I haven't heard their music in a long while. Masques registers fond memories and I do remember playing Deadly Nightshade on my show at our college radio station. I loved all of their records and...
The first album is hard to beat. Still, I played 12 Dreams a lot!
Saw them open for the Moody Blues and they blew the Moodies off the stage. They played one song facing the back of the arena...
I would love to see Barre doing Tull classics. To me, Tull isn't Tull without Barre. I saw them pre-Aqualung and remember how great that lineup was.
My favorite Gryphon album since it came out. I saw them with Yes in the 70's. I would love to see them now.
Groovy!
I found a record by Il Gruppo called The Private Sea of Dreams from 1967. The group is lead by American composer Frederick Rzewshi and features one Ennio Morricone on trumpet.
Is anyone familiar...
My first exposure to Beefheart was through my girlfriend in high school and her friends who used to sing some of his songs. They went to a concert at the Shrine Auditorium with a revue of...
The Plugz
I kid, I kid. No harm meant
Joe Byrd and the Field Hippies weren't hippies?
How do the Outskirts of Infinity measure up?
I have a lot of bootlegs from the 70's. THen, in the 80's, boxed sets of TMQ with better sound came out.
My favorite Dylan is a boot box called Ten Of Swords. I remember taping this on cassette...
I'm wondering how my vinyl copies compare to other versions:
I bought Sleep Dirt, Studio Tan and Orchestral Favorites all as cut-outs on vinyl. Also, I have a boxed set on vinyl of Lather that, I...
A large part of the Canterbury sound is rooted in Zappa.
Europe was very hip to Zappa's music and was influenced by it. The first band that came to mind was Floh de Cologne but there are many. ...
Nightmare on Elm Street - The best one is no. 3
Saw Last House at a drive in with my girlfriend at 16 when it came out - Disturbing
I used to make fun of her operatic voice and thought she seemed whollyerthanthou until I was working backstage at the Berkeley Community Theater in the 80's. She conducted herself with grace and...
Nah. I thought there had been an album before No More, No Less but I checked and I was wrong.
Front Page News is okay but the first is the best.
I have this on 45. It's got a Janus Records generic sleeve and a red stamp on the label that say's "FOR DEMONSTRATION ONLY NOT FOR SALE". The b-side plays at 45RPM. I think that I got it while...
Blue Ash can be compared to Big Star among the darlings of power pop and obscure bands that I collected in the 70's. I think that I have three of their albums, actually a couple of copies of No...
Steven Wilson is an occasional obsession of mine. Can't stop cherry picking his hopelessly melancholy world.
This one stands out and catches my attention while listening for the guests'...
A dream come true.
Just bought my tickets for Seattle! :)
Street Player is a great album. Chaka can sing anything and make it sound good but the material on this record is beautiful.
Master Jam is pretty dang good, too. It's got the Quincy big production...
I quite enjoyed that! Thanks :)
rcarlberg is a troll
Just put him on Ignore
Listened to the Field Music (Measure) CD pictured above:
I hear the 10CC, XTC references. Really good songs and arrangements. Epic quality, top-notch stuff!
Bought the live Tame Impala as...
Lumpy Gravy ;)
Side two of Touch. Listened with headphones on acid many times. X)
That album is magical! I didn't get it at the time but revisiting it years later blew my little mind. :)
The Moody Blues segued between songs on their early albums. This technique makes each...
Yes is my all-time, favorite band.
I moved my home theater sound system from the living room to the bedroom over the weekend. I hadn't christened yet until last night when I had it in my head to...
I saw Yes for the first time at the LA Forum second bill to Black Sabbath. Although I was a big Sabbath fan I was excited to see Yes doing Fragile. I had already seen Sabbath open for Grand Funk...
Played side one of Toys in the Attic the other night. Title track steamrolls over you right out the gate! The whole side flowed really well and I've been hearing snippets of even the lesser tracks...
Superior Sister. They're both classics. They look so young on the cover of Nancy!
I collected many Pink Floyd bootlegs on vinyl in the 70's and 80's. Many are great. I was very happy to find recordings of concerts that I went to, including their post-DSOTM concert at the LA...
Like Cecil Taylor and others, Ornette scared me when I began to study jazz in the 70's. That has turned to a warm fondness for his Atlantic recordings which make complete sense and sound pretty tame...
Just got the 3-LP version. It's pretty but kinda disappointed in the packaging and lack of booklet.
Walk on Hot Coals and Messin' WIth the Kid (a Buddy Guy cover)- THese i remember
A friend in high school turned me onto the two Taste albums- They had a residue of psychedelic that we liked. I recently sold a copy of Taste at the Isle of Wight for good money.
Saw him on a...
Black is my favorite absence of color
I love Ferry's cover of Sympathy for the Devil- It sounds like Bela Lugosi reading the lyrics.
Country Life and Siren came out at the time when I first saw them live. I had not heard In Every...
Yeah. Those fast jump cuts to someone's face/eyes just before they bite it (heh,heh): It's what I remember about Road Warrior (aka Mad Max II) and George Miller's style when I first saw it in the...
Troll. ;)
I used to play his first three albums a lot back in high school. My band played "Hello" and I got to sing it. Even though his music is very basic, he had a really nice feel and a general stoned...
Saw Hillage in the 70's around the L release. He was THIRD bill to ELO. Seeing him in an arena was a revelation- His throbbing echo-laden effects actually sounded good where other groups just...
Have both AST and Cosmic Overdose on original vinyl. While I return to Tussilago Fanfara fairly often and enjoy it quite a bit, Cosmic Overdose is more of a novelty that I have not played very often.
While Alan doesn't appear to be enjoying himself that much, the band has not sounded as slow these last few years as they have in other previous tours. Howe has stepped up his game a little. I find...
we should all eat some humble pi
Set to record. Will be watching The Walking Dead live
Saw the Holy Grail in a midnight showing when it was first released. A couple of Python members were there and were supposed to give a question and answer but just sat in the back giggling.
When...
Please let UK come to Seattle!
I'm so delighted to have met the man in a bar round the corner from a gig in Seattle. He was so gracious and loving. He didn't want to talk about music, just world affairs and the hope for peace...

Not only does it share cover artists with Bitches Brew, it was as ground-breaking as the Miles LP. It just flows so well; my brother had the 8-track of this is his VW van and it drove me crazy when...
New Trolls = N. T. Atomic System
D'Angelo on SNL was pretty downbeat. Although fine, I was surprised he didn't funk it up as much as I suspected. Have not heard his new one; Loved Voodoo
Walk On Guilded Splinters
Jimi - 1983 (A Merman I Should Turn To Be) has enough ideas in it to fill up a side :)
I was on the plane with my kids to spend a three-day weekend in Las Vegas. Reading the on-board magazine I found a full page ad for the Love show. I'd never heard of it!
We bought tickets and...
Witnessed, rather than met, Pip during the Progman Cometh festival in Seattle. Bash played and Pip played bongos (awkwardly) at an impromptu afternoon solo spot with Richard Sinclair. Kevin was on...
I like the questionable ones (guilty pleasures that I love):
Herb Alpert
Bobby Fuller Four
Miles Davis with Bob Dorough (Merry Xmas)
Mae West
Eartha Kitt
The Kinks
The Supremes

His first few albums are great and Mad Dogs and Englishmen was a movie I saw at the midnight theaters often in high school (Bobby Keys says "Hot damn!"). Chris Stainton (compare Hitchcock Railway to...
