Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Yay - great album, Grant!

On LP ...
Then I was utterly and totally besotted by this. Not everyone's cuppa, I'm sure, but for the ultimate intelligent chillout .... and assuming you love the sound of the saxophone ....

Lol... So, what you're saying is that you'd like her to blow on your 'trumpet'?
Seriously though, Jerry, if you haven't got that album, GET IT, as you'd love it!

I can't find that album on Spotify or Tidal. Odd as it quite afew years old now.

A Big Bruckner Bash yesterday courtesy of Maestro Venzago ...
I do like his interpretations. A bit lightweight, but well paced and brimming with delicate orchestral detail. Far from the only view on these works, and Venzago has come in for some critical stick, but I enjoy it. The 4th doesn't quite work - it really does need a bit more grandeur, imo, and the playing is a bit scrappy, too, but the slow mvt of the 7th is particularly wonderful.

I'm often not a fan of the Emerson quartet, but this is superb in a high octane way ...
