The Pretty Things not on PA? - Progressive Rock Music Forum

okay - Pretty Things now approved for addition to Proto Prog.

Whoever writes the Bio can leave it here. Since anyone can add an album we'll leave that to whoever wants to do it, either in one go or piecemeal, however, I suggest we have all the details for SF Sorrow and Parachutes before the addition as they are the ones most people will want to review.

What?

Hehe, it was the bio and disco I thought of as the massive task. The addition into the database itself is a 2 minute task at worst with a prepared bio at hand ;-)

Now, if they get approved, whose the unlucky b*****d that gets to do the donkey work on that addition? A massive task ahead for someone by the looks of it.

I've re-bumped the thread in the AZ - we're waiting on one vote, but indications are they will get approved for PP.

What?

I'll look into it.

What?

SF Sorrow is a concept-album released in 1968. What is surprising is that it is not proto-prog but really prog !

"Magma was the very first gothic rock band" (Didier Lockwood)

^ Their first two albums are run-of-the-mill 1960s british R&B Beat combo stuff (two early singles were covered by Bowie on Pin-ups). The next 'Emotions' saw them go Psyche-pop like many of those 1960s R&B bands, SF Sorrow and Parachute are a culmination of that move towards psyche - personally I think SF Sorrow is over-acclaimed, it's okay, but not great. Anything after Parachutes is best avoided.

What?

Currenly under consideration for proto prog, more news soon.

Not trying to put major events in motion, just adding my opinion in the bunch of those that are already here.

There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

I myself found them today, so I'm not the one suitable to handle their addition, but if they'll be found worthy of some of our Prog (or almost Prog - PROTO/RELATED) categories, I wanted to give chance to members here to help. Outsource our work a little bit, give them a hint what's our daily bread (most of us does few biographies on weekly basis) etc.

But what do you mean Dean by double O and what do you Chris mean by 006.5% ?

Indeed, SC has to send application, as in case with Stewart Copeland and Ray Manzarek is currently going on. Who will it be, that's not so sure as of now.

007 is James Bond - "Do pay attention 007" is what "Q" says to James Bond when he shows him all the wizz spy gadgets.

I was making a joke while making a point. Bob has already volunteered to be the SC proposing Pretty Things for Proto-Prog.

all Admins are SCs - in case you missed that too

.

SO, "Do pay attention Marty!"

So that's it :-D I saw most of Bond movies when I was young, so with Czech dubbing (as our foolish TV's dub everything), so I know this line as "Dávej pozor agente 007". + I always confused characters 0 & O, as they look almost the same, so I thought that you said double OO. Smile used in this case would probably be (obvious) O_o

Too overcombined Dean, like plot of very complex movie.

OK, 5 stars equals 5 stars, they have the same adding privileges, but I forgot that admins add bands too, as it's not happening so often (except you, John Easy Money etc).

I listened both mentioned albums, I thought and I'm unsure. Proto ?
