Topic: Here comes an Art-Rock Fan! Posted: June 01 2006 at 11:53 |
G´Day Messures! I´m 15 and a half years old, one of the young but seldom Prog-Fans! I´m a very big Fan of Lake... I became Prog-Fan with 14. Thank you god! My father have a huge amount of albums of all significantly Prog- Artists. My
favourite Artists are Black Sabbath, ELP, a little bit of Purple,
Gentle Giant, King Crimson, Jethro Tull (is this really Prog??), Rush
(i love them!), Van der Graf Generator (sometimes a bit too heavy for
my weak nerves) and of course Yes. I make no difference between Art and Prog Rock, but in Progarchives i saw that most of the albums of these Artists is Art Rock...  I do not like Heavy Metal, but Iron Maiden is cool. I
sometimes listen to the solo-albums of Musician like Wakeman (my favourite is
King Henry VII and his 6 wives), Bruford, Anderson (all Yes-Mmbers...
what a surprise  ) but also the other Anderson (the flute genius, you know what i mean  ), Martin Lancelot Barre (really a giant, when he plays on his Mandoline), Peter Hammill, Chris Squire (very aggressive!) and, to be not forgotten my favourite Bassist (after Squire) LAKE! I never heard Dream Theater before, but I�ll do it soon. I heard they�re very loud? I also play on the 6-String acoustic guitar... no i don�t play, I�m just learning it. I wanted to learn playing acoustic before electric and i think this is better. If having questions, ask me! ... Please! PS: A question: Is it a wonder I can´t find Prog-Fans in my area? I hate New Wave
