Captain Beyond
I'm not asking this to create an issue, especially because I like the record, but I was curious about the inclusion on the Moon. I think it's similar to Budgie, maybe the Who, and host of other early 70's great rock and roll that may never (and to my mind probably shouldn't) make it on the Moon.

Captain Beyond.......... :)
I got into this by hearing it on a Gnosis show.
To my way of thinking it's up there with a lot of other stuff on the Moon. One of those Tweeners. |

And the "veterans committe" is a reference to baseball, where if a player misses the Hall of Fame in the first 15 yrs, a veterans committee can later vote him in. OOOOHHH an American reference misses Keithie! (I'm still 8 or 9 behind lol). Last edited by Rick and Roll : 10-26-2005 at 06:17 AM. |

And "Thinking man's hard rock?" I saw them in the 70s. There wasn't much thinking going on there, m'lad... Roger -Dot- Lee, was forced to go. At gunpoint. Yeah, that's it.

Hrm. Methinks you're starting to stray a bit from our 'prog' genre. I like UFO, but I don't believe they have a place on The Moon. 70s and 80s hair rock notwithstanding, natch. But then, I'm not the program director, and don't want to step on Jim's toes (especially with his Martial Arts training).

I think Jim's answer was right on, I was just curious about the addition. Remember, I'm only playing it once. You want "straying", there's plenty on the Moon to choose from. I didn't find the last show with other Moonies' selections any more "prog"..... I better go make some money.... |

Re: Captain Beyond
"Sufficiently Breathless" is a wonderful song, musically and lyrically. I'd love to hear it.

Re: Captain Beyond
I'm not a big fan of either of these three bands, but I wouldn't bitch if they were in the library (well, maybe the UFO inclusion would throw me a bit). Honestly, how often are they going to be requested? And if some obsessive AM listener starts inundating the system with requests, they can always be pulled.
Thanks, Captain Obvious |

Re: Captain Beyond
hey all-
sufficiently breathless was a mainstay of college progrock fm stations in my area de the 70's. i bought the japanese import around '90 for the then princely sum of 24.95. fyi- capt. beyond was iron butterfly bassist lee dorman and (1st album)drummer mike pinera. here's a bit o' trivia- SB was sung by "hush" era deep purple vocalist rod evans. CB folded after their mentor, fellow capricorn artist berry oakley of the allman brothers died in a motorcycle accident. switch off the prog filters. this is good stuff, although some tunes have weathered better than others. we didn't know (or care) that we were listening to "prog" at the time, it was all britrock. i kinda miss that. k

take a ride over to the thread on my show and you'll see one such song for this week. "Blind" from the third Purple record. Rod Evans can sing. I have some less complicated music but mostly the good old 70's rock to play, hope you can join in .... Hey Michael, no problem here...be interested about the Armageddon... |
