Rolling Stone's 149th greatest album of all time
A good 70s rock album, with the Latino elements a refreshing change from the norm. I have fond memories of this album, as when Jellybean released version in 1987 my Dad frequently felt he had to educate us by dusting off his vinyl to play the Santana version. We used to pretend it was dreadful and we loved the Jellybean version, even though it is clearly dreadful.

Hmm

Well I've had this on my Kindle for about six years now and honestly, after finishing it, I'm wondering why it's taken me so long to getting around to reading it.

It ended a little too abruptly but I enjoyed this story. It's been a while since I read a book where the characters controlled the elements so it was a nice change.

I'm looking forward to the other three brother's stories

"Though the film takes place over a short period of time, you feel that the infinite is expressed in that one night. The elegance, the style, the decadence, and the existential crisis of everyone on-screen—all of those elements are so powerful when they are combined. There’s an intensity that can be generated by compressing the time frame of a film, and La notte is one of the great examples of that."
