I hate the 2 Wes Anderson movies I've seen (that one & Life Aquatic) about as much as I hate Groundhog Day.
In fact, I can't think of anything I've liked with Bill Murray post-SNL.
I don't agree that the fact of Goodspeak's occupation qualifies that as a "personal attack." If questioning others' choices is verboten, that closes down lots of opportunities for engagement/discussion.
You know, even though I love both the artists, for some reason that one doesn't really work for me. Maybe I'm not often in the mood for something so moody and low key. I much prefer the duos with Bollani.
I was at that show.
The Black Saint/Soul Note box is a no brainer for any Rava fan who doesn't already own the material.
I love Rava. I first saw him ca. 1976 with Rudd & Hod O'Brien at the club they ran, St. James Infirmary. Sheila Jordan may have been there the same night.
