Fully agreed! DB has done excellent tunes, but also some we'd better forget.

Best regards!

Barclay James Harvest :barf::barf::barf:!

Initially they intended to be proggers. There's even a short concert film with them (shot by Wim Wenders in about 1970, btw.) that shows them playing...

:crying: The songs that appeal to me easily can be counted by the fingers of just one hand...:crying:

Best regards!

Another one: ASIA :barf:!!

Four superb musicians that squandered their talents and skills to blatant mainstram and commercialism. What a waste! What's the thrill in Heat of the Moment, for...

That's exactly how it should be done, isn't it?

Best regards!

<Edit> To EC: Yes, his work with John Mayall, Cream, Derek & the Dominos (fabulous double live album!), Blind Faith, and his early...

Objection! There's not a single one that I can stand!



Fully agreed! He was one of the best guitarists ever! I prefer him over EC, for instance (but not over JP :D ).

Best regards!

Just to wake you up: Michael Jackson :barf::barf::barf:!!!

This guy (gay?) appeared to be the archetypical US neurotic. Massively overrated and praised primarily for his huge output that was...

I like almost any JT output until 1976/77 when they decided to play pop music. I really enjoy their 1972/73 flirts with Progressive Rock Thick As A Brick and A Passion Play.

Best regards!

Yes, Chicago started as an ambitoned jazz rock band, but turned into a commercial one. Very similar to Blood, Sweat & Tears, btw.

Otoh, The Flock was a band that preferred to fold instead of...

OH WELL - great song and great inspiration to many other rock artists. Most prominent should be LZ's Black Dog. Feel free to compare!

Best regards!

Well, any Doors album excels the outputs of either 'American' FM and JS :blink:!

Best regards!

Fleetwood Mac. They clearly present two rather different sides of the medal. The first one was the 'British', blues influenced one with good melodies and deep lyrics, which I definitely admire....

Wow! Honestly, this supports any prejudice that exist wrt »thick« Americans :blink:!

Best regards!

No, they don't. I own belt driven as well as idler wheel TT's that have strobe markings. The important thing is where the strobe lamp is fed from. When fed from the mains supply, we have the...

Most probably you won't :D.

The deviation has nothing to do with mains stability. The cause are strobe markings. For 45 rpm, we in the 50 Hz world need 6000/45 = 133.33... line pairs on the...

That's astonishing, as you live in the 60 Hz world. Here with our 50 Hz a difference of 1/400 (=0.25 %) between 33.333... and 45 rpm versions is quite normal.

Best regards!

Yes, of course you're right. It was Roy Wood, former fiancé of Annie Haslam, btw, whom I mentioned in another thread. Renaissance's Trip To The Fair (from Sheherazade and Other Stories) was dedicated...

I don't know if they were mentioned yet: The Electric Light Orchestra :blink::blink::blink:. This band emerged form the remainders of The Move, a Birmingham band that had several UK hits in the...

In general, the most creative, experimental, fruitful, diversified, and artistic decade in popular and rock music was between 1965 (with The Beatles' Rubber Soul and Revolver albums) and 1975. Then,...

Most probably you're right. Most probably you, as an United Statesian, have more clue than me about the Grammy. Anyway, the outcome of processes like these directly leads to the suspicion that sales...

Right, this was part of the announcement for the succeeding 2012 Summer Olympics at London.

I think JP has retired as a musician and completely resorted to administering the LZ heritage.

Best...

In summer '17 we saw JPJ live and open air performing with a bunch of Norwegian musicians at Wuerzburg, Germany. As LZ fan, I had certain expectations for sure. What a dissapointment! The music we...

I swear: Never ever will I throw any money out of the window for Cristopher Crap/Cross!

Best regards!

Grammy awards (same as academy awards, btw) are given just for maximum sales numbers, aren't they? That is, the probability of achieving such an award is just a factor of how one manages to adress...

Just heard it at German radio station NDR1 while we were dining at the balcony: Christopher Cross :blink::blink::blink:!

I'm wondering who really needs this kind of nothing. Is there really any...
