Rolling Stone's 24th greatest album of all time
Brilliant intelligent and thought-provoking soul album. Higher Ground has to be one of the best feelgood soul songs, and Living for the City certainly becomes more topical once again with the discussions ongoing on systemic racism, being about a young black man arriving in New York for the first time, and quickly being arrested and imprisoned for accidentally walking down the wrong street and being approached by the wrong person.

"This is a great glimpse into early immigrant life in New York City seen through the lens of food and cohabitation. It gives a picture of where we came from and how we have become the fusion culinary culture we are today. For me, it feels as though I’m seeing the world through my grandparents' eyes as they traveled from Poland and Lithuania through Ellis Island, finally settling in Chicago. It helps paint a picture of my personal past."

"After spotting a then-unknown Delphine Seyrig in a New York theater production, director Alain Resnais cast her as the female lead of his superb and enigmatic meditation on time and memory, then enlisted Chanel to transform his ingenue into a star. The exquisite gowns she designed are integral to the film’s highly influential visual design, and Chanel and Seyrig began a long-lasting friendship, united by mutual respect and their devotion to the cause of women."

"Preston Sturges at his best. This was the first of his films I ever saw, in a revival at the Regency in New York, and it was a revelation. You’ve never heard dialogue so funny or move so fast. Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda are hysterical, and it has maybe my favorite line ever in a movie—Fonda asks a fancy old society lady at a dinner party if he’s missed anything. She says, “The fish was a poem.”"

Track

"Me and my girlfriend couldn’t get this song out of our heads for a whole flight to New York. All we knew was the riff. When we landed, I ended up playing the melody on the piano and sending it as a voice note to my pals, asking ‘What the fuck is this song?’ I just knew it was a vaguely cheesy dance thing from the early 2000s that would have been on an Ibiza Creamfields-type compilation."
