[edit] April 5

[edit] Rolling Stones fans

In both the Let it Bleed article and the Delia Smith article, it states that Delia baked the "cake" that appears on the cover of the Rolling Stones album. I don't believe this. Can anyone refute it for me? Thanks (a Delia fan). --87.194.21.177 20:01, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Why don't you believe it ? StuRat 20:32, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Out of interest I did a google search and all the sources I can find seem to back up the claim that she made the cake. This and this seem to be the most reputable sources for this piece of trivia. Let's be avin ya!  Sʟυмgυм • т • c  20:34, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Okay, the Daily Mail bit is better than anything I'd seen. I'm coming round to the idea. Maybe. --87.194.21.177 00:13, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
I read an interview where she talked about it. Apparently, it was just a job she had at the time. Somebody needed a fancy cake, so she baked a fancy cake. I don't think she even knew what it was for. risk 14:28, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Piano Music in film: Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma

In the movie Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma, someone plays a piece of music on the piano that sounds like if it starts with the B-A-C-H motif (I'm not sure if its exactly b-a-c-h because I have no perfect ear). Does anyone know what music is played there at the piano, and who has composed it?

Thanks --helohe (talk) 22:03, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

I did see the movie years ago, but don't intend to repeat the experience. I don't remember the music you mentioned. The music for the film was by Ennio Morricone, and I'd be surprised if it wasn't by him. JackofOz 01:50, 9 April 2007 (UTC)=April 5=
