Re: Cinema, Music, Literature - your recommendations?

How patronising of you to assume that I haven't already done so! In actual fact I haven't, as I've never even heard of it. But that's beside the point. Big nose.

Re: Cinema, Music, Literature - your recommendations?

It seems all Italian adolescent males are into Queen. Must be the opera thing. I forgot about Johnny Cash. He's great. I can't stand Bob Dylan's music (or more to the point, his voice) but I saw...

D.S.O.T.M. best album ever made. Floyd best band who ever existed. (Floyd took their name from two old bluesmen: Pink ANDERSON and Floyd COUNCIL). Generally though my tastes are much nearer Indie's,...

I never saw the Roses live, but their first album is a masterpiece. I love The Smiths and think Marr was one of best guitarists ever. And Hooky was in not one but TWO of the greatest bands ever....

"The Dark Heart Of Italy". I must say, I really liked it. Very interesting, I thought, on Berlusconi's dodgy past. The same writer, Toby Jones, stirred up some controvery here when he wrote an...
