Nonetheless, when people send me things (for which I'm grateful!) I feel obliged to at least write a small impression here, hence the brevity and lack of scope.Brian Olewnickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08567239067604835372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-21485456638097695722008-03-28T08:06:00.000-04:002008-03-28T08:06:00.000-04:00Interesting that the sections of Red Rose that you...Interesting that the sections of Red Rose that you do like are those that resemble most the textures of Virtuous Circles but also you find them too rambling. I would say "rambling" is what they represent fairly well (I am a bit of a nomad, so why should my work not reflect that?)--but Red Rose is far more dynamic in range and materials and just quite, quite different in tone and manners, for good reasons. I really would have liked you're Virtuos Circles review to have given a take on the writing contained therein. Thanks none the less for taking your time. <BR/>regards, jg <BR/>www.futurevessel.com/orphansoundtransparent abelardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07143780738846567987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-20237370060860335322008-03-28T06:28:00.000-04:002008-03-28T06:28:00.000-04:00brian, just found the review of virtuous circles.t...brian, just found the review of virtuous circles.<BR/>thanks,<BR/>jefftransparent abelardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07143780738846567987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-23544726829872813412008-03-28T06:24:00.000-04:002008-03-28T06:24:00.000-04:00hi brian, if "virtuous circles" was in fact an ear...hi brian, if "virtuous circles" was in fact an early favorite, did you happen to write something about it somewhere? it never made it my way if you did. i would appreciate any comments you might have, especially since you make a comparison. i say it not only for your readers but for my edification. btw, the cover of "red rose for the sinking ship" folds out to display a series of very rare propaganda posters from maoist china. <BR/><BR/>www.futurevessel.com/orphansoundtransparent abelardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07143780738846567987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-29105855885773988372008-03-21T05:31:00.000-04:002008-03-21T05:31:00.000-04:00i also happened to listen to kostis kilymis just ...i also happened to listen to kostis kilymis just because it "happened" to "accompany" the release of alfredo costa monteiro with pascal battus much more interesting, real, challenging and musical (by any means) paper work and i find it quite dull and un-true..maybe the problem being that it is quite....good and nothing beyond that..the thing is that everybody's comments on such.....music-items( ihm non-musicians) seem to meet on that conclusion=quite good-not badAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28154988.post-54794400778368148952008-03-20T10:52:00.000-04:002008-03-20T10:52:00.000-04:00Thirding Kostis Kilimis's work.
