^ At least my Nottingham, England address has more credibility than your "Wonderland" address. Where on Earth is Wonderland anyway? Is it next door to Michael Jackson's Neverland ranch? Smile

LOL

I could write that I'm from Kamchatka, it does not mean that I am from there. 
I wrote I am from wonderland. I guess I am the Mad Hatter or something. LOL
Come on Paul, you're better than that.

Psychedelic Paul, it warms my heart that there are members on Prog Archives that will miss all the terrific reviews you’ve written about the countless Prog artists out there. If it wasn’t for those who write reviews, many of us with less knowledge of them would never discover the plethora of great music available. Myself, I have added at least 10 bands to my favorite list, thank you. And I SO enjoyed those videos you posted which vibrantly illustrated the music and talents of those you spoke about. How wonderful! When I want to listen again, I have but to go to your blog and choose from the many you so thoughtfully posted. But alas, some have been wiped away! What a shame. But, there’s still hope for us with your new Prog Britannia Channel on YouTube. It’s just a travesty that there are some who don’t share in the joy and enthusiasm you’ve shown on Prog this whole time. And I know in my ❤️ heart, that there isn’t a shred of spite in your whole body! It’s out of kindness and a desire to actively demonstrate to fellow Progites. how great Prog tunes can sound and look with videos. So thoughtful! Well, I certainly appreciate that!
See you on YouTube, my friend! I’ll join those who follow you. There will be many I’m sure. Your number one fan, FloydianPinkRose. (Thanks for coming up with my wonderful name, a tribute to one of my favorite bands!)
Thank You My Dear. Heart You're as sweet as an English pink rose, or whatever the equivalent is in down-home Alabama. Smile 
 
I wonder who you had in mind when you said there are some here who don't share my joy and enthusiasm for prog. Tongue

hey Paul, do you suffer of multiple personalities? Big smile

I'm quickly discovering Prog Archives is very much like the Hotel California - I can check out any time I like, but I can never leave. Smile

Smile
Thank heaven - and earth! It came as quite a serious shock to me that you had done what you had been threatening to do: gain the keys and ascend from prog archives! I am very glad to see you will stay on to do your reviews. Big smile
I will still try to contribute to this thread - reviewing albums turns out to be quite a fun hobby, as it means I can appreciate the albums more and help other people who might want to buy them. Though you have made a lot of reviews here on overlooked bands and albums, something that needed to be done, you seemed to have forgotten or not wished to review the bigger bands (unless I haven't looked far back in this thread to see them) - and so I am going to write a review on Wish You Were Here, in my opinion a masterpiece - or indeed the masterpiece - of the brilliant combination of psychedelic and progressive rock music practised by the classic 70s bands of Brittania. Smile

I'll be looking for you on YouTube! Cheers, mate! It's been informative (and entertaining)! As said above, you will be missed (though thank goodness this an archives so I can go back to all your wonderful reviews in this particular thread.)

Peace!
