@XMartinsMusicX John Cales version of Hallelujah is by far the best cover of that even Leonard Cohen said so.
He changed the arrangement and the covers by the likes of Buckley are actually a cover of Cales cover

Exactly 38 years ago today, Lovesexy was released. I still think it’s my favorite album, and Prince’s most conceptual and religious.
This wasn’t just an album; this was a musical ‘trip’. You couldn’t skip a track; the album was one long song.
An ‘unheard masterpiece’ (AD)

Bob Seger is vandaag 81 geworden. Zijn grootste hit in Nederland was het fraaie 'Still the same' uit 1978. Mijns inziens nóg mooier zijn 'Night moves', 'Mainstreet', 'Against the wind' en 'Till it shines', met een mooie, korte gitaarsolo van Glenn Frey van de Eagles.

@AdrianusPeters Daar zit wat in. Als scholier deed ik andere dingen dan literatuur lezen. En nu nog vind ik de, overleden, popjournalist Geert Henderickx van Oor een van de beste stilisten in het Nederlands.

"The Cramps tore up the New York punk scene with their leopard-skin vampire look and a psychobilly sound that went way beyond the kitschiest moments of the Ramones or Blondie and into a whole new realm of garage-trash novelty." @RollingStone #punk #punks #punkrock #thecramps

Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries:
“It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones.
“There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion.
“If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the ‘medicine closet’ and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That’s why you should always have a nutrition choice!
“Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity.”

Hij droeg geen Rolex en ging het liefst met de bus: miljardair Martijn van der Vorm was graag onzichtbaar.
Deze man heeft heel veel positiviteit gebracht voor Rotterdam.
Een geweldige weldoener voor de stad waar zijn liefde lag.

Beverly Martyn has left the building - her two albums with John Martyn were expressive, empathetic, understated, moving - sadly, her solo career didn’t quite get going
