"Hey man, lets jam!"

"Where abouts, Captain Toms?"

"Nah, in a mansion!"

Hocus Pocus - One of the best riffs ever. tho' I'm not sure what Jan Akerman's on there. Some serious clunkers during the intro - kinda reminded me of....well....ME!

Jan's playing in both the clips.

Cool :up:

What I like best about it is that MKII has posted several link to GG videos - and it's all the same track!!!

It's so long that it was cut across several albums and spanned three decades!!!

Ah, 70's prog, just cannot be beaten :up:

:laughing:

Anyone who likes more modern prog could always check out Frost, they've been playing occasionally with Aberdeen boys Pallas and are quite good fun.

Jem, the lead guy from Frost used to be a very famous writer/producer of pop music and then decided whilst working with G4 one time that he really hated what he was doing so went back to his first love - prog. The fact that he also wrote 'That's my Goal' for Shayne Ward (biggest selling single last year IIRC) meant that he had the money and to put together his own project. Jem's a great guy and his music needs much exposure ;)

Cheers

Can I mention I've been out drinking with Jan Akkerman in your prog thread then :p

Am I supposed to be jealous? :p

I dont really like Focus, just the original King Crimson, Van Der Graaf Generator and Gentle Giant and a few other lesser known bands, most prog is HORRIBLE! :gringo:
