Best thing I've heard on Progears in a while.

Thanks.

I tend to agree.

Not out of any kind of policy. It's just that the JonYes sounds better.

Fantastic.

Does "Todmobile" translate to "Death Mobile"? (I know German but not Icelandic.)

Blue Shift is still one of my favorite CDs. It's called Not the Future I Ordered.

Some Yes sounds, but pretty unique. There's even a cover of Immigrant Song. The whole thing is mostly quite...

Elf Power: Winter Is Coming.

Entire album is great.

Dark psychedelia.

The 2nd and 3rd are much, much more upbeat.

The 2nd sounds like (almost exactly like) Gentle Giant.

The 3rd moves in a more New Age direction. Some compare it to Yes, but it also has hints of...

Thanks for the YouTube clip.

I have and LOVE their first (Quidam) and third (Time Beneath the Sky).

This one definitely sounds softer, folkier.

I strongly recommend Time Beneath the Sky. ...

Love the Seven that Spells tracks.

Thanks.

The music on the Amazon thread is GREAT!

Lots better than (Gl)ass hammer!

:O

check out this band's "Respect for the Master/Gastroblues" vid on Youtube.

Fantastic fiddle playing as well as guitar.

What d'you mean "hotter than ever"???????

They were awful then, they're still awful, and they will be awful until we get to hell and Satan and his crew are playing them by the thousands.

Oddly, I happened to be reading Dombey and Son by Dickens when I first heard this.

Carker, Dombey's evil lieutenant who ruins his business and steals his wife, is killed in a train accident...

Pig Farm on the Moon- Orbital

This is a great disc. I got it some years ago from Greg Walker at Synphonic8. From time to time I have seen it on Amazon.

Is the other Todmobile/Anderson "Wings of Heaven"?

It's on YouTube.

Actually, I quite like Phil.

Purists sniff that he ruined Genesis, but he has a good voice, and the compositions were OK. Genesis simply evolved. It had to. Just as Rabin didn't really ruin...

I like all White Willow's work, though not all equally.

This is a quiet, somber work, very dark like the cover.

But it is haunting and lovely.

I recommend it to any WW fan.

My favorite of early ELP.

I must say, though, that ELP is an infrequent taste for me.

About once a year I get this fierce craving and listen to them all obsessively.

Then I'm over it, and...

Wait.

Aren't ALL Shatner's releases prog?

Isn't Shatner the definition of prog?

"Le Prog c'est moi," is his motto.

Rilly.

As for Miley:

This is a GREAT review of Miley.

For those who don't follow Daily Grace, what are you waiting for??????

Super interview.

Thanks for the link.

I love the way the interviewer manages to go back and forth and touch on almost all of Yes's and Jon's work.

I especially love the part about Olias, and...

I second "Nightingales and Bombers" by Manfred Mann.

Also, Manfred Mann's "Solar Fire" and "Good Earth"

Three outstanding albums.

I don't know whether XTC as a whole are prog. They went through quite a various evolution.

I really love all of it.

But Dukes of Stratosphear is definitely PSYCH, which is my favorite kind of...

All their releases are great.

I like the first and third the best (Hinterland and Rites), but the second is OK, too. The second is a little too Gentle-Giantish for me. And I love Gentle Giant. ...

Sorry. I must disagree.

I loved everything Nektar did until this. It was a terrible letdown.

Uninspired pop.

What talent?

Thanks for the reprints.

I think Rush was only hated by mainstream critics. I have no brief for that kind of critic: they also prided themselves for hating Yes and Zeppelin.

But, though I...

I went through a brief (BRIEF) Magellan phase, and then said, "Wait. What am I listening to? This is just Arena Rock progified." Sold it.

Don't know what SG is.

Superb album. By far their best.

It almost single-albumedly started the early 90s Prog Revival.

Interesting interview.

Thanks.

Crises and Five Miles are certainly different from TB, Ommadawn, and Amarok.

I especially love the mix of voices. Where else can you hear Jon Anderson and...

Does Clepsydra contain some of the members of Shakary?

I have two Shakary CDs--Alya and The Last Summer--and I like them.

I got mine from Synphonic.

4 CDs. Long, long, long.

Like all the Colossus sets I have gotten (Odyssey, Colossus of Rhodes, Kalevala, Spaghetti Western, Treasure Island), it's a real mixed bag,...

Don't know if it's prog or not, but does anyone know the Deep Inner Meaning of the lyrics of Dave Mason's song "Headkeeper"?

Thanks.

Brilliant stuff.

If you like Olias, you will like this.

See it.

Hear it.

Great album.

Excellent clip.

I'm waiting for it to come to Branson, MO.

I guess this means that Yes has now entered Rock Olympus, like Wayne Newton.

I agree with Reach.

I always kind of liked Open Your Eyes.

Poppish, upbeat, fun. I still listen to it while driving long distances.

It's not Tales from Topographic, but what is?

Good album.

Like Zeprogmeister, I still like "In Blau" best.

I don't think Anyone's Daughter is a precursor of neo. They were good and innovative in their own right, not simplified and...

I have always loved this album.

It's when they first became progressive.

In my opinion, the Keys Studio tracks are the best things they've done since the 70s.

I like the Keys live stuff, too.

On the other hand, I am no judge.

I like EVERYTHING by Yes--including...

This is a fine album, and in fact I like all of White Willow.

But my favorite is still Signal to Noise.

Here it is:

(Sorry I don't know how to post the pic.)

The vid is great, and the music is extra-great.

Anyone know who the music is??????

Saw Argo and Looper.

Both very fine. (And very different.)

One I have mixed feeling about: Hugo.

Wonderful acting and effects. However, it's too childlike (childish?) for adults, too...
