Look in My Diary - Reparata & the Delrons

Sunday 25th May 2003: Hidden under the pillow, a leather-bound, guilt-edged, tear-stained girl-pop teenage classic.

The only diaries I've ever read are the Hitler diaries, Bobby Robson's diary of the 1981 season and my sister's diary from 1986. I get them mixed up.

8th November 1923: Me and Alfredsenberg organised a little beer hall shake-up. The press were hovering vulture-like after our four straight losses at the start of the season. We were sitting ducks. I jumped onto a table and fired one or two shots into the ceiling. Backs were against the wall. Mum and Dad let me stay up to watch the Thorn Birds.

Sabato Triste - Adriano Celentano

You like champagne? I'll buy you a bottle. I'm in the top 5 per-cent of the sales force. Wanna come back to mine and listen to some Italian music?

Adriano Celentano, actor, director and Italy's top rock star, played a singer in Fellini's La Dolce Vita.

Fellini's 8 1/2 started a trend for self-referential cinema about film directors. The pick of the genre is Un Gatto Nel Cervello (A Cat in the Brain), a film-within-a-film about cannibalism, gross violence against kittens and, of course, a neurotic film director trying to complete his masterwork.

I will never eat steak tartar again.

Manifesto & Book News

If it's ever been on K-Tel or Ronco, it's in. If it features hand claps, cow bells, syrupy orchestration, walls of sound, wrecking crews, sha-la-las, toothy teen idols, candy-based metaphors for carnal acts or lyrics about hugging, squeezing and rocking all night long, it's in.
