    I was a die-hard King's X during the 'Out of the Silent Planet' - 'Ear Candy' era and saw every tour they did back then. My favorite show was with Masters of Reality (another great band!) opening on...

    'Elephant Talk'...

    'Elephant Talk' https://soundcloud.com/dmitry-ilugdin/elephant-talk from the unreleased 'Vision of Sound: The King Crimson Story' tribute album.

    Line-up:
    Dmitry Ilugdin - piano
    Eugene Sharikov -...
  3. WORLD TRADE had no hit songs (getting the...

    WORLD TRADE had no hit songs (getting the 'Revolution Song' video aired on MTV was probably as close to a 'hit' as they ever got) - that's why they were dropped by Polydor after only one album.
  4. Holdsworth's guitar disciples (Kotzen, Poland, Howe, Gabel)

    I remember getting Richie Kotzen's 'Inner Galactic Fusion Experience' in '95 and instantly digging it because it reminded me of my favorite Holdsworth period ca. late 70's/early '80s. Richie was...

    You must have some seriously high standards if 'World Trade' is "80's drivel." This album is a little too well crafted and intricate to be any sort of drivel.

    I'm a bit confused. Are you mentioning covering 'On the Loose' because it's supposed to be a WT song? The only 'On the Loose' I'm aware of is by Saga.

    An upstart prog band like World Trade doing a casino gig in the 80's sounds highly unlikely. Are you sure you opened for THE World Trade and not another band with the same name?
  11. I don't know what the hold up is on that one - I...

    I don't know what the hold up is on that one - I was looking forward to the album myself. But, this isn't the first album from that camp that was announced and never released. There is also the...

    Oh well. Billy wouldn't be the first musician to hate something about himself most fans greatly enjoy.

    Good thinking on BTagg - Toy Matinee fans should dig these guys. Nice sophisticated prog pop/rock.

    Another underrated band from that universe...

    How can he hate his voice on the debut - he's never sounded stronger! I can understand that he may associate unpleasant memories with that time period if he almost blew out his voice. But, it sounds...

    KG in YES would've been something! I like the WT and TM albums about equally but TM is definitely the more original sounding band of the two and musically more diverse.

    I didn't know Schellen was out. I think Jeff is still in - he may have missed the last show due to his commitments with Yazawa in Japan. But, AFJP hasn't been very active as of late - Payne was doing...

    You're probably not missing too much then - there are only 4 studios albums, the most recent ones being 'Acid Test' (2007) and 'The Morbid Tango' (2017). They have always played live though despite...

    I think the s/t Unruly Child album from '92 is awesome but then again I'm a pretty big fan of AOR, particularly stuff that flew under the radar, which UC did. Mark (now Marcie) Free is one of the...

    I'll be more than a little excited if it involves the original line-up. Thanks for the heads up.

    You are correct, Sir. A great Syme piece it is, too https://www.discogs.com/release/1016692-World-Trade/images. Which he later 'revisited' for Dream Theater's 'Octavarium'...

    The Esquire '87 album is more pop and less hard rock oriented than World Trade, both in terms of musical style and production. Some really cool songs on that album as well though.

    I became a fan of Rabin's through his solo album, 'Wolf', so I wasn't pushing back any when I heard '90125' - although I could see why long-time Yes fans would reject the album. It sounds so unlike...

    I prefer World Trade to Lodgic but I've been meaning to pick up the Yesterrock CD re-issue of 'Nomadic Sands'.
  24. Speaking of YES, any fans of WORLD TRADE feat. Billy Sherwood on this board?

    I'm a big fan of Trevor Rabin era YES myself - the WORLD TRADE debut from '89 is almost like an extension from that period. Too bad the album never caught on and was ignored by the buying public...

    Well, as we all know, there is no justice in rock'n'roll. Did you talk the wife into letting you go to the Detroit show as well?

    'Acid Test' has a bit of a Tool vibe in places, especially the first two songs. My fave off AT is 'Hindenberg', probably one of the best things Jeff has ever written. Not particularly prog just a...

    Hi Arturs, I think what you saw that night when they played that AC/DC cover (usually 'Highway to Hell' if Mark Renk was in the house; Mark having done the 2002 Crumb Bros. album with Jeff and Shane)...

    Yes, he was and has only gotten better since. And Kevin (Chown) from Edwin Dare is now the bass player for Cosmosquad so 'The Morbid Tango' is kind of like a full circle moment a quarter century...
