Erpland is awesome!

Whoa, Passion and Warfare. I get a hangover everytime I hear it, it's one big guitar lead. I'd submit it for upload to the Moon, but I find it just outside the paramaters that I think Jim would set. It certainly is one of my favorite heavy CD's, along with Satch's "Surfing With the Alien". Stu Hamm on both ...connection here! And "Sisters" is such a nice song.

I've been looking for something to match up with "Alien" on my show, maybe this is it...

Ever hear Zappa's "Shut Up and Play Yer Guitar"? I think it's guitar solos from live tracks edited together. Now that's crazy.

There's at least three of them (Son of, Return of, etc). I remember a hilarious song called something like "The Secret Carlos Santana Chord Progression" :rofl:

Thanks for comments to my comment. As I said, compared to many of you, I am a mere prog neophyte, but I would list my favorites as follows (in no particular order)

1. Genesis, Selling England by the Pound
2. King Crimson, Discipline
3. Adrian Belew, Desire of the Rhino King
4. Peter Gabriel, Secret World Live
5. Pink Floyd, Wish You Were Here

My top 5 for the current moment is:

Pendragon - Not of This World
Mostly Autumn - The Spirit of Autumn Past
IQ - Subterranea: The Concert
Opeth - Damnation
Marillion - Script For A Jester's Tear

I cannot name my favourite albums unless the list goes endless, and even then, I cannot say which one I put first, so I guess this is useless ...

Re: Top 5 Prog Rock Albums
 
I am a bit of a Crim junkie so my list is a tad unfair....

1. Discipline - (KC)
2. Power To Believe (KC)
3. Three Of A Perfect Pair (KC)
4. Brain Salad Surgery - (ELP)
5. 2112 - (Rush)
6.
7.
8.
9.

It is Beer Klaas, of the great Dutch band "Finch". His name is Beer, he's half-naked, and he's having a good time. I saw that picture and thought, what the hell...

Just wanted to know if any of the other 70 people in the entire world who bought the Dr. Z album "Three Parts to My Soul" is on this board? For all that matters, if ANYONE out there has heard of them? Sadly, I gave away my album when I moved. Ca. 1971, 3 guys - drums, bass & ....harpsichord. Pretty good, actually. Although it's probably only nostalgia that's talking.

Dear Naganon,
Never listen to this LP ....except perhaps on a web radio
BuT I hold it once in my hands ...in fact a reissue on a beautiful die-cut replica by Si Wan ( South Korean label specialized in obscure re-issues)
Yours,
Mailo

Naganon 08-19-2006 06:57 PM

Re: Top 5 Prog Rock Albums
 
Yeah. I've heard about the re-issue, apparently including the original fold-out cover. I'm pretty sure that's the main reason I bought it in the first place. Pretty original stuff, kind of 'Occult -Lite'. The guy could really play that harpsichord, which I usually rank up there in the useless-musical intruments-category together with steel guitar & bag pipes.

First from Oregon...really? Is there, like a prize for this position...a cookie or something? Actually I was born and raised in Northern Sweden (Boden).
