6 & 7 are maybe my faves.
Indeed strong difference between the studio and the live disc.
Never seen this one before - pretty extreme at times during Grides.
...
I must admit that I've never really taken seriously Coda, after being increasingly disappointed with Graffitti, Presence and Outdoor, to the point that I never took it home (but heard it a few times...
Given the fact that I only really started in late 74, and my totally-incomplete knowledge of music by 1981 - still is nowadays, BTW....
(Didn't even think there would be Spanish or Italian rock...
By far, my prefered two albums as well.
I can live without the rest, though BIA's flipside is rather awesome.
Yup, Straits was maybe/possibly my fave mainstream band during the 80's, but the...
One has to see those 70's rock filming as period-pieces, and criticising that 60 years down the line is a bit unfair (IMHO).
If you're a 20-sumthin' nowadays, one could understand the critics, as...
:lol
mmmhh!!!... I think this stair & guitar video is right in the line of Toyah's Sunday Brunch thingie
C'm'on here
I'm still waiting for Mandaï to ship it to me, cos they don't have it in stock (two weeks they say)
Ordered as well the latest SM albums I don't have yet.
But from what I've heard so far, it is...
I thought there was too little time devoted to the Doobies (outside his talk about MMcD, induced by Sean's question), but I'm surprised he spoke about Fault Line being TDB's best and says it's...
:lol
All the news that's fit to print.... and more
.... but that one is probably verifiable
^^^
Don't remember that sitcom at all. I guess it didn't cross the northern border.
I take it that show was from 77/78 from the song featured in it.
Baxter was an allright addition in the band,...
I still have the original boxset containing the vinyls, but TBH, if I was to one day revisit it, it would be the film on DVD (I'd have to borrow ot from the library, though).
In terms of staged...
I mentionned it with the 70's album. ;) Nothing outstanding, but better than anything I'd heard of the TM era.
FTM, 13 might as well haven't happened at all that it wouldn't have changed anything...
Well, I'll take all of the Dio Sab albums over any of the rest of the band's history, including a few with Ozzy (both 70's and 13), but by the time Dehumanizer and Devil You Know, I wasn't caring...
I'm gonna jump on this one (if they press a CD)
Which is why I made a parallel with Crimson's Frippy. It seems that all considered it an honour to be working with El Lider Maximo.
As for Joliffe, it wasn't a good idea to have him back (after...
I beg to differ... Their first three are not well recorded/produced at all.
Same here. I lose all interest by the time of the Spaceship... and TBH, a CDr compilation beyond the first two is...
Oriental Wind was one of my gateways to JR/F along with Mahavisnu, Caravanserai and Bitches Brew in the early 80's.
Currently reading Bonnet's recent (2023) book on TD, and revisiting the 70's albums in the process (I'm currently at Tangram, and don't plan on listening much further), I am stricken out about the...
My three faves in the "punk galaxy" have been mentionned
The Gift is my fave Jam album
yeah, they're pretty good with the service
Been ordering stuff from the US with them of late, but their offer is fairly limited for my tastes (that have evolved in recent years)
13 Lard Free Gilbert Artman's Lard Free Fra 1973
13 Magma Hhai / Live Fra 1975
13 Plat du Jour Plat du Jour Fra 1977
13 Ripaille La Vieille que l'On Brula Fra 1978
12 Art Zoyd Generation...
We should see soon, Svettie's latest incarnation chime in. The Who is his fave band.
Absolutely
Maybe not on the album, but on the movie...
I've been very careful with CD tray opening since I once broken the mechanism by constantly giving a small shove to enter/slide the tray inside the deck, instead of using the front panel button or...
Never had a problem from my NAD amplifier, if only via the remote.
Fixed the problem for the CD player. Opened it up, but it didn't help. I will probably push the tray inwards to make ekectrical...
Kollektiv's debut (love it) is from 73, Guru's Junk from 70 or 71
By the time Karpenkiel was in Guru 2, it was their 7th or 8th album.

Pretty good band. Best represented (IMHO) by the posthumous live album Live at the Cliffs of Rhine , but their three historic albums are very...
I do think Sunfighter would've deserved a better (read more Sci-Fi) artwork that it merited, but I do think those three "solo/duo/trio" albums are
very great, as is even more Grace's Manhole...
Yes, much like many vinyls never saw a CD or SACD release, many films that found a VHS release still haven't found a DVD or BR release, hence the hefty prices demanded.
I believe Disney VHS...
there was a time when a Jefferson Airplane evening could last up to 5 or 6 hours
Hot Tune opened,k the Airplane followed and then Casady, Kaukonen and Covington would jam for another two hours...
Can"r really explain why, but that happens to me quite a lot too.
Generally my newly acquired CDs spend a couple of months in the car, before finding themselves in the Hi-Fi chain then the...
I'm more the type Prog Committed Suicide conspiracy :bad
That started in 1973 with the first oil crisis, IMHO. Many record companies started reducing the weight of the petroleum-based vinyl...
are these guys still around??
Can never forget their closing concert at Carmaux some 10 or 12 years ago.
it seems that the vast majority of the Soleil Zeuhl Festival attendance was only interested in CDs (note that there was very few vinyls on offer at the merchandise table), but it was a regular...
Svettie, long time no read on PE (not on PA, though) :roll
The Ultime Thule is available in the Nebulous Dawn boxset, but this is needless if you already own the much better boxset Pink Years (artworks respected and tracks list sequence as well). There is...
my own Gnosis list (only listed G12+ ratings)
13 Jumbo Vietato Ai Minori Di 18 Anni?
13 Picchio Dal Pozzo Picchio Dal Pozzo
12 Balletto di Bronzo, Il Ys Ita
12 Celeste Celeste (aka...
difficult to avoid, though.
TBH, that "bel canto" singing thing often irritates me as well. It ruffles my feathers and rubs my eardums the wrong way.
And that goes for prog as well as "romantic...
This is the North Am version.
I actually prefer this one (with the cut-outs of the lids in the top corners) than the Dean artwork. Of course, I'm probably biased since I owned that version and...
yeah, sounds like it, but since I haven't owned since the vinyl, this could be interesting for me (provided it is on support that I can read with my hi-fi)
You do say "essential" in the thread title, and IMHO, you've got everything you need (and so/too much more)....
... bar two things (surrounding the Atem album release):
The Ultima Thule single...
As for my love accordian, we have a recent thread about least-preferred musical instruments.
https://www.progressiveears.org/forum/showthread.php/30795-Least-favorite-musical-instrument
Sorry...
one so fine that it would almost deserve a Gnosis 15 on my scale, if I'd ever used the 15.
I saw that tour as well.
I suspect Ponty's exposure was really what sparked my first interest in...
Aurélie told me not to expect anything this year
For that matter, they (VAK) sold their last copies of their first album (aevidivea) at the gig and no plan to reissue
I guess one prerequisite is having at least one member called Roger for Waters to go afoul in a band :lol
Though Floyd had two Roger.
Over & Out. ;)
Well the 90's cover band of the...

we also had Clarence the lion somewhere down those years for when Frippy was a little more moody, but Frippary sounds less legit. :)
...
First time seeing FHZ, despite having bought their albums +/- at release time.
I think I saw my concert of the year, and that was before Klaus Blazquizz showed up for an amazing encore
as...
see you tonight, then ;)
yesterday in Belleville, there was two thoughts about Frippy:
one
the scene becoming extinct (or ceased to exist)
rwo
we were encouraged to take as many pictures...
I gess Bill si still "curating his legacy" ;)

Debi (and her crowd, but no Elaine) & Joe were all there last night, and quite a few familiar daces (including Aymeric), but a few notable absentees.
I suggested they (Debi) do avisit at Souffle...
Well, Giles' entrance (literally and figuratively) would seem to confirm that he is a very abrasive man (as Battema says) right from his first spoken words.
Well, it was most likely concerted...
:lol
Thx, I didn't know this
Apparently MG obliged and let the drum stool to Ian Wallace
Yessss, the production is inelegant to the max, because Jakko seems to imply this "ultimate cunt"...
Watching the Rockumentary a second time
I'd been startled the first time but hadn't reacted
At 23:45, Jakko talks about his opening day in the band and Fripp says of the original line-up...
Thx, apparently he worked mainly (almost only) for TMB.
Wow, this dude made most of the iconic Savoy Brown sleeves.
Not a fan of Shanty or Future Past sleeves, but was it the same artiste that did Lost Chord, Threshold, Children's, Question, Every Good Boy and Sojourn (gatefold) artworks?
let's see if the plaintive go for an appeal.
I'm also disappointed Roger didn't "graciously" prolong (as Rick did) the moral obligations towards the other three.
Roger claims the words weren't...
It's the work of a mega fan, not a professional writer (methinks), though he could fool you with the quality.
Certainly a better book than the Toronto journalist book that wrote his during the 90's,...

Not sure Davies is in shape for that.
He's already recovered beyond reasonable hope
In a way it makes sense
Wonder how Rick's wife feels now knowing that she (Universal Music...
Can't remember if I posted this here or not

I blame Wynton!!!!:yell
What was the question, again???:good
Seriously , isn't he the odd man out in this electric band? :huh
