Well, it made me laugh.... Love that album

Thanks HutchFan, 4 out of 8 seems a pretty good return

Jonathan Liew is not a great writer at all, too clever by half. I like the idea that he could have bought the club, that makes me laugh, he could've have then benched Ramos for the length of his contract!

How many tracks does he play flute on on this one? I'm tempted.

Credit where credit's due...

I think it may have been your enthusiasm for it that made me aware of it. Recent arrival, listened twice today and I'm impressed.

Masahiko Sato - Kayobi No Onna [Mitsuko & Svetlana Records, 2020] thinking this is probably somewhere in the @Teasing the Korean ballpark? Late 60s Japanese detective series soundtrack.

I don't disagree with much of that. I still think the tears were genuine. It would seem that the obvious solution for both parties does seem to have been for him to stay and play for nothing, or next to nothing, which makes me think there's more to all this than meets the eye. Barcelona should have let him go when he asked to last summer. There's an interesting article here about the idea of him playing for free, you may have read it already https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2021/aug/10/messis-exit-shows-players-are-abottom-of-footballs-power-structure-barcelona Either way, he's still one of the top three footballers I've seen in my lifetime, possibly the best but Diego has something to say about that... I have been to Barcelona a few times but not in the last twenty years so have missed the effigies.

No problem with him crying at all, looked genuinely upset to me. I'd hoped we'd got beyond belittling people for showing emotion whatever you think of the situation and the man concerned.

Sabu - Message To Chicago [Trio/Octave Lab, Japan 2021]

now onto disc 2

and finally Don Friedman Quartet featuring Attila Zoller - Dreams And Expectations [Riverside, 1965, mono]

You did, thanks. They needed an airing, well worth the time

Attila Zoller Quartet - Horizon Beyond [Emarcy, 1966]

Attila Zoller/Don Friedman - Metamorphosis [Saba, Germany 1966]

That's a nice one, preferably without the jab side effects though. Hope they subside soon.
