Transport," while also starting a career as a comic book artist around the same time, but that’s another story, and nothing...
