Re: On Nuevo Mexico

Very well said Rick, I second that warning.

Such comparisons often say more about the limits of the reviewer than about the band itself.

How often I've been disappointed in a band because a reviewer heard a bit of complexity in a tune and said the band was like Happy the Man, or Brand X...

Re: On Nuevo Mexico

Yes Marq! I was reading up on the new Combination Head CD I'll be playing this week (oops let it slip out ) and since this one has vocals (the debut did not) it sounds like "Alan Parsons". I didn't think so...

There's only one brand x

I want to hear someone review Tunnels and say "sounds like Brand X"....

Speaking of reveiwers, you'll like this - Iluvatar's "Children" lists Jim Rezek (keys) name as "Kezer Mij". The reveiwer repeatedly referred to the "excellent playing of kezer mij"...dope.

Re: On Nuevo Mexico

Well thanks for the heads up .. I indeed am a Tull fan and this attracted me, however, what attracted me more was the confirmation that it is a folk oriented band (as was the song I heard .. but could not be sure the whole show was such). So I'll try and find it and hope for the best
