Enrique, everyone is going to be so jealous of Guido for getting this.... Awesome list.

It's a good list, but there's no way Van Morrison shouldn't have a song in there somewhere...

A.F.T die.


goodbye Ali,
he is in travel to the last concert,
another star play the sky....


E' partito per l'ultimo concerto...

Se ne è andato il più geniale chitarrista del mondo.
Sotterrato il suo strumento nella sacra terra d'Africa,
Qui questa notte gira nel suo "fiume"a ciclo continuo.

L'ultima volta che ne avevo scritto,
era in occasione della farsa Live 8,
quando aveva denunciato la capziosità di certi suoi "fratelli"
invitati a suonare.

an'kié ali!!!
il tuo spirito si farà ascoltare ancora per molto
negli anni a venire.

For anyone confused by the previous post . . .

Ali Farke Toure passed away last week.
A brilliant musician from Mali, a superstar in Africa

my favorite is "Niafunke."
You might know "Talking Timbuktu" that he made with Ry Cooder, or the new collaboration with Toumani Diabate
"In The Heart Of The Moon"

It's all beautiful beautiful music.

this is 2 years too late... but casimir pulaski day at a dinner party? only if there's arsenic in the punch!
