    Favorite progressive rock bands?

    My first guess in "Trivia Mode" would have been Iron Butterfly's In-a-gadda-davida. (Full side) Seems the winner was quite a bit earlier.

    Review Pink Floyd- Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987) ****

    Classic Rock Album of the Day- Pink Floyd- Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987) **** Might surprise some, that in the entire illustrious PF catalog, this one is my favorite. I know I am in the extreme minority, but there are 3 or 4 tunes on this one that are some of their strongest ever. In most...

    Review Rush-Caress of Steel (1975) **** 1/2

    Classic Rock Album of the Day- Rush- Caress of Steel (1975) **** 1/2 You might have noticed I haven't reviewed any very early Rush yet, and thought I'd take on maybe the toughest one to discuss, "Caress of Steel". For me, and IMO it is one of the strangest for me to pan or love...... from...

    What's the most overrated classic rock song?

    Any one of about 6 Bruce Springsteen hits. Springsteen, as an act has been artificially bloated and elevated in stature by the knee padders at Rolling Stoned Magazine and the Rock and Roll HOF. Sorry if I hurt any feelings with that opinion.

    Review Roxy Music- For Your Pleasure (1973) ***

    Classic Rock Album of the Day- Roxy Music- For Your Pleasure- (1973) *** Another poster at another site the other day got me thinking about the Eno-Bryan Ferry collaboration back in the early 1970's that was so far ahead of its time. Roxy Music in any form or fashion, and there were several...

    Your Favourite Pieces.

    Not actually one of my favorites, but I love how Praetorius bridges Medieval to Baroque with his contributions in the very early 1600's.

    Misadventures In Music - Thoughts Unfiltered

    I've had this discussion with many, with really no resolution or proof of what occurred. Maybe some enlightened CRFer can add. On Boston's first album there is a minute or so run at the end of "Piece of Mind" that has a mindblowing 3 part phased building guitar run. These three part are in...

    Classic Rock Album of the Day- Led Zeppelin II (1969) ***** Part of the fun of doing these reviews, is taking the time and in one setting listening to these in a pristine focused manner. Which is counter to normally what you would encounter on a Pandora Station, or Spotify, Classic Rock...

    Review Robin Trower- Bridge of Sighs (1974) *** 1/2

    Fascinating story. Living history as it happened, because I doubt that ensemble got together that often. When I was young, I often how it would be to meet Page. And watch the fret work from a few feet away.

Honestly, before looking up some research details on this band, I...
