TRACK LISTING
DISC ONE: Talk
1 The Calling
According to the press release, Forbidden was remixed by Iommi and the other three have been remastered.
And yeah would’ve been cool to have Eternal Idol in this to make the Martin years complete,...
A box set of the IRS/Tony Martin years is finally being released:
"The ANNO DOMINI 1989-1995 4LP and 4CD sets contain newly remastered versions of HEADLESS CROSS (1989), TYR (1990), and CROSS...
I'm looking forward to this as well. Looking at the track listing, the last song is entitled "His Final Bow". I wonder if that means anything in regards to Ant wrapping up the series?
I LOVE...
Thanks! Yeah, I am a fan of ELO (own almost all of their output) and most-things-Jeff-Lynne, so genuinely excited about this.
I grabbed a $229 ticket 25th row center for Philly in the presale today. What a mess though - I ran into multiple "Bad Gateway" pages (and perusing the Jeff Lynne facebook group, it appears I wasn't...
I'd like to see this, but cautious on ticket prices. We'll see when the presales start tomorrow what it looks like.
Luckily they were pretty reasonable for the New Brunswick show....got a 12th row ticket for $79. Plenty of $59 tickets further back.
And now the 2nd song from this collection has come out:
Todd Rundgren, Arthur Brown, Mel Collins, Chris Poland & Ian Paice

I grabbed a ticket for the New Brunswick, NJ show today. $79 for Row 12 - not bad, all things considering.
Roger posted some new work-in-progress artwork today on his Facebook that looks rather Yessish....haven't the Yesmen been mentioning that there is another new Yes album in the works?
Thanks! I hadn't checked out any of his music in some time, and this thread got me to investigate and I definitely need to grab some of these!
Anyone know the best place to order Schmoelling CDs? His website still links to Viktoria Park Records, but looks like their website is gone.
I grabbed a ticket also (for Collingswood, NJ). Considered the VIP option, but passed and bought a $99 ticket, which happens to be right next to one of the VIP seats. One of the earliest records I...

Looks like this one is all Andy, but sounds good to my ears. New album is To Follow Polaris. Laser's Edge taking preorders.
...
Pretty interesting new tribute to the King Crimson classic.
First "single" is this 12:30 version of Moonchild from Chester Thompson, Marty Friedman, Joe Lynn Turner, Jah Wobble
...
Absolutely....I chuckled when the artwork for the Heaven and Earth album was used.
I was at both of the NJ shows and they were just fantastic. I had never seen them live and did not own anything live from the band, so except for all of the comments on here about Foster being left...
I used to go see the Moody Blues on the tours with Moraz, and felt the same way when they added the backing female vocalists with the dancing in unison thing - Ugh!. But then I also go see TSO every...
Yeah, I (and Laser's Edge) are both in NJ, so most shipments get to me pretty quickly. Just to be sure, I chose the USPS First Class option, which was like 15 cents more than Media Mail, to make...
Lasers Edge is showing them in-stock, so I got my order in just now - should have it in time for the shows this weekend! Will definitely be listening on my drive up the turnpike.

To me, these are the biggest snubs at the moment:
Boston
The Guess Who
Joe Cocker
Jim Croce
The Monkees
Waren Zevon
Not to mention the missing proggers ELP, Tull, and Crimson.
If Cher gets in - and I assume she will - she needs to ride out on a horse in full headdress, performing Half Breed. I had this on a 45 when I was a kid, didn't really compute who Cher was back...
Yeah. I’d like to see Frampton in. That’s about it.
The news of this festival is spreading on social media, and I have seen quite a few people tag their friends and type something like "Hey, Yes is going to be there!." I assume this is why Jon...

And they have changed the TBA to now highlighting Jon's name:

Well at least Hayward and Barre have their names in the larger font, so the emphasis is on them. The headliner is just silly at this point - using these silly workarounds to have "Yes" being the...

I think I'm in for this. I LOVE this album still (not so much The Locomotion that is on my CD though) and wouldn't mind a remaster. I've never heard the live stuff nor the rehearsals, so that could...
My first introduction to Miles was his mid-80s album Transition.

I too jumped on tix for both NJ shows as well, and had tickets to the 2020 shows as well. Really looking forward to these!
Yes, I understand what it is. It was explained in the blurb ("Yessonata, a 30-minute instrumental work featuring YES themes and melodies, woven into sonata form."). Not sure I write home about it,...
