RSD 2020 release. Following the release of Milton Nascimento's Maria Maria (FARO 215LP), Far Out Recordings present Nascimento's 1980 follow-up. With the success of Maria Maria in 1976 behind them, Nascimento reunited with his writing partner Fernando Brant in 1980 to produce another ballet, Ultimo Trem (Last Train). This time, they chose to tackle a more contemporarily relevant subject, the impact of the closure of a train line that connected certain towns and cities in the North East of Minas Gerais to the coast. "The military government shut down the route and the whole region began to fade away," explains Milton. "I love train rides" adds the composer, "But today there are almost no trains to Brazil..." Featuring much of the same all-star line-up as Maria Maria -- including legendary Brazilian musicians Naná Vasconcelos, João Donato, Paulinho Jobim, and members of Som Imaginário, amongst many others, like Maria Maria, the album holds what Milton himself considers to be the definitive versions of some of his most beloved tracks, including "Saídas E Bandeiras" and "Ponte de Areia". The title track, "Ultimo Trem" -- performed exquisitely by Zezé Mota with a choir and piano -- is a mournful lament about the human consequences of the axed line. "A Viagem (The Trip)", launched with a train's steam whistle, sees Milton's guitar moving to a train's rhythm. "Bicho Homen (Beastly Man)" and "Decreto (Degree)" are atypically upbeat and funky, their vocals a mesh of wordless male voices resembling the then fashionable Swingles Singers' renderings of Bach. "E Daí? (And So What?)", and "Olho d'Agua (Water's Eye)" were both drawn from Clube Da Esquina (1972). The unusual "O Velho (The Old Man)" conjures up an image of an old shaman singing alone into the wind against the cries of nature. Perhaps the most affecting songs are Nascimento's "Itamarandiba" and "Oração (Prayer)". The latter is a cry for a change in the situation whilst "Itamarandiba" ends with an upbeat, whirling Hammond organ and guitar timepiece. The closing track "Ponta de Areia (Sand Edge)", was based on one of Fernando's newspaper stories and became one of Milton's most famous pieces, covered by musicians such as Wayne Shorter and Earth, Wind and Fire. After 27 years of being locked inside contracts and record company legalities, these sublime songs were finally released in 2003 as a double-CD package, along with Maria Maria. This is the first ever vinyl release, on limited edition red vinyl, for Ultimo Trem.Shipping Notes

Three really solid stories here.
Art is top notch. We get three really nice stories of pre-Punisher Frank, mid-Punisher Frank and the end of Punisher Frank. I look at this book a couple times a year and Garth Ennis really did a great job on the character. The art by Severin, LaRosa and Corben were all great and fitting for their stories. Good collection if you can find it. Highly recommend.

Vintage Castle
Garth Ennis renders one of his hectic stories with Frank Castle coming back to his origins. The first story deploys Frank's childhood and the unexpected consequences of it later on. I humbly believe the second part(The cell), is the best of this issue. It narrates the ultimate vengeance of Castle against those who took the lifes of his family, several years ago in the middle of a shooting at day light in Central Park. A mention must be done of the art in The Cell. The pencils of Lewis Larosa, the Inks & Finishes of Scott Koblish and Raúl Treviño's colors, leave nothing to desire and accomplish to portrait that classic look of Castle as a somewhat mature/old man still capable of hell when it comes to seek revenge for his family.
The End, however, which puts Castle in a dystopian future of a post-nuclear bombing, fails to blend smoothly Garth Ennis' script with the caricaturesque art from Richard Corben and Lee Loughridge. There is a dissonance between this very old Frank Castle in an apocalyptic environment and the drawings that for some reason maintain a gap with previous artists.
As a whole, From First to Last is totally worthy. Garth Ennis is back to team with Castle and that's all what counts.

This Is the Punisher
Format: Kindle
Punisher was supposed to be just a villain of the month, but there was always something there. Marvel never quite knew what to do with him, but Frank Castle had staying power. He still doesn’t fit into the Marvel universe, and he certainly doesn’t fit into the MCU, and these stories show exactly why. This is a great character and when handled correctly you get stories that stay with you. Garth Ennis knew how to tell those stories. I hope one day someone else will come along and give us more.
