Please check out this months episode of 4Fusion Friday on Sea of Tranquility. This month's guest is Len Davis from Bitches Brew Radio which you can hear on M-XCloud. Check out his show too!

Nice, thanks for checking out the Simon Phillips, amazing disc.
I'm a few listens in, (not sure it has all come together for me yet), but I am really enjoying it. A lot of instrumental moments which I really enjoy, but will be spending a lot of time with this...
They both have moved on, Martin seems happy doing his own thing. I don't know what happened between these two, but relationships do end. Tull has had a revolving door of members for years and...
I’ve really enjoyed “Spirit of Eden” and “Laughing Stock” over the last few days. I never knew much about the band to be honest, but hearing all the praise after Mark’s passing, I decided to give...
First and foremost, a huge thank you to Rob, Chad, and all the staff along the way. You created an amazing festival for the fans year after year, of which we are all grateful.
Memories, there are...
I do wish Dweezil was involved, he’s been keeping the music out there and doing a great job of it. I’m going, as this is a great lineup, and any chance to hear Frank’s music live is a must.
Happy does a great job, saw them live last year, went in as a doubter, and came out as a believer. They were excellent.
I'm also a huge fan, and my first listen was "As The World". It blew me away, and I've been following them ever since. I remember it took awhile to warm up to CPF for me, but it eventually connected....
Fugazi has such a harsh sound, I hate the production.
Saw them in Albany Wednesday night, and was blown away. I've seen SMB, but never a Dregs show. Wow!
I've seen him live many times, and the show he puts on is phenomenal.
I don't see this thread complaining or bitching. I'm glad he's having success at this stage in his career.
I'm a huge fan,...
I'm a huge Hackett fan. I've seen him many times live, and would never miss a show that comes through my area.
As for his most recent studio output, it has not connected. I love a lot of his solo...
Thankfully, Tony plays a lot in my area, and I never miss a chance to see him. I have a Stickmen release and Double Espresso, and enjoy them both.
I saw them twice recently, really good live, don't miss them if you're a fan.
Saw them this summer with Jason Bonham (opening) and Foreigner. I've seen them a few times before, and they are a good live band. Unfortunately, they did about 4-5 new songs and totally lost the...
Damn.....no Albany show, wish this was coming to The Egg.
Love that you guys are working on this together. Keep it going. I'm getting back into it, and it's a blast. It's hard to find those blocks of time you need to really do a good job. I always end up...
Great documentary and a fitting tribute to those great musicians.
Surya is one of favs. R.I.P
Enjoying Evermore, look forward to hearing what you guys come up with.
I wish Jimmy could move on as Plant and Jones have done. Plant & JPJ have forged on and continue to be creative, while Jimmy has gone dormant unfortunately. I don't think Jimmy has been able to let...
King Crimson - The Egg, Albany. Best show
Brand X
John McLaughlin/Jimmy Herring
He wrote some great and catchy tunes that rocked. R.I.P
Bob Stinson of the Replacements was a huge Yes/Steve Howe fan
I think it's sad that after all the years of playing together, it seems Martin deserved better treatment. Why can't two people just sit down, talk things out, shake hands and move on?
If Ian...
I'm a Dregs fan, have them all.....love them all. Got tix for their spring tour, can't wait!
Heard one I really enjoyed yesterday on our local classical station
Symphonie Espagnole, OP.21
Composer: Lalo
Soloist:Tianwa Yang
Thanks everyone. Tonight, while I'm working mega-OT on a project, I'm going with Stravinsky: Le Sacre du Printemps
Thanks for all the suggestions, I will work my way through them.
RIP Malcolm. Such memorable riffs, great straight ahead rock-n-roll. Rhythm guitar is so generally underrated, but his parts were so integral. My mother in law lived for 8 years after her diagnosis,...
I am delving more deeply into classical music. I know many here enjoy classical, and many Prog bands take influence and even cover some pieces.
Please post your favorite composer, favorite piece...
Nice!
I have to check him out, sounds right up my alley.
Fantastic. I hope they are working on new music, fingers crossed.
Nice!
Got my Tix for Albany this morning, I am so excited to see this reunion!
Thanks Robert. It should be said that you did a great job in championing the festival, and I enjoyed our conversations. I'm sure it was a thrill for you and your band to play on that stage and...
I have the first one and really like it. Never got LOA, but should check it out.
I have enjoyed reading this thread, great back and forth, a lot of passion in our community. Some thoughts for what it is worth:
1. I wanted this festival to be a success. I would probably have...
Saw Brand X last night in Albany. It was my first time seeing them, loved the show. Goods all seemed to be having a blast, obviously all are very talented musicians, but really enjoyed the...
I love Tull, and own everything the band has released. That being said, there are many I don't listen to anymore, and Stormwatch is one of those. I don't understand the trilogy or connection to the...
Always enjoyed his music, over the years grew to appreciate what a great songwriter he is. His songs are Earworms, great hook after great hook. So very sad we have lost another great one. He always...
I need to revisit this one. I always turn to Epilogue for my Anglagard fix. I remember how blown away I was when I first heard their music. It continues to give me chills to this day, Epilogue is one...
I also prefer a seated show, but have no problem standing. Luckily, at 51, no major issues for me at this point physically. I also play in a band (for fun these days), so I am used to standing for...
I saw Marillion last November at Keswick Theater, thought they were fantastic. Had to travel as they had not played in my town since Season's End tour (yes....that long ago). I was just glad to see...
Love Zappa, but I won't support this venture.
Dweezil has worked hard to keep his Frank's music alive. Dweezil gets my money, not this.
I get an XTC vibe in some of the choruses of the songs. Lead vocals will take some getting used to, right now, not sure I will buy, but I continue to stream. Certainly will not miss them live.
The...
Stay strong Frank, positive thoughts and prayers to you.
Nothing mentioned, but the organizers seem responsive on social media. I'm sure someone will bring that question to them.
Echolyn was the main draw for me, first and foremost are best wishes and a full recovery for Chris. Secondly, good luck to the organizers, hoping they find a good replacement.
Miriodir - 2002 (had never heard them before that show, and was blown away)
Camel - 2003
Anglagard - 2003
Porcupine Tree - 2001
Happy The Man - 2000
Many, many honorable mentions: echolyn,...
October 12th, The Egg in Albany NY!!!! Tickets on sale to Egg members only (and yes, I already have mine). Not sure when they go on sale to the public.
I've never seen Brand X live, very excited.
Congrats, very happy to hear that the festival will happen.
Saw them at the Van Dyke last time through.....thanks, I'll be at this show too!
I love King Crimson, but there are certain era's or specific albums I don't listen to. My experience with KC is that it often didn't click right away. They were one of the harder bands for me to get...
It would be interesting now if Gabriel had been willing to "share" HTM.
I get both sides, Peter was an established artist, but was building his solo career. To allow HTM to do their own thing...
They are great live,and I will see them again if they come through my area, very powerful.
Is there a plan C? Festival has been stuck on 23% since the extension. Saw they recently changed the host hotel, so it seems the wheels are still turning.
I can see myself making a road trip for this, I've seen the Steve Morse Band, but never a Dregs show.
