Shazot, woulda liked to seen them, what's the new technique for hearing about the shows? Apparently I've missed the secret handshake.
off topic but an interesting read about the early Crim: https://musicaficionado.blog/2017/06/13/cadence-and-cascade-by-king-crimson/
The violinist is Evan Garr, saw him with Al DiMeola in Annapolis Md a little while back. After the concert, Al told the audience the back story of Evan joining his band.
Evan showed up at Toronto...
I Robot - Alan Parsons Project - all versions, CD, LP, half speed re-master.
Off topic here --- Steve I sent you a message on the ProgEars wire
If you're looking for something along the lines of that tower in Pisa, Shadow's yer man.
Ditto.... +1 just got mine in the mail too and digging it a bunch, hearing the inspired playing and compositions on the CD makes me think this'll be a great show.
I spent a lot of time reading opinions before diving back into a turntable, this isn't an audiophile forum so I refrain from injecting too much. Opinions on both sides, but lots of studio engineers...

I'm the guy who called you 'stamper of the hands extraordinaire' at Orion shows. Usually carrying craft beer rewards for Mike.
Bless you Steve ....

since re-entry into the world of vinyl, my enjoyment of listening to music has been re-ignited big time, I just hope the bashing doesn't dissuade those considering trying vinyl from investigating....
Sitting on the screen porch here in CapeMayPoint, heard a bobwhite calling loudly, so I emulated his call -- the bugger came running across the lawn to investigate. What a big curious critter he is,...
thanks for the pointer, I have a couple of Bobby's and like em, 1976's 'The view from the inside' is nother goodie.
If you like vibes check out Milt Jackson's Sunflower from 1972 on CTI - another...
My favorites are also 'First Pull Up Then Pull Down' (named after the instructions on those paper toilet seat cover thingies) and 'Burgers'.
So many great tunes spread across the catalog, the...

I have a family beach house in Cape May Point one of the birding hot spots of the East Coast. Mostly just accidently birdwatch, see Ospreys diving for fish while I'm angling, the fall raptor...
Most of the recent release vinyl I've bought (and it aint much) has been sonically meh. I have Graham Nash's latest, Joe Bonnamassa's latest for two examples. Got to thinking, Pink Floyd's latest...
We have a 'Record Show' every month here in B'more, about 50 dealers, everthing from $2 bargjn bin to $50 Blue Note rarities. The value of Record Show is the people and dealers I've met there that...
^^ this is so true, I never knew BloodRock 2 was proggy, or that Donald Byrd had a fusion period, etc, taking a $3 chance on something has opened my horizons many times. The affordability of used...
Over that last 8 years or so I've been buying a lot of used records, I always take them out of the cover and visually inspect. Almost all of the Prog I'm finding is in excellent shape, I'm...
Assuming this was the Tower Theatre show, I was there for the 2nd night. PTree had just signed with Atlantic Records (Yes's label too) so I suppose the label got them on the bill to promote.
The...
Any of the ECM labels recordings, Pat Metheny, John Ambercrombie, Ralph Towner, are all terrific recordings. Still finding these in the shops for reasonable prices.
Moving up the spending chain...
Hmmm, I find Remedies roughly in the same neighborhood as GrisGris, voodoo swamp psych.

Possibly you're not familiar with early porcupine tree? Albums like Stupid Dream or In Absentia are in that general description. Lots of samples on youtube. Try Even Less which opens Stupid Dream.
Godspeed Alphonse.
Will always remember driving up to the London Ale house in Wildwood NJ for a 11th house concert 1974 or so. Out front catching a smoke was Alphonse, unmistakable in his hat and...
What a treat last night at Orion, every song, Viking prog - what's in that Swedish water?
No doubt will be buying all Necromonkey recordings, they're an autobuy for me just like Gosta Berlings...
Nice show, combination of Electric stuff from his latest album, his back catalog, some RTF and some acoustic Beatles.
My tastes would have run towards more of his solo stuff, but all in all a nice...
Thanks to this thread, I re-spun this, excellent disc, like a stew of Flora Purim era Return to Forever doing Soft Machine songs with an occasional organ solo from Manfred Mann.
'Who is the hero' and 'high in the morning' off Somebody's Watching are two great examples of the softer melodic side of the bird, love em.
I put together a cassette of Rare Bird with the best off...
Any of these words would be better than landscaping to an English speaking audience:

Katsumi - enjoy your Earth Explorer album a lot.
Just wanted to point out, someone may have keyed 'groundbreaking' into a Japanese-English translator and it returned 'landscaping' - You could find...
Sorry for the late to the thread, I was at this show and camped out in the parking lot the night before, no food water or blanket. somebody broke into a tractor trailer on the lot which was full of...
A friend brought this over round 1971 and we listened to it front to back twice. Instantly smitten, orange sunshine probably enhancing appreciation. I'd already been exposed to Lick my decals off.

That would be my recommendation too, especially since Yves is looking for a Psych influence. Great record.
I haven't been affected this much by one of my musical hero's passing since Hendrix died. Same sense of great loss to the world of music.
Co-worker found this on a file-sharing website, I've been listening to it for a couple of weeks. Excellent stuff, as she's maturing as an artist I'm hearing more melody and song structure to go along...
Recently got back into vinyl and picked up a bunch of old Steeleye albums.
Was surprised to find by far my favorite was their first 'Hark the village wait', which features two sublime vocalists,...
You lads are in for a treat, caught the Hackett tour in Wilmington Delaware last night. Must say I've seen Steve about 10 times over the years and this is one of the top performances, the band he's...
Still remember the day my cousin picked my up to drive to the shore and told me Jimi had died, we were both very bummed.
Only thing I might add to this thread is how very hard Jimi worked to...
Richard Burmer 'Bhakti Point' delivers the spacey goods.
There's spacey program on Philly's WXPN, the website is http://www.xpn.org/xpn-programs/echoes --the host of the program posts here occaisonally, they have various 'best of ' lists, samples etc.

Playing Tales of Topographic Oceans backwards, at the 83 minute mark, I hear a whispering chant of 'Jon is dead'.
Thanks for summing up my thoughts exactly. Since the original was an import only here in the states, it had the rarity factor too, until it got re-released.
Thought I was over listening to these...
During the 'In the Round' tour in 1981, I experienced something new that I'd never heard at a concert before - over half of the audience singing along with the songs. Ruining it for me, I wanted to...
Bill Bruford used a cracked cymbal he found in the garbage for the Red album. He liked the way it sounded, I do too.
Third Stone from the Sun, we did some trading, can't remember what tho. richmon.
Most probably Discipline will be vibrating your recliner.
^ This - Ankedoten does prog cover versions of Horror movie soundtracks. Great mellotron work.
As an aside, you prolly could find a lot of these recomendations on Youtube. Copy the URL from the...
You might give Heritage a try, no cookie vox and no death metal power riffing. I like it a bunch.
David Crosby - If I could only remember my name
Stills Young Band - Long may you run
Been buy alot of cheap vinyl lately, lots of Stills Solo, Crosby and Nash etc - the two above are the best of...
Ed's account has been hacked! Somebody's typing touchy-feeley Mr Sensitive postings pretending to be Ed!
Both bands were tip top excellent, great show.
