Asia is not pop!! Backstreet boys is pop.
C'mon guys wake up

The Beatles are back!

I think I might add "The Whirlwind" to that list

Love it! I'd like to see him collaborate with Neal Morse on some music. We all know Neal is a huge Beatles fan....

Received mine in today's mail in California. Another fine issue, love the way it is laid out and the quality
of paper used. Nice job once again.

Any new material from TFK in the near future?

Can't really see the point of determining the "least" talented member of any band

Saga

Got mine on Friday, still admiring the cover....

End of an era for me. Saga is what brought me to this type of forum many, many years ago. Met some great personalities on the Saga forum,
including Dropforge, a regular here. I would say Saga would...

Still in NorCal, I got enough money to have fun.
Still wonder about Dave, Uschi, and Pitchman
Sorry folks, don't mean to make this a private conversation, but my first involvement with internet...

Hey D4, can you believe this? 65 and now retired!!
More time to listen to music than ever before in my life!!!
For anyone that might read this, Dropforge is one of the most knowledgeable minds in...

I enjoyed it this time just as much as the first time I saw it. Just an incredible talent and wonderful video.
I've seen a few of these "one man band" clips here throughout the years, but I really...

Beautiful song, the man can do no wrong....

I can't say it any better than that!

Is this THE Lino???

I remember the first CalProg I attended and saw Spiraling, Brisiin was amazing!

Could this possibly be one of the greatest keyboard intros in progressive rock?

BTW, he looks great for being 73 years old. With the passing of so many of our musical heroes lately, it was nice to see him look so lean and healthy.

Yes, I didn't know it was his first solo record in 25 years .He mentioned he had a guitar in his hotel room during the Wall tour and a lot of music
for the record came from ideas and thoughts...

I enjoyed the interview very much. Too much politics, not enough music during the interview.
I suppose I should have expected that. The hour went by extremely fast. Very well done.
Maybe I missed...

I think someone touched on this earlier, but just another chapter on the death of prog....

I told you it was a longshot..... but I still can't believe anyone think it SUCKS.
I guess with the zillion or so TV shows on now, it was refreshing to see a show based on the old vinyl days.

It might be a long shot, but I would guess most people who dislike this show were born way after 1973

I was 21 in 1973, very into rock and roll with my own little band, and I'm loving this series. Bobby Cannavale is fantastic, although I'm having a hard time getting
into Ray Romano as his right hand...

I recently got my shipment from Lasers Edge which included the following:
The Astonishing
Flying Colors Live
Martigan, Distant Monsters

I think Martigan is the best of the bunch.
I haven't...

$250.00 for a decent seat in San Jose

I quite enjoyed that. Thanks

I'd throw Heads or Tales in the list, Catwalk is one my favorites. I actually have a cassette of Heads or Tales
that has an "extended" version of Catwalk, with the guitar solo continuing for about...

Who said anything about God?? Dude you trying to pick a fight? Where the hell did that God comment come from?

Great to see 4 pages of Saga posts. Really one of my all-time favorite bands. Started all this prog chat many, many years ago
on a Saga website. Its where I met the guy upstairs, Dropforge, one of...

I've picked up every Martigan recording I could get my hands on.
A new one is great news! Merry Christmas

Got mine yesterday in California. Nice job John, like the new format. The print in the reviews seems a bit smaller and harder to read for
us old guys. With all that has been said here about the...

Looking at his track record, the many different bands he has recorded with, I would have to say Neal Morse
I like Steven Wilson, but everything he is involved with sounds the same. Can't say that...

Talk about chills... When I first heard this I got chills and tears.
One of my favorite songs, ever.
My son majored in music, specializing on the trumpet.
For some reason the horn break reminded...

Speaking of Foo Fighters, I think Dave Grohl's direction of "Sonic Highways" and "Studio City" films were amazing and very, very well done
Sonic Highways is in heavy rotation on my CD player now

Phil Mickelson
Bubba Watson

I first saw Tom and Spiraling at CalProg and was blown away. This guy is amazing. I guess Spiraling is done now, but they made some great music when together

Touching, beautiful tribute. Just when I thought the tears had stopped...
Thanks Billy

Being 11 when I first heard The Beatles and hit with Beatlemania full force, I remember when John was killed. I cried, a lot. Then George and again
devastation. Yes was the first band that got me...

Anyone with Saga on their list is a friend of mine! I totally agree!

Spock's Beard's masterpiece. End of story.

Damn, I love this band. Awaiting the arrival of the new CD
I really thought "The Suffering Joy" was their best work, but this video has me quite excited.

The guy never listened to Blue Vino....

Holeee shit. Guess what was in the mail yesterday? #67 Thanks John

Just received this and John Mitchell's "Lonely Robot" Both in heavy rotation. If there are any John Mitchell fans out there, his solo
effort is absolutely amazing!

D4!! Great to hear from you. Dropforge, one of the first guys I met on an old Saga forum and has introduced me to some of the greatest progressive
music ever. Can you believe I just turned 63!!...

Wow, never thought I'd see this old thread pop up. Update... after paying for a year subscription and two back issues, I received one back issue and that's it
It was months ago and I just gave up...

The Portnoy/Morse collaborations are the best in progressive rock

Look at Collins , Banks, and Rutherford. Our hero has got to dye that head full of hair...

I sure wish they would come to the West coast. A show at The Warfield in San Francisco would be ideal!!

I purchased Weight of the World upon reading many positive posts right here a while back. Voted best record of the year when it was released
Anyway, this was probably the best new band I listened...

Merry Christmas everyone!
I recently received a new company car which had a display screen like all the new cars have. This is first time I've had a vehicle with all the
new screens and touch...

I think we're on to something here

I just had my first listen to this, not reading anything on these forums about the recording. The only thing I heard was that is was" Division Bell II"
It may have been recorded at the same time,...

2000 release? Has it really been 14 years? I jumped on these from a magazine review, and then tried to get any other releases from Ayreon I could.
Loved this stuff and listened to them constantly...

Probably one of the most original topics to pop up here in a long time.
My collection is quite extensive, I'll let my wife keep what she likes and e-bay the rest

Could we possibly be running out of interesting, insightful, and informative ideas for threads?

Saw them twice at CalProg. Percussionist Brian frequents this forum often. Fantastic band and fantastic people.

I love Magic Pie. The Suffering Joy was absolutely awesome. I'll wait, no problem, as long as there is a new release in the future.
