  1. Took my 10 year old son to see it, we both thought it was funny as heck. To each his own but I recommend it.
  2. Free-all right now. also done by Rod Stewart I believe. you can be the captain and I will draw the chart
  3. I'm with Bob,Ummagumma is awesome. I'm a fan of the early stuff. "Dark Side" got a little over-played for me. "Atom Heart Mother " is my fav. I'm not sure of the prog label, though they do fit the description. I like the title "space rock" best I guess, a sub catagory of prog[] "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" with Syd Barret (before Gavid Gilmore) is another fav. If you like Floyd I recommend the book, "Inside Out" by the drummer Nick Mason. Very good read, with lots of good pics. I have about 30 boots of Floyd, their early stuff was amazing. They would play a song for 40 minutes, just extended jamming. Gotta love the Floyd
  4. Hey Thebes the trash from Texas is honored[] I'm doing Gentle Giant-The Power and The Glory, 35th anniversary edition on CD One of progs greatest bands, has to be in my top 10 for sure. I guess like Genesis and King Crimson for a comparison.
  5. The only incarnation of Fleetwood Mac that mattered. Peter Green should be on every top 10 guitarist list,
  6. Love Phish, I agree not Prog but most who like prog seem to like Phish. Kinda like Gov't Mule and Widespread panic.. sort of kind of[]
  7. I finally see the dawn arrivin' I see beyond the road I'm drivin' far away and left behind
  8. This should be easy we're just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl, year after year
  9. What is that, or who are they?
  10. FOUND IT!!! Well close anyway. He has it under another title. "Topographic ocean view" Says the sound quality is decent, we'll see. I'll let you know when it comes in. Cool TRon--- Where did you find it--? I'll contact them, or can you send me a copy? I'll make it worth your while-- Only one copy, but when I get it I'll burn you a copy. It will be a couple weeks. PM me your address. Dragonfyr, its music for the mind....that could explain it[] You either like Anderson or hate him. I think hes great. BEST live show ever. They are pompus, so are most proggers. Guess thats what I like about them. Talent and they know it. Better than "thinking" you have talent when you don't... see Eddie "wow I can rip off a guitar solo for the next ten minutes, watch me go" Van Halen. Yes, Genesis, Nektar, King Crimson, Porcupine Tree... you either get them or you don't. I don't get Creem, most do, eh, my loss I guess. I have no part in the Yes success or failure so it makes me no never mind when people don't like them, I just TRY to redirect them because I enjoy them so much, but eh, your loss[] I can't believe I have to put this next part in here but I've seen the forum react so.... PLEASE take this in the spirit its given in (I'm better than all you[]) these are just my opinions, however right they may be. The following has been in fun, FLAME ON BABY[]
  11. West's lastest stuf .... is Lame beyond belief ..[] he lost 180 #, and his Mojo with it ...... Agreed, but in his day....[][][][]
  12. "Can't find my way Home" should be on every greatest hits compilation there is. Okay, maybe thats overboard but I agree, a great song, as is "Presence of the Lord" heck the whole LP is just plain good. I have a boot of theirs that is pretty amazing. There are sooo many guitarists out there that bury Clapton (IMO) in no particular order: Johnny Winter Robin trower Richie Blackmore (see his recent acoustic stuff[]) Leslie West Steve Hackett Jimi Hendrix Albert King I could go on
  13. Clapton just never did it for me, I like Blind Faith but I think thats a function of Steve Winwood, who I REALLY like.Traffic rules!!! I agree Clapton seems to work at being a "blues guy". Muddy Water oozed blues, as does Johnny Winters. and he ruined Layla, that slow acoustic version makes me ...well never mind. Duane Allman is rolling in his grave over that one.
  14. WOW!! thats Bloodrock.-DOA or something like that?
  15. So I'm looking through the CD's at my local used joint and what do my eyes spy...a CD by Pat Travers called "The PT Power trio" a CD of covers. White Room by Creem Day of the Eagle by Robin trower Fire and water by free Dreams of Milk and Honey by Mountain you get the idea. This CD is GOOD!!! Anyone else hear it? I'm not a huge Travers fan but he tears it up on this. Aynsley Dunbar is on drums.
  16. FOUND IT!!! Well close anyway. He has it under another title. "Topographic ocean view" Says the sound quality is decent, we'll see. I'll let you know when it comes in.
  17. E.L.O. from Eldorado, Can't get it out of my head next: you'll never find your gold on a sandy beach you'll never drill for oil on a city street
  18. I spent 3 hours on the net looking last night, best I came up with was the cover art and track listing for it.
  19. When I'm sad she come to me with a 1,000 smiles she gives to me free
  20. You're right your faith will see you and your wife through this. Be strong for your wife, The Lord will hold you up. You and your wife will be in my families prayers. God bless Ron
  21. Guess I'm stuck in the 70's[] I'm not a fan of the Trevor Rabin era Yes. My fav by them is "Close To The Edge" That one and Genesis' "The Lamb" are THE prog standard. I agree if Chris Squire is there it can't be to bad. I just love the sound of the classic line-up. I know its been played to death but "Roundabout" still stops me in my tracks. Wakeman...what can you say? THE MAN!!!!! TRon--you have any Wakeman solo stuff? Wives of Henry the 8th is very very good--amazing how he paints the personalities of the wives into the songs-- I'm sure you have some--what else is worth getting? Journey to the center of the earth.. lots of orchestration No Earthly Connection... NO orchestration Night Airs...if you're in a mellow mood find some samples and check them out[]
