ok before posting my review, here are some explications (as usual, sorry in advance for my bad english) :
I work at french public TV channel.
I am not a journalist, I am a technician.
But during last year I had the chance to write on the site "culturebox"
https://culturebox.francetvinfo.fr/and indeed my first article was for tracker release in 2015 :
https://culturebox.francetvinfo.fr/musique/mark-knopfler-part-en-tournee-avec-tracker-un-albumtranquille-217869this was admitted by the "chief", but at the end of year, it made some problems with other journalists, so I had to stop writing and publishing
Since last december, I haven't write again yet. And I started my own blog on facebook 2 weeks ago :
https://www.facebook.com/TextBlogRNRoll/Next week I wil be able to write again, but limited : only 2 articles per month, and not what I want, but what the chief says to me.
my next two articles will be about 2 french artists (Miossec and Dominique A) that I don't like that much, but now it's no more a hobby it's a (second) job
So why am I telling you to you ?
Because I am in a very tigh situation, and I must be very carreful about what I do, what I say, etc...
I would love to write about Mark' next album, and I have already ask for, but it's not sure at all
So this morning I wrote to a contact I have at Universal france, and I asked him if he had a link to listen to the album.
He replied and sent it to me at the end of the afternoon.
What should I have done ? saying nothing and listen to the album ? or saying it here on AMIT, and yes I knew it would generate frustrations...
a dilemme...
I chose to share with you my impressions on my first listen, but I can NOT share the link.
I know you are all great devoted fans, but I can't take any risk regrading my situation.
I apologize for this and hope you all understand my decision
so now let's go for music...
I am curently listen to it for the 2nd time, and I will write something, but it takes a little time. be patient...
