For lengthy discussions of Robert Wyatts utmost brilliance,Can Gong ever make a shit album,Would it be a crime to not want to embrace several forms of hallucinagenics whilst listening to Ozric Tentacles.


You get the jist.
Folk-Jazz-Heavy Prog-Ambient

Everything from Saint Just - Caravan - Syd Barret - Mahavishnu Orchestra - Van Der Graaf Generator.

[Stichman]

King Crimson? Please.

[Fast Caz]

Ahhh which album ?

[Stichman]

In the Court of the Crimson King, of course.

Starless and Bible Black is ace too.

[Fast Caz]

In the court really should go without saying.

Larks Tongue in Aspic is quite overlooked along with Starless

[Stichman]

Yeah Lark's Tongue is pretty decent too. Have you heard any of their live stuff? Awesome.


I see you mentioned Caravan; favourite album? I think they're pretty often overlooked, but they're one of the best British prog bands in my humble opinion...

[Fast Caz]

In the land of grey and pink
Pretty much just for golfgirl which was the frist song i heard by Caravan when i was a tender age of 13 hanging around in the cavern listening to all the prog / metal / krautrock i could with Mike.

Good times.

Hhhmmmm really don't know about that. I mean you can't get any better than Piper At The Gates Of Dawn or Space Ritual.

[Stichman]

Haha, maybe I'm getting carried away with my Caravany love.In the Land of Grey and Pink is just such a good album. I think For Girls Who Go Plump... is a hugely underrated record too, I think it's just quality. King Crimson are my favourite prog band though. Just so much better than Pink Floyd who, for the most part, churned out what is by comparison a raft of pish. True story. Piper at the Gates is pretty ace, but they have truly come out with some amount of rubbish since then.

What about Beggars Opera? Haha

Yeah i really don't rate much of the Pink Floyd stuff after Syd Barret.I liked The Wall Film but music is quite dull.
Fish era Marillion may be on the top spot for me. That's only because Script For A Jesters Tear is one of my top five desert island discs.

Can't actually say i've heard Beggars Opera.

To youtube i go.
