En esto no había caído pero me lo ha comentado el Indio (vía la revista Ruta 66). Nick Lowe escribió "(What´s So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love & Understanding" (1974) para Brinsley Schwarz, inspirado principalmente en "Jesus Was a Cross Maker" de Judee Sill. Ese tipo de conexiones que parecen imposibles o poco probables que muchas veces pasan desapercibidas y gustan tanto a J.V.

En la whiskypedia citan a Lowe: "Tuve la increíble previsión de no estropearla con frases inteligentes o estúpidas. 'Sólo deja que el título un poco torpe haga el trabajo', era la idea. La idea estaba en el título. Tenía una buena sintonía para ella. Y dejé que el título hiciera el trabajo. Y fue increíble. Hoy en día, mirando hacia atrás, estoy asombrado de haberlo hecho". La producción de Dave Edmunds, según Lowe, le dio al tema 'un gran sonido completo'".

La canción fue publicada originalmente en 1974 en el álbum "The New Favourites of… Brinsley Schwarz" y fracasó como sencillo. En 1978 la versionó el gran fan de B. Schwarz, Elvis Costello.

Si sigues sin conseguir salir de la Simulación tras haber leído la entrada anterior, espera a leer esto...:

. . . . Imagino que David Chalmers no necesita presentación. Otrosí, whiskypedia. En este paper de 2017 argumenta que los Sims son reales, no son objetos ficcionales, sino reales, con entidad propia. Tal cual. 💥 View this document on Scribd     En este otro paper recién publicado (2024), PAWEŁ GRABARCZYK va más lejos aún: afirma que toda entidad “virtual” es FÍSICA. Tal cual. 😮 . . View this…

大家都知道，小亨利三生有幸早早地就混進威士忌達人學院，拜首席顧問暨執杯大叔林一峰大師交遊廣闊之賜，也曾與查爾斯碰上一面、喝上一杯。 其人也，爽朗熱情，以酒會友，痛快！大家一杯接著一杯，一句連著一句，杯杯都是威士忌，句句必然蘇格蘭。印象中，友人問起格蘭花格的用桶與熟成酒窖相關問題，只見他微微ㄧ笑，信步走到吧檯上要了一杯格蘭花格，只見他低頭輕輕一嗅，接下來就像是點進了資料庫般，霹靂啪啦～霹靂啪啦～滔滔不絕，聽得我們是如癡如醉，紛紛也去「下載」一杯花格；後來得知他還幫忙挑選臺灣限定的單桶，想來因緣在此。而我自己則是比較喜歡花格15年倒在大冰塊上的表現，喝多少倒多少，輕搖三下一口悶，香甜肉桂薑母糖，極好極好。 感恩有心人發大力將此著作從英文翻成中文，一到手便從封面第一個字W啃起，直到封底最後一字恩。信達雅三者皆備之外，私以為千萬別僅把它當工具書來看���從這本書可以看到一個人的熱情、認真、作學問的態度，更讓人看到蘇格蘭威士忌的廣闊、豪雄以及未來的霸圖！ ～Slainte Mhath～ ​#威士忌聖經 #whiskypedia #查爾斯麥克萊恩 #charlesmaclean #支彧涵譯 ＃元亨利貞君子謙謙 ＃letusdrinksomethinggood ＃威士忌達人學院 ＃五感品酒 ＃理性飲酒感性品酒 https://www.instagram.com/p/CcNjv65hXEn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
