I know I'm gonna get killed

[Rick and Roll]

that should do it, Jim!

It's funny about vocals. I couldn't do IQ for a long time because of the first (and returning) vocalist. Some people feel that way about Giant (not me, I love that British style).

The "Metropolis" tune is a killer. Try to listen to that one for the hell of it (not to include it on the playlist). There are several other songs throughout their tenure that's probably AM worthy, but it's only one band. Screw it.

Instrumentally, I think they are TOO complicated. The spinoff bands (LTE, for instance) - same way. I have both Transatlantics, but the more I listen, the less I'm interested.

Must be that overblown New York state of mind.
