I ' D LIKE TO TELL YOU ABOUT CESARE

Aperitivo radio show was so far a place for entertainment, small talk and fantasy. What i want to tell you about is unfortunatly reality. For once i want to take advantage of this place for something important.

I'D LIKE TO TELL YOU ABOUT CESARE BATTISTI.

I don't know Cesare Battisti personnaly, the first thing that i know is that i read his novels since the first published (les habits d'ombre, 1993, Gallimard Série Noire), i like them.
Could i say that i that like a man through his novels, may be in a way, eventhough novels can't give reality its truth.
The second thing that i know is that he was once a member of the PAC (proletaires armés pour le communisme, Armed proletarian for communism), long ago, a time of low level civil war, in Italy. Is this post the place to talk about the History, i dont think so, it is a complex one, you can't talk about it in a post, you need an entire book.
The third thing is that in 1985, French President Mitterand welcome all past italian militant, it was a way to affirm that those days in italy were days of civil war, political acts.
The fourth is that according to french laws, one can not be judged for the same fact unless there are new elements. In 1991 the French court (Cour d'appel de Paris) stood that they can't agree to the italian government request to send Cesare Battisti back to Italy.
The fifth is that the night of 10th february 2004, i was in front of my computer screen and received a mail, "Cesare Battisti has been arrested this morning", this mail made me cry my tears out, you can't imagine how sad and angry i was.
Despite point three and four he was arrested, and threaten to be send back in Italy, in jail for the rest of his life (In Italy people who were judged without being present at their trial don't have the right to be a new one. By the time of his trial, Cesare was in Mexico and not aware of it).
Why was he arrested that 10th february, why did the french police arrest him ?
Because he had threaten one of his neighbour. We now know that this was a lie, just a lie to find an excuse to arrest him.

It is nearly two years now that Cesare is on the run, without any hope to see his daughters, his family and friends in France or in Italy. That's why this morning i bought his latest book, not a novel but some kind of a testimony. Having the book in my hands, i had the feeling getting in touch with an old lost friend, strange isn't it. I didn't buy tranquility with this book, for that i'd like to thank you Cesare.

How can someone help in this situation, you are your own judge, but this post is the least i can do.

Hope to meet you, one day in your everyday life, in a peacefull time, Cesare my friend.

TWO BELOVED ONES TO FIGHT THE CURSE

It makes two weeks now that i wasn't able to broadcast the aperitivo radio show, first one because of a flu, second one because of elements in fury, but i won't let you down.

Let's talk about two unique artists. First one is Daniel Johnston, call him a freak if you want to, but his music makes me cry my tears. Haunting, touching, unique melodys coming straight from his heart, songs about the loss of a true love, about King kong, about Casper the friendly ghost (i'm not kidding, a great one). Since the first time i heard one of his song , think it was speeding motorcycle, Daniel Johnston gain a truly special place in my heart. I used to think of him as some kind of a secret we shared with some friends, but now it is time for him to meet a lot more friends.

The devil and daniel Johnston is a documentary about the man, showed at the sundace festival last year it won the audience award best documentary , and the best director award. Just have a look at the trailer and the site dedicated to the movie. And go to the movie when it is out.

Second is the great Nina simone. I have told you in a previous show how much i love her music (I played Poppies in this show).

Nina Simone is grace, power, sensibility, beauty, animality. She made politics, love and groovy song, she was simply amazing. Thanks to David F's blog i saw this video, two songs (four women and save me) shot by Jean Christophe Averty during the Antibes jazz festival in 1969, at this time her artistic director was Weldon Irvin, he played organ on this show.

Four women, no, far more, i don't remember who said that Nina Simone was every women, in a way it is true, she was a fantasy, i mean so extraordinary that finally unreal for those who didn't had the chance to see her on stage. But now you can.

Have you ever see a human animal at a concert. I mean let's talk about John Spencer for example, he is a gorilla for sure with his brutal sexual appealing, Brian Auger is a grizzly upon his Hammond B4, and Nina,....., Nina is a panther.

Just look the panther she was, she 's real.

Kiss caress and more untill next time

CAN'T BELIEVE IT - THE APERITIVO MALEDICTION

Do you believe it. I can't.
There must be some kind of curse, or that evil Ming build a machine to avoid the broadcast of the aperitivo radio show.
Last time i was ill, but this time Ming made it snow so hard on town it was impossible to reach the radio, no way to drive there.
So this week, no radio show.

Kiss caress and more untill next time

WHAT A FLU

I spent the end of the week in my bed with an awfull flu, as a consequence i was'nt able to go to the radio and broadcast the aperitivo radio show.
Waiting for next week why don't you have a listen to la spirale their new show is "Covered and covering jazz".

The image above is the work of Chris Ware, it is taken from his wonderfull Jimmy Corrigan.


Kiss, caress and more until next week
