Amusant, Manzanera qui fait le clavier ici, mais la seconde guitare sur la tournée... C'était d'ailleurs ma principale raison d'y aller : je pense que les deux peuvent plutôt bien s'entendre, musicalement. Sinon, pas grand chose à dire si ce n'est que la très belle pochette va être censurée dans la plupart des pays européens. (Elle serait porteuse de la grippe aviaire)

Ouha ! Pas mal le line-up, surtout le premier morceau avec CROSBY & NASH aux vocaux, je rêve !

Cette pochette là, censurée ? Et pourquoi ça ?!?

Merci Plouplaï, tu es un père pour moi !
