Massive Attack - Risingson

Gianni Morandi - Notte di ferragosto (1966)

Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later......
 
Bessie Smith - Down Hearted Blues (1923)

“You gotta pay your dues if you want to sing the blues”… The Empress, an inimitable artist, greedy for everything, even sexually. Rich, powerful, arrogant, wicked… when black people couldn’t…

“I’m getting bored. Let’s all strip naked and do whatever comes to mind.” How she loved the Buffet Flats…

I would have wanted to die during a night at the Buffet Flats…

“The greatest blues singer in the world will never stop singing."
Janis, on August 8, 1970, had these words inscribed (just before she died) on her heroine’s grave. In fact, she gave her a decent tomb…

This was the Tex Willer I adore: the one that would be minimally described as "politically incorrect." The one who would first call you "a waste of humanity," then beat you up thoroughly until you were "something more akin to a pile of rags than a human being," and then wake you up with this ingenious method not lacking a certain... sulfurous (ahr!) and rather unsubtle irony.

P.S. Unfortunately, with a Vannacci, a Salvini, a Giordano, a Belpietro (the incomparable Capezzone is out of the league) and so on (we have plenty of this stinking raw material), the method wouldn't work, as the cited individuals would feel no pain.
