    Help me with a 70's playlist please!

    Really? No one can suggest a single semi-forgotten classic for my playlist? I'd bet loads of you have listened to such a song in the last couple of days? If I've listed this in the wrong forum, please do point me in the right direction!

    Your Favourite "Classic Prog" Album

    One of those polls where your answer would be different on another day. Today, I voted for DSOTM and feel bad for not voting for about half a dozen different options!

    Pallas - The Dreams of Men

    A much better band than their exposure to the mass market would suggest, I really liked them.

    Back after a loooong absence

    Hi all, Just looked at my join date, I've been away much longer than I thought! Hadn't been here long when I got a new laptop at work, lost my password & also the password to the email account the reminder was sent to..... Then a few health issues when I wasn't up to much banter... Anyway...

    Pink Floyd Reportedly Set to Release New Album This Fall

    There's been 3 clips around 30 seconds long released through Twitter. two of them in particular sound very close to Division Bell track themes, the 3rd one sounds a little different, with some soaring guitar from Gods' guitarist. Durga McBroom spent a couple of days in the studio doing some...

    Widowmaker (Official Thread)

    My memories of Widowmaker are of seeing them live, as a support band to The Who on their 1976 "Who put the Boot In" tour of football stadiums in the UK. The line-up in order of appearance was Widowmaker Streetwalkers Graham Parker & The Rumour Little Feat Sensational Alex harvey Band...

    Is Gene Simmons a complete dick?

    This for me too. Also, since the amount of people who suck expands exponentially with your age, you really have to separate the musician from the music, or you'd end up listening to nothing!

    Looking for opinions on U2... positive, negative all welcome!

    It's from the Latin "Bono Vox", meaning good voice

    Looking for opinions on U2... positive, negative all welcome!

    Bono's an ass..... They moved their business to Holland to avoid paying tax (forgetting they do actually pay income tax in Ireland)......... They're Irish & successful & should therefore be despised...... Yeah, they sold out too - they should be changing one note of I will follow every...

    Looking for opinions on U2... positive, negative all welcome!

    They're probably Irish! The amount of venom against U2 in their homeland is astonishing. Worth pointing out that selling out 4 nights in Croke Park, Dublin at 80,000 a night means that someone there likes them, though! I really don't get the "I don't like U2 cos Bono is a pain in the...

    Little Feat (Official Thread)

    I saw the band in 1976, they were one of the supports to The Who on their tour of football stadiums called Who Put The Boot In (heh) They played afantstastic set, Lowell was outstanding. I think a lot of the crowd didn't know them, and their sound was maybe a little laid back for the...

    Coldplay (Official Thread)

    Although Magic sounds a lot like Chris recorded a demo in his spare bedroom - complete with drum machine - and didn't do a whole lot else to it afterwards - I really like it. Very chilled, simple melody. Nice late-night listening

    Genesis (Official Thread)

    The masters are still around for sure, they issued a remastered copy a few years ago. Tony didn't remove Steve's work from the album, but he mixed it so far down you can barely hear most of it. Petty? For sure. At the time, I think Steve was already intimating that he wanted more input...

    i know i posted the same question a few days back, but still looking for a band.

    I like The Who despite what PT may or may not have done, not because of it. I see no need to be ashamed of admiring a persons skill in one area because of their failings in another. But if it helps, I don't think Dave Gilmour has ever been accused of anything too shady, so you can safely...

    Genesis (Official Thread)

    This. (Steve played on the album too, but Tony mixed him out when he quit!) If you're unsure about whether you'd like the pre-poppy Genesis, you can buy this pretty cheap, and it's one of the best live albums you'll ever hear. Also, I'd also recommend the first album with Phil singing -...
