I had a feeling this was gonna be popular, but not this popular. was 80's Crimson itself this hot of a ticket?

I can't hate on Sinfield, I mean some of his lyrics are part and parcel to the entire prog movement, also I kinda love the idea that the music industry was once at a point where a guy like this could...

a lot of people have pointed out how gross the Ladies of the Road lyrics are, I think Taste of My Love gets clowned on a lot more because it's way funnier? like it's just one awkward metaphor after...

yeah having actual bass on it changes a lot. I always thought this album was overlooked - Side 1 is alright, Side 2 is great. Civilian is a good one too. Giant for a Day is the only one that kinda...

the women's tournament drew huge numbers, which seems really huge for women's sports in general. everyone says they don't get paid or promoted because nobody watches, but this year kinda proved that...

Curb finale did have one pretty clever element to it, otherwise it was pretty much what I expected. It was weird they only went half-in on the "bring back characters from the past" idea, maybe since...

yea the 3 Live stuff was a real revelation to me, very much a "Greg Lake's away, lets have fun with it" sorta vibe, also Emerson sounds really good, so I'm guessing his hand problems were just around...

pretty hilarious that this is what he's gotta do to make himself seem human

just be glad this wasn't Steve Howe

to make matters even worse wasn't the original "High Voltage" CD edition just a 'greatest hits' type package with the songs they played at the show? I remember a bunch of reviews going "these are...

I think he's always been like that, even on the Welcome Back live album you can tell the others are getting tired during Karn Evil 9 but he will not stop doing his thing

though looking up stuff on Discogs I'm pretty amused that Talk was originally released on a single LP even though it's 55 minutes long. even crazier Union has a 1xLP release and even though it cuts...

look buddy, I own a dozen Yes LPs and am somewhat excited about a reissue of a 1994 Yes album I don't even really like that much, fair to say rationality has gone out the window at this point

I remember getting Absent Lovers, listening to it on a near daily basis, then buying a copy of Discipline and thinking my turntable was broken lol

most recent thing I've heard Belew on is the Gizmodrome live set. he somehow sounds exactly like he did in the 80's. it's kind of freaky actually.

History of the Mystery on Old Loves Die Hard is such a great tune. I wish there was more game show theme prog like that. Anyway I agree that Triumvirat had their own style but they were sonically...

nice this is coming out on vinyl too, I think it's the only album of theirs you can't get at a reasonable price

does anyone else think the tracklisting on Illusions on a Double Dimple is off? for example there's a song called Roundabout which has that line "aren't you a lucky girl", and then the next song is...

if Fizz gets an official release it should be an autobuy. really groovy stuff, still says true to the spirit of Can I feel (in a way the studio stuff maybe doesn't), also sounds amazing

dunno...

The combined total of all three albums is about 2 hours. I'm assuming some stuff from the albums they won't play, maybe to be replaced by improvs or earlier Crim stuff. But yeah I'd bet my life...

^ yep, that's it.

interesting video but the title is definitely clickbait

When I saw Steve Hackett a few months ago some guy came out to announce it. I was wondering when/if they'd make it official.

One thing though - when it was announced I don't think Danny Carey was...

curious about this as well though I suspect the 'extra' material will mostly be Interview tracks. wasn't it somewhat common practice in those days to exclude tracks from the current studio album...

ok just noticed that Stew's PC desktop background is the infamous Sting shirtless lute photo, lmao

well it turns out my local store was able to get a copy! but I also ordered it along with Dark Matter from the official store, so now I have two of The Wake (both purple I assume)...if anyone in...

well I did order a copy and this is really incredible. genuinely one of the most bonkers prog albums I've heard in a while, almost can't call it 'prog' because it does so much at once

I enjoyed the interview, wish it were longer in fact. wanted to hear more about his post-Police career. despite what he says I think he's actually a pretty decent pop songwriter. at least he has a...

I strongly encourage y'all to check out the 3 live recordings - they do a bunch of ELP instrumental stuff and it absolutely rips...guess Emerson's hand problems hadn't started just yet

so is he out of Glass Hammer now? I've noticed that Steve has more or less commandeered the band.

big difference there is the members of ELP couldn't really stand each other.

Canario is indeed a pretty sweet track, I remember hearing that on The Atlantic Years compilation and being really impressed by it. I couldn't believe it was from that album everyone hated.

thoroughly enjoyed the documentary, I agree with him that these sorts of albums are way more fun to dive into than the classics we've all heard a hundred times. wonder where he dug up all that...

yea, noticed that too, was gonna buy that + The Wake together from them but my local shop is still trying to get a copy so I didn't want to end up with two. oh well! the idea is to get the prices...

Todd Rundgren's Liars is getting a reissue - it does exist on vinyl but it's pretty expensive. IMO it's his best since Healing, so I'm definitely gonna try to snap that up

kinda funny to see the 49ers fall to a team that they were playing way better than for most of the game but just couldn't put away...that's what they did to Green Bay and Detroit. now you know how...

there's a comment on Discogs indicating that a purple pressing of The Wake is coming out later this month ?? but I don't see confirmation of that anywhere else.

I agree with Hal, the Chiefs got a lot of breaks in that game, but they also performed a lot better when it mattered most while the 49ers offense seemed to lose its mojo. Seems to be a common thread...

very strange and a pretty bad look but it did produce a lot of good memes so it's kind of a wash :)

Chiefs vibes were very bad in the first half, idk what exactly what going on there but they came...

I saw that...hopefully can pick up both at once.

The Wake vinyl seems to be coming out very slowly - my local shop here in America thinks it can get a couple, but they're on backorder everywhere.

I was curious about that too...the way the Chiefs were playing they clearly didn't think the clock mattered...so is there any reason at all for OT to even be timed then?

awful news - I'm only a casual Wyatt fan but have always thought of him as a warm and genuine soul. someone who makes me proud to be human. I've only heard nice things about him. I hope he's being...

I would really love to see them. Judging by some YouTube videos they really aren't that far off from classic Yes.

right - those Keith Emerson Band shows circa 2007 or so were pretty good - it sounded like he could play again...Lake's voice of course never returned to what it was, but he adjusted to his lower...

yes it is well known that the NFL is rigged in favor of the Cleveland Browns

also gives you a good idea of when Emerson's hand issues started happening - I assumed he was going steadily downhill in the 80s, but those 3 live shows have him playing just as fast and wild as...

There are some semi-official boots of the 3 tour out there which I thought were really good. I don't really like the "To the Power of 3" album either but once they started playing the classic ELP...

Ravvivando indeed is pretty great, as is Faust is Last (though the last third or so kinda drags). their later stuff is pretty hit or miss for me but I do listen to those two regularly.

tbh I don't think it needs one, it actually sounds really good! one of those albums I thought was crap when listening on headphones but once I actually got the record and heard it on a good system...

absolutely, I don't much care for the outtakes albums but Punkt is everything I hoped it would be

exactly - I think the decision to go for it the first time was good, mostly because making it means you can take another 2-3 minutes off the clock, and even if you just get a FG you're still limiting...

if I remember correctly this band still kicked a lot of ass live. I think the discs 2 and 3 are available in bootleg or semi-official form, wonder if anything's been done to the sound here

amusingly the press release of Wobbler's From Silence to Somewhere namechecks this band - Formed in Hønefoss in 1999, WOBBLER’s current lineup features current and former members of TUSMØRKE, WHITE...

its kind of a long story but I think I actually might have secured a regular DJ gig on the strength of this track

I actually don't think Initiation sounds too bad - that 2nd side doesn't have a whole lot of bass anyway, so it actually kinda works as-is. AWATS & the first Utopia album definitely have that...

I was just thinking about this in regards to The Tangent's Spark in the Aether. if he had the balls to cut "The Celluloid Road" and just release it as a 40 minute single LP it would be really tight...

got a little worried when I saw a copy pop up on Discogs for $200, since IQ's official store has sold out...but it also appears this hasn't really been released yet ?

well damn, that sounds great, I never noticed there was an actual bass line in that tune

tbh I always considered this album underrated but it still seemed like an odd choice for Wilson to...

great news, I was just wondering a couple days ago if this series was dead. it's been a genuinely bizarre rollout, I wonder if there were just some big delays at the pressing plants or whatever
...

ultimately I agree with most of the posts in here that this is a good thing. I know most of us love physical media but let's face it, nearly the entire history of recorded music is out there on...
