A honourable mention of “My Own Time”, one of their best and most poignant songs. Lots of heart and soul in this reunion performance:

alan white. stalwart until the end. you rule. RiP.
that is an exhaustive list, looks like they merely stuck entire albums in there from end to end (haven’t checked thoroughly so may be wrong here)
on a sidenote: i am suprised to see this venerable...
albany/NY from 1991 is pristine …

never "got" the FFs, never felt the need to be able to do so … but THIS is what i will remember him for (this, and the induction speeches …) – and his boundless energy. one good guy less in this...
easy to do when all the tickets have already been sold and rolled over twice. under similar circumstances one could even sneak in a pop duo to replace two key members :)
i never really "got" BBT to a full extent... but longdon was a vocalist second to none. a devastating loss.
:heart
they could support the ABBAtars thing in london 2022.
FAITHLESS: “no roots”. a "misplaced childhood" for the noughties.
and, just about every album by THE TUBES.
can anyone remember – during the yuppet namecalling period – that geoff downes staunchly defended the position in his blog that the slowing down of the band’s tempos was due to providing the tracks...
everybody in BOSTON ever?
it sounds a bit like ASiA. and that’s not a bad thing.
had the chance to see him with the band in 2001. rest in peace, gentle giant.
the members of REM? although michael stipe has of recent been more visible in the arts scene …
appreciate your suggestions!
big fan of BOSSK, can’t wait to hear the new one, “migration”. these are stunners:

my JAMBiNAi-story:
saw them in a muddy field in england’s west country (ArcTanGent 2017) and ended up becoming entirely transfixed by the experience. post rock with monumental guitars and...
anyone else listening?
i am currently getting a lot of mileage out of bands like
BOSSK
CASPIAN
RUSSIAN CIRCLE
CULT OF LUNA
PELICAN
NEUROSIS
it looks like one of those old tiffany lampshades that i remember from my grandparents’. plus, it seems to be a bit jarring in combination with the surrounding roger dean art … of whom i currently...
my sincere condolences and good wishes to you. rest in prog.
grrrrr … one of those bands and albums that i never seem to be able to get into; despite my predilection for post-prog/rock and wall-to-wall psychedelia. i even went to see them live (with KNIFEWORLD...
thread revived because the continuation the story has now been released. the follow-up is titled “percipio ergo sum” and features eleven new tracks. lend an ear. thanks!
...
emptyvee did a fair bit of reporting around the time of the union tour – especially this very useful “rockumentary” which passes well as a potted version of “yesyears” … with the added liberty of...
the “union 30" thread has just mentioned YES as (to quote profusion) “the eternal land of missed opportunities“ so this thread seems to be a logical consequence … i do have a few potential YES...
YES had bugs bunny flicks open for them in the 1980s.
here’s my silver jubilee recollection, suitably revived for the 30th. i agree with every single one of your sentiments.
...
good call … and technically appropriate because the band reformed in 2009 (counting as 2000s) and played some fantastic shows. i like “brilliant” and i do think that at least this one belongs to the...
^ love the still pic. is that rick or trevor doing the rabbit ear victory sign on steve?
i paid a hefty sum of money for this 2CD in 1992. while i quickly dispensed of all other old CD boots of...
a sonic precursor to 90125. my vocal sweet spots of JA are his late 1960’s beatific and lancashire burr informed delivery and the keening new wave style that he developed with advancing middle age. i...
that’s an interesting one, thanks for that!
funnily enough many bands that i discovered in the 1980s (during my teen & early adolescent years) i stuck with during the 1990s, which in places...
nail on the head, sir. the infamous KING’S X / AC/DC pairing is now 30 years ago … i saw the show in kiel (northern germany) and my opinion of AC/DC-fans afterwards plummeted to an all-time low and...
Explosions In The Sky

he is obviously spending more money on his dye than rudy giuliani …
any takers for the spaghetti top?
forza st. pauli :horns RiP GM.
bah, humbug … a waste of talent and electricity :)))
PS: knife edge, three fates, lucky man (end bit)
fair point. i retain enthusiasm for both YES//east and //west but i was onboard for all eras by “big generator” and ABWH. YES was a discovery for me by way of other (neo prog) bands that continually...
i find it notable that two of the most adept YES chroniclers in operation are people that got into YES by way of their second (and entirely different and unlikely) wave of success and then exploring...
i’m in. physical copy please.
what a stunning and, yes, sobering piece.
please stay healthy, y’all.
#1 for me – a very special album with a unique and unrepeatable atmosphere. #2 is definitely strong, but almost proto-ASiA in places.

^^^^^ fantastic stuff.
David Bowie’s closing set at Roskilde, 1996 (“Outside” era). I was completely obliterated. That’s festivals for you …
Thankfully I had a second chance the following year when he toured...
she was part of this year’s live line-up of SWANS … i would have caught her/them at ArcTanGent in the UK, alas …
Nice idea! My 1993:
Nazareth & Uriah Heep • Duran Duran (unplugged) • Fish (support: Rubicon & Rick Wakeman w./ Adam) • Van Halen (support: Little Angels) • Dream Theater (first ever German...
“be gone you ever piercing power-play machine …”
love this!
Be in possession of both words and they will forever belong to your most precious Habseligkeiten.
“ok, i’m steve howe!”
yes, it’s all very much from within the post rock & metal / shoegaze / math realm which has all but superseded prog in my listening choices to an extent now. will check out yours as well.
“Weltschmerz” is one of my favourite German words.
