Well - I am big into Neal Morse and Spock's Beard at the moment:

Neal Morse - ? - Temple of the Living God
Neal Morse - One - The Separated Man
Spock's Beard - Octane - There Was A Time

Also enjoying Triumvirat - turned on to them by VAX - especially Illusions on a Double Dimple but also some of the bonus tracks.

And of course, I just got the CD Emerson, Lake and Powell and really have been enjoying it - especially The Score; Miracle; and Mars, the Warbringer

Enough for now!!

Thanks for reading....

And I was glad to play it...

You'll know over the next few months what I've been listening to by what's on the show. Yes, the teaser....

My CD collection is boxed because I will be moving at some point. My music selection is limited to those disks that happened to be out and about at the time I packed. What I have in it now is Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. The ones I can get to are Who's Next, Fragile, Emerson,Lake,and Powell, Enigma's MCMXC aD, and Nirvana's Nevermind.

All of these are "old favorites" and no one track sticks out.

[mailotron]

today's listenings

Jethro Tull : Heavy Horses
Jethro Tull : Burstin' out first LP
Jethro Tull : Too old 2 R'n'R : too young 2 die
Ozric Tentacles : the floor's too far away

The best part of being a moonie is finding the Quality recordings that thrill us Prog listeners. As We get a New disc, rediscover an old favorite, or get an old classic for the first time, I would love to here your opinion. My old Carousel disc player would hold 5 Cd's. Usually 3 were in for a month with rotation in the other slots. So in this vein:
What do you think of the new....Fill in the blank
What can't you stop playing?
What disc has held your interest for awhile?
Which Tracks knock you out?
And of course, What new CD's disappoint, good at first then forgotten later, and finally, what discs are just bad
So enter often! Tell us What you think updated for the years to come each time you get something new!!

New: Saga - Network - At last getting back to their best writing and sound.

Cannot Stop - Eloy - Floating - This has been one rediscovered for me and I just cannot put it away. It is always loaded in the car, home and on MP3.

Used to be big - All the Rabin era of Yes. I was a huge fan at the time of Trevor rabin era of Yes (culminating the best concert I had seen at the time in 'Union' Tour at Wembly). I have now grown up a bit! and fully appreciate the Steve Howe years.

Favourite Tracks - Eloy - Illuminations; UK - Rendezvous 6.02; Saga - Images

Disappointment - Eloy - Eloy - Their first album and what a dog! I spent years tracking this one down and when it finally got an airing I was so p...ed off. It has never been played again despite being a huge fan.

I too think House of Cards, Network, and the one in between (name escapes me) is back to form...however, I was less than pleased with Trust. Would love to see them at a festival. I've heard the Jim Gilmour is decent, but i've yet to make the plunge.

Speaking of listening, I'm now engrossed in the Andy Partridge 7-disc "Fuzzy Warbles" set. Just getting through Disc One.....quite fun!

This after the catchup of CD's over the last few months, and my introduction to the Porcupine Tree years between "Sky Moves Sideways" and "Deadwing".

Hi rick, I think it is trust that I was meaning!
The Jim Guilmour album Great Escape is excellent, I managed to pick up a copy cheap on ebay. Some real prog rock on offer. Any means of sending over a copy?
Have fun.

At least we both like Saga! When you get time, fish back in my Rickter scale thread to see the saga show i played. I'm guessing it's sometime in Spring 2006, if you can't find it let me know and at home later i will dig it out.

I'll buy the Gilmour soon - I just spent a lot on CD's, but I need to get the latest rare Blend and i'll add on until i get wish list. thanks for the offer though

[Richard701]

Current 5 on my playlist ...

RPWL - World Through My Eyes
Philip Glass - Glassmusic
Adiemus - Songs of Sanctuary
Salem Hill - Mimi's Magic Moment
Blind Ego - Mirror

I guess the last one is cheating a bit as it's not out until 26th Jan, but I have several of the tracks already downloaded from Blind Ego's and Kalle Wallner's websites! Kalle is the lead guitarist of RPWL and this is his first solo band project. The line-up includes John Jowitt and Paul Wrightson, formerly of Arena. John Mitchel ex of It Bites, and Tommy Eberhardt ex drummer of Beat Freaks and Legazy (not that I have heard any of their music). Well worth checking out for and adding to the Aural Moon playlist!!!

Radiohead Amnesiac
Strawbs Ghosts
Landberk One man tell's another
TFK Unfold the future
