11 delicious slices of Mom's proggiest apple pie, but which would you eat? I'm going for Meatloaf's Paradise by the Dashboard Light. I saw it on The Old Grey Whistle Test when I was 17, and remember thinking it was one of the greatest things I'd ever seen. I saw it again recently on BBC4, and still think it's one of the greatest things I've ever seen. RIP. |

Laurie Anderson. You haven't lived until you've heard Big Science, from whence O Superman comes. Compare to Kraftwerk but with a New York attitude. ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

This one goes to Phideaux. "O Superman" is absolutely seminal, though. ------------- I use they/them pronouns (feel free to ask me about this!) Check out my music on https://tempestsounds.bandcamp.com/" rel="nofollow - my bandcamp ! |

Nothing on that list compares to Laurie Anderson's Big Science ------------- I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there..... |

Gotta go with Only Skin on this one. Ys in general is one of my favorite albums of all time, as well as one of the best modern folk records  ------------- Take me down, to the underground Won't you take me down, to the underground Why oh why, there is no light And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life https://www.youtube.com/@CocoonMasterBrendan-wh3sd |
