Thought I'd post this here,

For any of you Curtis Mayfield fans out there Monkey has recorded an interview with the man that was put out on Jazz FM with Paul Jones before his last gig here in 1990.

Thanks Monkey,it was well worth an hour of my time!

I can’t stand Brunello Ciccinelli for the absolutely ridiculous prices. Anybody who buys his stuff is just enabling this off the charts gouging.

This luxury market has been discused here before. I guess brands like BC have their niche market (like Prada, Valentino, Tom Ford, Helmut Lang...), guys that wear those garments just because they can afford it, mostly as a pure symbol of status. People that usually replaces taste with money. Some of those companies make clownish ill-fitting garments on purpose (hey, we're avant-garde!), others make hit-or-miss stuff, with NOTHING in the design or fabrics departments that justifies the astronomical prices. If I had the money to afford those brands, I'd go bespoke for everything.
