Genesis:
-The Knife (Trespass)
-Get "em" out by friday (Foxtrot)
-Supper's Ready (Foxtrot)

Focus:
-Birth (Hamburger Concerto)

Any PFM album from 1972 to 1974. Listen for the magic from Mauro Pagani.

Re: The most melodius flute's solo in the Prog. Rock

You're most welcome. I haven't looked recently, but if you google wisely, you may be able to find some videos of 2 recent concerts that showcase this sort of thing from PFM. One is the 2002 Japan concert which features Lucio Fabbri and a more recent concert that had a reunion with Mauro Pagani in Piazza del Campo in Siena. The boys are a little weathered with age (ain't we all), but the music is phenomenal.

Re: The most melodius flute's solo in the Prog. Rock

Also gods. Apparently they've agreed to come to Nearfest next year so I may be attending my first prog festival. Non mi rompete is one of my favorites. pretty ballsy (pardon the pun) for the 1970s.

(Funny thing about Selling is that I was just listening to it in the car past few days. Really classic prog. Also being featured album on prog archives.)

Re: The most melodius flute's solo in the Prog. Rock

For me, all of John Hackett's work on Voyage of the Acolyte, but especially Hands of the Priestess part 2.

1:34 minutes of musical genius.

Re: The most melodius flute's solo in the Prog. Rock

A list of good musical flute in prog would not be complete without mentioning Harmonium's "Si on avait besoin d'une cinquieme saison". A look at the list of players shows that there are 2 flute players on that album:

- Pierre Daigneault / flute, piccolo, Soprano saxophone, clarinet
- Serge Fiori / guitar, flute, zither harp, bass drum, vocals

Very melodious!

Re: The most melodius flute's solo in the Prog. Rock

Little known fact - On "Reasons For Waiting", the great tull track from Stand Up, that's Martin Barre and not Ian Anderson on flute. Martin's actually been playing longer than Ian.

I don't like to say "my fav flute solo" etc. or rank things like that.

Gabriel's flute parts are few and far between, and not really that big a part of the music.

I will say that "Birth" is one of my favorite songs...but what starts it for me is the little harpsichord at the beginning of the song.

Re: The most melodius flute's solo in the Prog. Rock

My favourite flute solo is from Eloy "Impressions" on their colours album. Pure XTC.

Re: The most melodius flute's solo in the Prog. Rock

Really friend ! The "Impressions"' solo is very melodius.
I ever was an Eloy fan too, I received from Hannover, of the EMI office a Post Card, which are an ELOY photo authographed by them, which I care so well.
Bye.
