I was downloading the audio files from my purchase of 3rDegree's exceptional live DVD "Live in Europe and America" from bandcamp when a link/recommendation on our esteemed NJ proggrers' page caught my interest. Went over to Half Past Four's page, listened to the studio version of "Rise", then surfed on over to YT to watch a soaring live rendition of that track. A quick search here revealed only a couple of recent threads on our "What's On, What's New" Forum, wherein I learned that Geez is a fan , and we share an affinity for female-fronted bands. Obviously 3rDegree are fans, but I had never heard of HP4 previously. Since the band is Canadian, surprised no one up in Montreal ever turned me onto them (Sam at Melodisc, I'm talking to you; my friends at FreesonRock as well). My ignorance raises another issue about the lack of prominence of the non-Main Board threads...I would never have discovered this outfit there, so felt they deserve the "exposure" of the Main Board. And of course I come seeking recommendations from the previously enlightened, as while their discography is not deep, I try to start with whatever folks consider essential.
