Rick Wakeman has a 5 or 6 minute version of Rhapsody in Blue on his Rhapsodies album(1979).
Fantastic news!!
Definitely very tired of Brown Eyed Girl. The Greenville (NY) Drive-In Theater is a great husband & wife operation. They have a happy hour in their small beer garden with one of the local bands...
This was the first Bowie disc I bought and it remains my favorite. You're right, it's a pistache of everything and he was damn good at all of it!
Another pair of grumpy old men...
Film at 11.
It was while I was in high school in the early 80s that I first heard Camel ('82 or '83). WNEW-FM had a program on Sunday evenings called "For Headphones Only." There was usually a lot of Pink...
You're right! I forgot about that.
I think a large part of the problem, in the U.S., is that music radio has become very homogenized. When ClearChannel (now I Heart Media) began gobbling up stations in the 90s, the bell began...
Now, THAT was fantastic!! Thanks for posting!
Remember when he was on SCTV? ;)

My (naive) hope is that the lockout ends before the end of the month. I enjoy the spring training games. Keeping my fingers crossed.
I love Karen Carpenter's voice. Each time I hear the Carpenters version of "Superstar" I smile! As a matter of fact, I really dig the Carpenters. Oh, and ABBA. However, I don't feel guilty about...
Wow! A lot of great memories and stories here! This is what makes this place so wonderful!
For me, it was Steve Hackett at The Bottom Line in NYC in August 1992. What a great venue that was! I...
That one has become a big favorite of mine and my wife's. It's different from most of the other Christmas music out there. We play it quite a bit!
Ringo hits mile marker 81 in a few weeks.

I'm very sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I never met him, but what a wonderful man he was. The world is a lesser place today.
That was great!
Thank you for posting it.
I never met Progeezer but I've always enjoyed his posts here and since this announcement, I've enjoyed reading other members' recollections of him. What a wonderful person. I always considered him...
I watched this last week and thought it was great. Lousy quality, of course, but I think the Slipperman footage alone is worth it. You can really see throughout how PG was expanding his...
Thanks for the correction! I wasn't sure if it was garnelen or hummer.
Chambermaid, There are Lobsters Under My Pillow!
Krautrock version:
Zimmermadchen, Unter Meinem Kissen Sind Garnelen!
#1 the day I was born: Nancy Sinatra "These Boots Are Made for Walking"
#1 on my 16th birthday - J. Giels Band "Centerfold"
A little trivia: One of her songs, "The Little Boy that Santa Claus Forgot" is playing on the radio in a scene in "Pink Floyd The Wall." It's been a long time since I've seen it but I think it's at...
That was fantastic! Thanks for posting
Has anyone seen the movie [U]Florence Foster Jenkins[U]? Based on a true story - a very wealthy woman who loved opera and wanted to be a singer. She couldn't sing but that didn't stop her from...
Murray Head!
Peter Gabriel
The Stones:
Beggar's Banquet
Let It Bleed
Sticky Fingers
Although they're bookended by Satanic Majesty's and Exile. Tough to say with those boys.
That was intense!!
Thanks for posting it. It makes me marvel at the power of the Wetton/Bruford rhythm section.
Great review! Thanks for posting it.

I'm currently reading Ed Sanders memoir, Fug You and Ed has fond memories and stories about Izzy Young and how he helped Ed in his early days publishing his magazine and with The Fugs. Great stuff!
I read this in today's NY Times and had to smile. What happens when a band name becomes a brand name? This is a discussion which has occurred on this site more than once. Hawkwind and Yes came to...

I'm sure you're right about e-motive not being on the bill, now that I think of it. It was an odd venue with open space for standing in front of the stage and then tables and seats waaaaay in the...
You didn't dream it. The other band was called E-motive. I think Jay Taussig sang for them. They opened for Fish at Trammps and Club Bene down in Jersey. I don't remember if Mastermind was at...
I enjoyed this as well but with a few caveats. Like most self-published books, this in in dire need of an editor. There are quite a few glaring errors. He calls Fripp's first solo disc...
[QUOTE=Stevie B;841852]Let It Be has at least four stone-cold classics that almost any artist would willingly remove their right testicle to have come up with: Let It Be, Across the Universe, Get...
I listened to both of these today and there are lots of things to like about them. The guitar on any of the instrumentals is top notch! The Air-Conditioned Nightmare, Always Somewhere Else and...
