Saga
I dig both of them
I was an early fan(first two albums), but he lost me at TMR. Good stuff to be had later on on Doc at the Radar Station.
Morte Macabre is from Sweden, not Italy
Zarek by Soncna Pot has some great Mellotron.
Billions. I will watch anything with Damian Lewis.
Not sure where else to post this, but italprogfan has passed away, as of March 2020. sorry for the late notice but I had to unlock myself
I believe Phil passed away this year.
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude!
Well more power to you IF you can find the band. What if the members are dead? What if they have no copies? Well then, if you really want the item, you have to deal with the harsh reality of the...
actually he posts quite a bit on Facebook, but it's mostly political, not music stuff.
I got into the Load because of the presence of amazing keyboard man Sterling Smith, who later turned up on Arthur Brown's Requiem LP, and has recorded with acts as diverse as J.D. Blackfoot and the...
My top guys are/were
John Gustafson(RIP)
Mont Campbell
Louis Cennamo
Glen Cornick(RIP)
John Entwistle(RIP)
Jack Bruce(RIP)
Les Holroyd
anything new from Doracor?
Ken, what was your involvement with Bodkin? was that just a distribution deal?
By now I'm sure you've heard about the Sounds Progressive actually being Raw Material doing cover versions of other...
I loved Barrock. Have all 3 plus the private cassette which I have no way to play anymore!
Is Mellotrongirl still here?
I think he gets banned for past transgressions. I have no problem with him, but not my call.
I take it that Bimba was another pseudonym for Wallace?
Yup. totally agree. RIP Clive.
I'm here! I just haven't been here, going through a nasty divorce which has taken up lots of my time. It should be over in February, if the worthless attorneys don't drag it out further. I see I...
Rhinos Winos and Lunatics is the funniest book I've ever read, bar none, and it matters not one bit if you even like the band or not. Deke is a much better writer than he ever was a guitarist.
An Italian dealer offered me a copy of this in the early 80s at an exhorbitant price. another collector I know bought it, so that shoots the 2001 theory!
add one more: Five day rain - s/t
very sad news. R.I.P. Mike.
OK, here is my vote. From the original list I would delete:
Abacus-s/t
Black Widow-Sacrifice
Colosseum-Daughter of Time
Fantasy-Beyond the Beyond and Paint a Picture
Frumpy-Frumpy
Titus...
Great idea Lev. Just curious where would you put the UK bands whose LPs were only released in other countries(Diabolus, Sunday, Odin, Message, I Drive, 2066 & Then etc. etc.)?
It should be, along with Ancient Grease's Women and Children First.
Who, exactly is we, Miroslaw? Sounds more like I.
no not at all. England is very Mellotron-heavy and on that alone deserves inclusion. To me it sounds as if it could have been recorded much earlier, as did Kestrel. Egg belongs because during the...
Yes, Kestrel belongs, date notwithstanding. A few others which could go on date notwithstanding are England's Garden Shed and Nostradamus by First Aid.
Agreed. and in so doing need to extend the timeline a bit, for things like Cornucopia, Eulenspygel etc.
I'll drink to that!
what is your plan?
My ticket was $27.50. Don't know what you're smoking
Not considered prog, are you effing kidding me? He's more prog than 99.99% of the bands discussed on this forum!
Got my ticket!
anytime!
as opposed to Tea & Symphony, the band on Harvest LOL
great song, but the Turtles did it soooo much better!
great. A cult of one. Close to the Edge is not progressive at all.
touché.
He didn't recommend either of those! But so nice of you to pass final judgment!
could you two just stop already?
If this belongs(and I have no argument)then their Morgan Blue Town labelmates Pussy should be as well.
whatever happened to Midnight-to-six?
I have to go with the Bee Gees "In my own time". Sounds like it belongs on Sgt. Peppers.
Agreed. The first time I heard her I thought she was the female counterpoint of Peter Hammill. She's more subdued on the second LP = less interesting.
has anyone mentioned the immortal Tit Wrench yet?
absolutely.
just got mine today, well worth the wait and price. can't wait to hear!
no problem, I went to the resolution center and asked for a 2 day resolution.
I sold an item on eBay the other day, but the guy hasn't paid. Before I had a chance to take the same item down from Discogs, I got a better offer. It's now 3 days and the eBay guy hasn't paid. How...
Got an email which said the pre-orders will ship on December 5th.
THAT looks like the ticket!
sorry, not what I was looking for - I despise Yes.
I just ordered one.
There were a couple of Indian Summer acetates from 1969-71 that sold on eBay earlier this year. I wonder if that's the source of this material?
tried to order but they don't accept orders from the USA? Seriously?
I feel your friends' pain. To me the Cubs are the ultimate hipster team, and nothing would please me more than to have them go winless for another 108 years.
