do they sound like Yes! what year is this?

Absolutely - came up when I had given up on Yes. First heard unannounced on radio I thought it was the new Yes album, only to be told at the end of the tune this was Starcastle - a must have. 1976

I was sure that I have heard something from Starcastle - reminds me more of symphonic rather than neo. This particuar track was very good!!

^ that's ok, I have no idea for the records that have been played during the last hour or so... LOL

really good stuff and interesting variety of sounds and genres

The playlist is on the page above and I've stuck to the Gary Lucas tracks in the order given except swopped this one round with Guerillas In The Midst

My mistake - I am aware of the playlist today, meant that I have no previous experience from CB or Lucas...

^ I think I am lucky not to have heard of them in the past... LOL

I heard sth about Sheffield but I have to admit their music did not pose too much interest to me...

Just sent in by my brother:
Why we are in DEEP trouble sh**

The population of this country is approximately 60 million. 32 million are retired. That leaves 28 million to do the work.

There are 17 million in school or at Universities. Which leaves 11 million to do the work.

Of this there are 8 million employed by the UK government.  Leaving 3 million to do the work.

1.2 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama Bin-Laden, and fighting in Afghanistan.  Which leaves 1.8 million to do the work.

Take from that total the 0.8 million people who work for Local County Councils. And that leaves 1 million to do the work.

At any given time there are 488,000 people in hospitals or claiming Invalidity Benefit.  Leaving 512,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 511,998 people in prisons.  That leaves just two people to do the work.

You and me.

And there you are,

Sitting on your ass, at your computer, reading jokes.  Is it any wonder that we are in such a mess and that I am stressed out through trying to cope on my own?

I have only heard of the name - not their music
Not many decent bands come from the Sheffield area nowadays???

Bill Nelson and co are worth checking out and nelson subsequent releases - Fripp's Dsicipline label issued a double compilaiton of the latter. Learnt only the other day that Babe Ruth's Jenny Haan married Nelson....? Doesn't he still have studio in the Rotherham area?

Have a good night Dick & Athanasios!

Tadpoles keep screaming in my ear
"Hey there! Rotter's Club!
Explain the meaning of this song and share it"

Very nice ending Richard

Have a very good night Martin and Richard
