Couldn't quite get the light right with this but still...a very sepulchral #Venice

#NowListening Carlo Rustichelli's score for Mario Bava's magnificent 'Sei donne per l'assassino' (or, if you prefer, 'Blood and Black Lace').

Laid back, noir-ish, jazzy and a worthy companion to the film.

A very serene Mimi for #Caturday

Goodnight #Venice

Promo video for the new John Carpenter album is pretty much everything you'd want it to be...

youtube.com/watch?v=TDBnBd…

Stacked cast? For me, it's always going to be Hell Drivers : Stanley Baker, Herbert Lom, Peggy Cummins, Patrick McGoohan, Sean Connery, Alfie Bass, Sid James, David McCallum, William Hartnell, Gordon Jackson...

#NowListening John Carpenter, 'Lost Themes 4 : Noir'. Now, if you've heard Lost Themes 1 - 3, you kind of know what to expect. But Carpenter knows how to do this whole 'soundtrack to imaginary films' malarkey better than anyone.

Silly mistake at line 5 but the streak just about continues. #Wordle 1,049 6/6

I know...'cos I was there...

And a very Happy Publication Day to Douglas Skelton !

#NowListening OST 'I Clan dei Siciliani' - starring Delon, Gabin and Ventura yet somehow I haven't seen it. Drop-dead cool score by Morricone, though!

Wishing Tom Benjamin a very Happy Publication Day for 'Last Testament in Bologna', the fifth instalment of a terrific series. See you in Florence next week, Tom!

Hmm…probably should have done better. #Wordle 1,048 5/6

Dinner tonight : Palombo con piselli alla romana. Or, if you prefer, huss/dogfish with peas and tomato sauce. Lovely!

A great book, and the start of an excellent series. A bargain at 99p!

Good afternoon #Venice !

This thread is utter genius.
