Throbbing Gristle's Greatest Hits...
Interbellum...thank you!!
Their best cds are out of print...
Fripp disliked Lizard. Most of what he disliked I adored. Most of wht he liked I dreaded. Lol!...
River's Edge ..based off a true story seemed to produce some bizarre characters with dark humour...such as Dennis Hopper. Another film that feels timeless to me is CATCH 22. I have a love for Pirates...
Beaver & Krause -Gandharva...
In 1980 I had the import LP of Flying Teapot on Virgin Records. When played on a Technics turntable through a pair of JBL Tower speakers and a Pioneer receiver it sounded decent. It definitely...
Thanks! Yes I love Anthony Phillips...and I was shocked when he brought several of the early ex King Crimson members aboard on his early releases. Anthony Phillips is such a clean and precise...
In 1974 it bored me a bit. Not that the music was boring...I was bored. Then in 1980 I bought the LP and was hooked to side 3. It reminded me of a suite. In Europe during the 70s Prog oriented bands...
Black Mass by Lucifer....Mort Garson
It is and It Isn't included a few songs with mellotron that produced the King Crimson vibe. I don't believe Gordon Haskell ever sounded like this again. He didn't like King Crimson and its quite...
Such a drastic change when they recorded Epic Forest. A total different direction . The first 3 albums have powerful consistency . I miss those days
Not to imbalance the thread....but in my case it's more of a " line up" than a band. And that would be King Crimson in 69" recording their 2nd album instead of Ian McDonald leaving. Which would have...
It was done well. Not my favorite. I understand why it is loved.
I can't believe the answers members came up with. This is so difficult!! Band members come and go as a way of life. Thank you for posting this thread. A lot to observe here!!
King Crimson Islands 40th Anniversary Series...Japanese import. This includes the American and British cover. The CD is inside the American cover and the DVD in the British cover. Beautiful packaging...
I'm very interested in hearing it. A very unique and short lived period.
Loved his work during the Tony Visconti sessions. I believe it was "Life On Mars" that stunned me with its melodicy. And of course with Strawbs. Although not a Strawbs fan. Fragile, Close To The...
I have to admit that people produce some outstanding sarcastic humour here. And recommendations are a gift. The knowledge members share I take seriously.....
Dropforge...I have to check out Bearings
Ronnie Montrose is still somewhat of an underdog of the 70s. He's mentioned occasionally on forums and on YT vids...but not by the masses. And during the Rock genre 70s...when bands like Thin Lizzy...
This is going to be interesting. The event is amazing to me. I visualize the similarities of the place , the music, and the vibe present when I used to watch string quartets perform in mansions by...
Open Fire, Territory, The Speed Of Sound, The Diva Station, Mutatis Mutandis, Music From Here, and Mr. Bones..all have brilliant moments . Even if you skip over a few vocal tracks on Territory and...
Thanks for confirming the shows that Northettes played. Will check these references...really interesting
My dream in the 70s was to see Hatfield and the North live..in concert. ....at a place like Hammersmith Odeon. With some unbelievably talented sound tech at the mixing board. And all 3 of the...
It's a shame that Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame couldn't be altered to mean something else. If we could just stop placing so much importance on the word "Fame". Even divide categories of Rock. Place...
Zeuhlmate...thank you so much. I am going to research every one of your recomendations...This is intriguing...thank you. Simon Moon...thank you for everything as well. I really enjoyed the vids....
Omg..Zeuhlmate! How did you discover this? This is incredible to me! I hope I can find it
I'm going to type out a list of cds here and if you have time to read it...would you please make suggestions of other composers..or just music itself..(generally speaking), that you think I might...
Very nice
This is incredible. I must have this CD. Is that a mellotron I am hearing? And this piece is so adventurous....omg..Far Corner...and I am amazed by this.
Ingram Marshall..September Canons
There was pressure from the record company to be more commercially viable. Some people have the opinion that the masses grew tired of Prog. This is possible...but then explain why theaters were...
I have " Distances Between Us" on CD. Which includes Robert Calvert doing a electronic version of Steppenwolf
Birdsongs of the Mesozoic...Faultline
I thought he was a brilliant Science Fiction writer. Way ahead of his time. Very peculiar in the sense that what he chose to sing about had little to do with anyone else. He had the slightness of...
Regarding Prog?...generally speaking..it is one of the most perfect Prog statements. Yes , there are others of this period in time ...from 69 possibly to 78' when Roger Glover released...
The song "Winter" sounds like Gentle Giant
I believe the vastness of the Rock scene during that time left an impression on me. Managers, agents, musicians and crowds reacted with an abundance of enthusiasm. I was about 20 years old ,...
In the 70's when I played clubs and theaters , Happy The Man were an attraction. For example, the band I traveled with on a tour bus..were..seated passing Happy The Man albums around and discussing...
In several cases it seemed that many of their themes were recurring on certain albums and the listener would be confused as to why this was happening. Some Popol Vuh pieces were meant to be...
So unsure as to why. It might be a combination of family life responsibilities and being a perfectionist. Or he could be waiting on an idea to arrive to him so he can follow up on the completion of...
I have to agree with that. Baker was out of bounds for that stunt
Define jerk. I think Ginger Baker is foul when people attempt to analyze his playing , his purpose , his being. He's probably one of those musicians who feels that everything people are enchanted...
I have all the official releases on CD which ends with Spirit Of Peace. Also have Yoga, which supposedly doesn't include Florian , but love it anyway. These are becoming rare, but short of that I...
It might be a reference to the guitar playing....which truly wasn't far from sounding like Ted Turner of Wishbone Ash. The more soft gentle Rock style of Turner's playing on Argus...which sounded...
I can't recall if Fish Rising was released before Shamal or after it. I know that some members on Shamal played with Gong in '74 and can be heard on the live '74 Oslo CD. An interesting transitional...
Yes that's it! Thanks.....I must hear it again, it's been years.
I bought the import of Mirage in '74 at some independently owned record shop on High Street, Millville N.J. Isn't that just enjoyable. I bought Mirage , Hatfield and the North, and Gong You and spent...
Wishbone Ash-Live Dates
Humble Pie - Performance Rockin' The Fillmore
George Benson - Live at Carnegie Hall 1975
Climax Blues Band - FM/Live
Camel - A Live Record
King Crimson - The Nightwatch,...
Thank you for your response
You say you want to keep the flame burning and I respect that greatly. Not to be disrespectful ....but I have curiosity over the possibility that his death could have been accidental . Although I...
I loved the stripped down version, no overdubs, available from the K.C. Collectors Club. Something about it held my interest and not sure what. Maybe I liked that show without overdubs. There may...
Regarding Andrew Latimer as a guitarist it's good to acknowledge that he was exposed to the popularity of guitarists like Eric Clapton and Peter Green and that environment must have reflected some of...
When you walk into FYE and can't find a section for Jethro Tull. When you ask at the counter if the store carries Jethro Tull and the person behind the counter says ...."Jethro who?" When you are...
Lol!
I ignore all emails , am anti social with humans, have paid a fee to have my name changed, lost 65 pounds on a Zen diet and have changed my appearance making it very difficult for those who did know...
I used to make frequent trips to Tower Records in Cherry Hill, N.J. In the summer of 2006 it was announced that they would be closing for good. It was right around the time that Syd Barrett died. It...
I thought Nocturne to be mystical. The version I had for years was a two on one on the Celestial Harmonies label. I was told that the recording was incomplete by an Emerald Web fan who owned the...
Excellent!
