Holy crap youi beat me to it. Judgment Night is the best movie soundtrack of all time.

I may have gone the wrong way on this. For curated soundtrack I’ll go with Last Action Hero.

Sovereign Suns, LFD Carajones, HVC Hot Cake Half Corona, need those short smokes in these temps.

Surprised no one has said Forrest Gump yet.

Love them both, slight nod to Hendrix, he changed the game. Prince was better than both though.

Absolutely love this cigar, but unfortunately i think i have enjoyed my last one and as I have none left and will not likely ever buy again. The price just isn't anywhere worth it anymore. Have replaced the Reyes with Sovereign Suns and AF Short Story, both of which I also think are great cigars. I do miss this little buggers though.

Did you catch your ol' lady. Messing with another man?

I have 2 answers to this question. First, as a total package soundtrack, has to be Rocky. But... the soundtrack that I listen to most is a film not many people have seen, but I love. Until the End of the World. Wim Wenders masterpiece. Honorable mention: Sucker Punch

🎶I've got sunshiiiiiiine on a cloudy daaaaayyyyy 🎶 Morning coffee and N4 Petit Corona

Get a good cigar tool with a spike, that would have saved a lot of Cubans that went in the garbage whole.

I reluctantly choose Clapton for no other reason than the body of work is so extensive. I've spent far more time listening to Eric than Jimi. Also, being a Joe, do you have any idea how many times I've been asked where am I going with that gun in my hand?

The Bodyguard and Saturday Night Fever are two highest selling movie soundtracks of all time.

We have a 24/7 James Bond channel. A dedicated thread on which Bond movies have the best theme song. There are a few that I would rank above the rest, but until that thread is published, I will remain silent.

Por Larrañaga Petit Corona (TOS MAY17).

1. Cigars taste very different at different times of day. Smoking in the morning / afternoon / after dinner can be quite different, and vastly different depending on what you’re pairing it with. 2. Check the draw and use a perfect draw if it’s tight (or pick another cigar) 3. Acclimatise with patience 4. Your opinion of a cigar is not wrong. (But bear in mind it’s important to acclimatise and store correctly) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think there’s confusion regarding soundtrack versus musical score. Either that, or I’m confused, which is completely possible. John Williams and Ennio Morricone created musical scores, not soundtracks, right?

Montecristo No.5 - RUP Nov 2020...

I like them a lot but maybe not enough to replace my current inventory when it runs out, given the price of Trinidad these days.

Ennio Morricone's work in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is personally hard to beat for me.

Too funny Ken. Of course you know that no-one is actually watching that documentary on Melania at the cinemas right now? So that was better than Rob's Super Bowl ZOOM event?

Jimi. Clapton is a legend, and I have always loved his stuff, especially with Cream. Hendrix is just a different beast, though. He utilized the guitar in ways that astounded even Clapton, melding Blues with psychedelia in a way that sounded like his literal voice was coming through the guitar. More importantly to me, he lived to craft soundscapes in the studio, pushing the barriers of what rock music could be. His creativity and ingenuity dwarf that of so many others. Others did similarly, and here I’m thinking immediately of Jimmy Page, but perhaps not to the extent of “newness” that Hendrix did.

San Cristóbal de la Habana El Príncipe, Por Larranaga Montecarlos, Montecristo No.5 and Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story. Ask me again in around four months time when it's actually winter in the the part of the world I live in!

Jimi 4 me.

Jimi Hendrix, no question. Even Eric Clapton has been quoted as saying that Jimi was the greatest. Eric is No.2 and Jimmy Page is No.3 most influential guitarists of the 20th century. Funnily enough, if Jimi were alive today, and he was asked if he was the greatest guitarist, he'd say "no!". If Jimi were to be asked who was the greatest musician of his time, he'd say, "Bob Dylan" without even blinking an eyelid. One wouldn't think that Bob Dylan influenced Hendrix's music but there you go!
