And here's my tuppence (two cents for most of you guys) worth....damn limey!!!!

Unter, I know what you mean...however, The Tangent has only recently been added to the list and is a phenominal album. I think it's fair then that people will request it heavily for the first few months and then the requests will start to dwindle. My copy of "In......." arrived here today so the chances are I won't be requesting it as much in the future.

There was a time (wasn't there Jim??) when you'd hear 30-40 minutes of Yes in an hour. Ok. Yes are a great band but that is overdoing it. That being said I've noticed that the Yes tracks that come up now seem to be more "obscure" ones like "Arriving UFO" or tracks from 'Union'....that's a good thing. I can't remember the last time I heard CTTE for instance and I, like you unter, listen 8-10 hours a day(I really should get out more......).

Genesis is another case in point. There was a time when "Supper's Ready would get hammered but not any more.

Maybe the regular shouters/chatters could lead the way here. Instead of the themes we've been having GREAT fun with over the past few months we've been together start doing what Jim suggests and each pick a Letter of the day and play more obscure or rarer tracks that way.

We owe it to Avian, progdirjim and, especially, the artists to get this stuff (thank you Neil P) heard.

I'm off to speakers corner with my soap box now to spread the word.

Hell fire there's so much good music out there......let's hear it!!!!!!

Limey git out.
