Born Under a Bad Sign

But who’s better than Gimi?

one of the many names often left and #forgotten on the bench until some star wears their shirt and then the self-proclaimed expert names them an essential group; if you have one of their records, maybe bought blindly the day before, you’ve earned the status of cool and for a couple of days, you feel accomplished.
 
The End

Nico and Jim, Jim and Nico…

We will meet them again, but here they are together.

How can it be that in such a short time a beautiful story is created, one that She will remember as unique.

“THE CASTLE,” a villa that looks like a castle in the hills of Los Angeles. I’ve already mentioned this place elsewhere. The villa was rented by that cursed genius Arthur Lee and became the headquarters of the Love band. Parties are organized… I’ll let you imagine.

The story goes that one evening Jim walks in and the room freezes. There are other prominent figures from the art scene, but when HE enters, everything comes to a halt for a moment… absolute silence… and then murmurs and excitement. It always happens this way.

A few minutes later, Nico walks in and again the room stops. There’s no one like Her. Beautiful, charming, charismatic, inaccessible… no, rather, more than vulnerable, but no one knows that.

Introducing Nico is Danny Fields, who immediately senses the magnetic attraction that has developed between the two at first glance.

It was their first time together, in one of the 22 rooms.

After the orgasm, madness. Nico climbs onto the castle parapet and starts walking on it. Jim can’t believe it… it’s what He always loves to do, walking on a precarious balance anywhere where if you fall… you die.

When they make love, Nico sits naked on his face and then presses down on his face until he almost suffocates.

I've always said I would like to die like this… or to have already died like this, even better…

Maybe a month… just a few times… but for Nico it will last forever… Jim was the only one who told Her that She should write and sing…

LL COOL J - Runnit Back (Audio)

@[ZiOn] the album is out. Upon first listen, it didn't impress me. Many collaborations, but the best tracks seem to be the ones where he’s solo.

If for thirty years I wondered what happened to Australian rock, obviously for thirty years Australian rock must have wondered what happened to me (20)
 
"Isadora Duncan"- Vic Chesnutt

Vic dedicated a piece to her... probably as his “friend”, also a heroine of solitude and despair, of misfortune.

ISADORA DUNCAN revolutionized dance, made it... BEAUTIFUL!

Ahead of her time, rebellious, courageous, and unlucky like few others. Four husbands, the last one 18 years younger than her, three children from three different men. Her first two children drowned in the Seine following a tragic yet grotesque “accident”: the driver stepped out to restart the car with the hand crank, didn't engage the handbrake and the car slid into the Seine with the two little ones, ages 3 and 7, and the governess. She wants another child, meets an Italian, becomes pregnant but the baby is stillborn. She starts drinking and gets into all sorts of trouble. She even becomes the subject of ridicule because she has visibly gained weight...

SHE, elegance personified through dance...

She goes to France abandoned by everyone. On September 4, 1927, the last tragicomic twist of fate. A wild life marked by events that seem like jokes if they weren’t so dramatic. She accepts a ride from her pilot friend Benoit Falchetto. Bids farewell to her friends once more with optimism and hope, who knows, maybe things will turn around...

I would say no... Her long scarf gets caught in the rear wheel spokes of the Bugatti...
She dies by strangulation... the final twist...
