    Re: Jethro Tull It may well be Mr Hammond-Hammond but don't overlook this gem Containing the "original" TPP album, the aborted "Chateau D'Isaster" tapes Robust stuff? Not 'arf! [I assume you were fortunate enough to see Tull avec Abrahams...?] .

    The Alan Parsons Project (Official Thread)

    Re: The Alan Parsons Project They only made two proper LPs Pampered Menial and At the Sound of the Bell. I'd be very interested in which one you have. The jury is out as to which is best. I'll go with the first Pampered Menial although the second has one of my favourite tub-thumpers...

    Warhorse (Official Thread)

    Re: Warhorse Yes an excellent band - I have both too although the first is superior methinks. Quite close to the DP Mk1 sound and that isn't a band thing! As for Purple, many would agree with me that the eponymous LP is their finest. Robust stuff? Not 'arf! .

    The Alan Parsons Project (Official Thread)

    Re: The Alan Parsons Project Yes, sorry my perceptive friend for my obvious ambiguity. The latter. I have a soft spot for the unusual voice - Family's Roger Chapman, Pavlov's Dog's David Surkamp, If's JW Hodkinson et al .

    Mogul Thrash

    I used to frequent John Peel's In Concert Show at The Paris Studios, London from around 1970 to 1974 and had the pleasure of seeing Mogul Thrash twice. They were robust And loud. Wetton has a great voice and is a very solid bass player He has a long pedigree which is well deserved...

    King Crimson (Official Thread)

    Re: Any King Crimson Fans in the House? Not Crimso. Discipline onwards is the band Discipline. They were called Discipline for six months and then Fripp realised that perhaps that was a mistake and reverted back to King Crimson. Post Red is just nonsense and not worthy of the Crimso...

    Atomic Rooster (Official Thread)

    Re: Atomic Rooster I am a sucker for the Hammond organ. VC was a master. Sadly his head was not as sound as his nimble hands. One of rocks sad losses. He never knew which direction to go in. Dexy's Midnight Runners...? Behave. Listen to the opening line of the opening track...

    The Alan Parsons Project (Official Thread)

    Gong and the Gong family

    No, agreed my learned friend they certainly weren't as robust as in their heyday. I recall The Chalk Farm Roundhouse gig back in 1971 as if it were yesterday. My point about the recent tour is that the old boy (and girl) can still hack it. Robust stuff? Not 'arf! .

    Camel (Official Thread)

    Re: Camel We will have to differ my learned friend We will have to differ TSG to my old ears, whilst still robust, is somewhat lacklustre compared to the giants such as Mirage, Camel; and Moonmadness. Treat yourself this weekend - give Nude another listen. It was a mighty fine...
