That's another song ;)

Let me remind you that both Yes and Genesis covered this song.

Do I have your attention now?

Greg Lake?

I've always found a paradox in this sentence :)

I love that one still... A serious candidate to the best ProgLove song ever.

Hi,

It's me. The girl from the bus. Remember? Last tour.

Well...

Can anyone grasp the lyrics for this psych monster?

Unfortunately it is the only single by Psico. Filipe Mendes aka Phil Mendrix, the guitar player, was in many bands, Chinchilas was its first:

Another vintage gem:

Before they turned into Pop... So beautiful (Jardim Terra), remind me the great Perspectiva, another only 2-singles band.

Loved the piano on this one.

Yes, your approach makes sense to me.

Come Way Melinda by Uriah Heep, yes!
Also, Tambourine Man, definitely The Byrds nailed it!

So in the case of Lucille Has Messed My Mind Up, FZ wrote it, Jeff Simmons recorded it in 1969 and then 10 years after (no pun intended with mister Alvin Lee band :)) FZ also recorded it.

Which...

Speaking of uncovers and recovers, there are also some discovers that should be made. Arik Einstein is one of those, by the hands of the great Capsicum Red in their sole album that also includes a...

Ahah, nice one. That one album is a saucer full of secrets ;) very acid very good. And of course, Asturias in the beginning is very welcome nad actually marries well.

Speaking of which "What is a...

Couldn't open the video. What is it?

Both versions of Satisfaction by Devo or Residents are not covers to my ears... they are uncovers. As if they tried to ridicularize how goofy that song was.

Burnin' Red Ivanhoe, on the other hand,...

From Cordoba to the world. From Flamenco Prog to Metal Prog, taking a Los Modulos classic. Aside from the blistering guitar, the singing crowd "me ponen los pelos de punta" how the spanish say. No...

What''s the best take on Summertime? Loved the Walker Brothers version, but this one is a classic still:

Eleanor Rigby has to be one of the most covered songs ever. What is the most, Yesterday?


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbAUDbA9yVo&ab_channel=rafaellpro

Wow, thank you! This one escaped from my radar!

EDIT: Now playing. Already hooked on the Organ. This is gooood!

I guess this is the German band of the Sad Cypress album? In the notes I took when I listened back then I wrote "Pleasant Symphonic Prog sounding a bit like Marillion in places, though they existed...

From Nina Hagen I always loved her take on Danny Elffman's Sally's Song:

I can see arguments on both sides, so maybe a definition of cover should be estabilished first :)

You would say no but your words say yes? ;)

Wow, was listening to Xerf Xpec recent uploads and stumble on this gem:

P.S. - I couldn't match the time right but the magic happens at 17:32

It's hard to beat any Beatles' orignal but I enjoyed the Godbless approach:

Thank you, I enjoy Mountain's version indeed but was not aware of the version you refer, listening to it right now.

From USA (writer) to Ireland (performer) to Scotland (covered):

Hector has many great versions of western classics (classics to the PE crowd, that is), but this one is my favourite, the finnish language sounds perfect on this one:

...

Two great versions of Tim Hardin's classic. Both versions are psychedelic dreamy, but The Nice version is so dramatic.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJjo_TkN1hM&ab_channel=Gandalf-Topic

...

Yes. And Bang Bang too!

Now that's quiet an improvement!

If memory serves they are the Beatnix and have a full album of Beatles' songs never recorded by The Beatles themselves and other oddities. They do an amazing great work and so far it's the definitive...

From the great Flied Egg and Apryl Fool to the world, Mr. Masayoshi Takanaka, ladies and gentlemen! This is what would happen if Star Wars was filmed in Rio:

FZ wrote it but it was 1st recorded by Mother's bass player Jeff Simmons:

When I had this album in my hands for the first time and saw Terje Rypdal was in it, I immediately thought of Not A Second Time, one of John Lennon's forgotten greatest. Oh what a surprise I was...

With all due respect to the great Jack Bruce, this one's the definitive version:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SV05Zk1gNbI&ab_channel=mirzabicakcic

Amazing!

What about Lucille Has Messed My Mind Up?

Maybe not better than the original but a tie. The guitars are of course addictive:

Residents took this Hank Williams oddity to another level:

Ah ok thank you, I was hoping there could be a DOMO (the label) special treat or something :)

Is there an actual album named Domo?

Loving this one so far! Very energic, very good! Reminds me some Kazumi Watanabe Mobo era meets Pekka Pohjola in the Casiopea constellation. The drummer is awesome, but the bass kicks ass as well....

One of my favourites of them all:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxGy8HJzy2M&ab_channel=itacome

Of course you are right!

Wow, I've just listened to Fly From Here - Return Trip, I had no idea that the Drama formation released another album. This sounds great! Love Trevor Horn vocals. And Chris Squire 2nd vocals are a...

A classic (both albums are). Also some spaghetti vibes on 1st track. Dannish Prog had something unique going on.

If The Mothers took a stab at Beatles' The Word, it would sound like very much like this:

...

Coincidently, Hampton Grease Band had one Ruth Komanoff in their ranks...

I think it is a great one, reminded me Animals in places.

Let's hear it from another great italian: Warren Cucurullo, ladies and gentlemen!

Their album has some FZ covers, here's one odd fave:

I was looking for Zauber cover of Eat That Question from their Profondo Blu album on youtube but it isn't there :(

Fair enough :up

Yes, all of their 70s stuff. with a special mention to S/T and Live (1975). That bass/sax riff on the very 1st track on the S/T album will stick within you for years... One of the best bands to come...

Good call! That one never did much for me though, lacks sense of melody.
