Collision Point - Rolling Thunder
Yeah I go in all those on a Saturday afternoon with my mates. I drink real ale mostly now. Do you go to the rock afternoon at City Hotel? It's the first Sat of every month 4-7pm. Full of rockers and bikers.- LaurieLoz

Collision Point - Rolling Thunder
Ha! No not these days mate. I'm probably a bit older than you are though, I dunno :( I used to go to Spiders every Friday and Saturday in the mid-80's when I was more of a 'proto-goth'. I was into New order, The Smiths, The Cure, Lloyd Cole and they still played loads of punk stuff like The...- LaurieLoz

Hi bud. Been a while since I logged on here but I received a notification that said 'Hull Rocker' and had to investigate as I'm from Hull too ☺ Like the track btw.- LaurieLoz

Songs that have new meaning based on usage
One that immediately springs to mind is The Cars' Drive. Released in 1984 it was a pleasant love song but following its use in Live Aid a year later, the song took on a different meaning altogether.- LaurieLoz

Pink Floyd Announce Reissues of Two ’80s Albums on Vinyl
Yeah it's understandable I guess. I think I mentioned it briefly elsewhere, but there really is a shortfall of live DVDs across the entire history of Pink Floyd - except for the late 60's. Anyone (such as EMI) with a hint of business sense would surely put out some classic concerts from Floyd's...- LaurieLoz

"Pink Floyd" Pulse
Pulse is an excellent recording, the sound being spot on and a perfect memento from that final tour. I haven't watched Delicate Sound of Thunder for a very long time. In fact I still only have it on VHS (try getting hold of it on DVD...it's virtually impossible in the UK!) Just another query...- LaurieLoz

Who is the greatest musician who died before reaching his full potential?
Being from the UK, I'm going to say Ian Curtis who died at the age of 23. he was the founder, lead singer and songwriter of Joy Division - a highly influential act of the post-punk generation. The band scored a classic hit single with Love Will Tear Us Apart in 1980 and I'm sure they would have...- LaurieLoz

It's A 70's Prog-Off!
Definitely Kansas. They're quite unique in American prog, like a Stateside version of Yes and very true to the genre. Styx for me are a very random AOR band.- LaurieLoz

Bob Seger or Neil Young tune?
Neil Young with this one. Now, if the Seger track had been Roll Me Away...well, that would have been something else!- LaurieLoz

A Whiter Shade of Pale or Nights in White Satin?
Great comparison actually, Texas King. Both from 1967 and both classics. I'll have to plump for Whiter Shade though. It's that legendary organ riff.- LaurieLoz
