They say "You will be refunded", wonder how long that will take? I hate these ticket outlets and would rather pay at the door, but didn't want to get shut out.

True enough re Cle, here I am 1 block from the venue in my rental room after an 8 hour drive (which I would have had to make anyway, but I specifically timed it to make this show). Nuts!

Hey if anyone who went to the earlier shows can post what vinyl was available at the merch table at what price I'd appreciate it.

Who would make any kind of deal out of pointing out a ur-prog classic was released on this "unhip" label? Oh, I forgot, this is the PE forum :)

They did release this one

You must have visited Warm Voices Rearranged (http://warmvoices.blogspot.com/), where it's easy to kill an afternoon on their mean anagrammed reviews. Like

Yes - Tales from Topographic Oceans...

I was in college when this came out and one of my roommates was a big Grateful Dead fan (not that there's anything wrong with that, I like their early years myself). He sort of hemmed and hawed his...

It's funny, people hear the same things different ways. I always thought the drums on "Hhai" sounded like cardboard, and the drum sound on the Retrospectivs was the first time I could really hear...

I've only seen "Le Gospel" on the Dailymotion video, did that extra chorus with Julie V. and Marcus Linon and that incredibly cute girl in the front row sing throughout the concerts, or just on Le...

Rory would pretty much stomp all comers, but he didn't (or maybe barely) play in the 60s. And of course he wasn't English, and might come back from the dead to slap you if you said he was.

If you've never seen it, there's hours of fun to be had at Warm Voices Rearranged - a site which publishes record reviews made up from anagrams of the artist's name and record title. Like:

So, did you come up with the original tapes for the "Fellow Travellers" songs (Man-Erg, W, Killer from 1971) or is this yet another dub of the transcription disc?

I used to have a tape of a Carla Bley Band radio concert broadcast in Boston a couple of years before "Ficticious Sports" came out with her singing most of the songs eventually released on Mason's...

Might could be, or it could be rather simple, like "I compared the SACD to my <UK/US> Charisma LP and it "sounded pretty much the same"|"I liked <a/b> better". It's all subjective, anyway. As I...

With respect, that's a rather naive view. At the time the records originally came out, it was usual for the disc mastering engineer to do some processing right at the final stage of cutting the...

I didn't make this tour but saw them last time in NYC and definitely thought it was too loud then, too - and I was up in the balcony. At the time I thought maybe the problem was they were used to...

So this was very interesting concerning the new CDs vs. the old, but although I haven't listened to the old CDs in a long time my memory of them is "not as good as the records". Has anyone who has...

No chorus, no refrain, top 10 Billboard chart hit

The Douche - John Mayer. The Douche abides.

Musically it was mostly pretty conventional 80s rock, guitar bass drums - I'm surprised you haven't heard of them it you're of the right age. I picked that song because it showed some of how intense...

I saw the Joni band in the first message live. I saw the original full strength Who play Tommy. I've seen Magma and Zappa and Ramones and Genesis with Gabriel and most of the likely suspects in...

I've never heard (or heard of) them, but my first thought is fuck them for stealing the Holy Modal Rounders title idea and figuring no one would notice.

I missed the link above, but if it was to the 1973 KA rehearsals they are on Dime in better than Youtube sound.

Jerry Lee Lewis is a seven-banger (last release was 2010).

What do you call a pretty girl on a drummer's arm?

A tattoo

Respectfully disagree, I think it's their worst official live release.

Emeritus

I'd suggest you get "John Lee Hooker: The Legendary Modern Recordings 1948-1954". The originals, just guitar and foot and John Lee. It was in him, and it had to come out, and it did. You can find...

Okay, well reading this thread made me think of this and I'll have to post it, but with the declaimers that
a) I've never thought of the original as a "prog" song and
b) This cover is funny, but...

I still read r.m.p It's funny to see dorky PR flacks for has-beens like Greg Lake and Jeff Berlin breathlessly posting press releases about their charges's latest releases there, as if there were an...

I found this song every bit as thrilling as his performances on the two or three episodes of Portlandia I've seen.

I disagree. I love all of those songs, especially "Crawley".

Oh yeah, there were scenes between the songs and such like an actual musical. There was an earlier version on the BBC called Starmaker which I think is all on Youtube. The staging was different,...

Ah, the teaser has a couple of my favorite parts from "Retrovision" - "Hop, Skip and Jump" and "Pies, Strawberry Pot Pies!"

Not to mention TLLDOB. The "Soap Opera" show the next year was great, too.

Big Black's original cover for "Headache" takes the prize, but I won't post it here - youse with Google-fu can go find it if you want.

Everything up until Sleepwalker. Starting with that album things started downhill pretty fast.

Don't let this happen to you...

I love the Kinks in that period but never particularly noticed Gosling one way or the other.

That album (Message From The Country) is the first one to get, especially since the current version includes the A and B sides of several great singles that came out around the same time, like this...

It works for what ails ya...http://s16.postimg.org/6xqujklxh/9969.jpg

Not only filthy guitar, but the sootiest bass sound ever to go along with it...

Cary Grant never said "Judy, Judy, Judy"

It all seemed very quaint and leftover early 1980s to me, like the people you see with extensive piercings and tattoos. Just, you know, old fashioned.

I was there when for all intents and purposes it began and definitely when it ended, in the 1970s.

Get Hammill faced again, and have him record all the vocals on the record he didn't already sing (except for the female part of duet on "I've Had Enough of You", where whatshername should be wiped...

Sorry to be a wet blanket, but I could do without a POLK updated for the trio, especially since they never/rarely played it live when it was fresh. I wasn't that excited when PH pulled out the first...

This has fallen off the web but it's still on archive.org - an extensive interview with Stella about her pop years

I'd say the twin towers of PH's solo career are Nadir's Big Chance and Over.

I believe of all the music related movies/dicumentaries I've ever seen this is the only one I ever watched twice. It's excellent. Look up integrity in the dictionary and you'll see a picture of...

Looks like there's another, a band called The Final Diners

http://www.merryswankster.com/tag/final-diners/

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTqM62LbttU

The bands 801 and A Certain Ratio are both named from lyrics in Eno's "A True Wheel".

If there's no point is it really a thread?
If there's no Cippolina is it really Quicksilver?

I worship The Great Kat because I don't want to die, which she told me long ago was the alternative. Besides, she plays violin better than Fred Frith and is far cuter than Holdsworth.
