Love to see "Book of Saturdays" getting love. Wetton's performance on this song coupled with Fripp's guitar work is just outstanding. Still one of my favorite KC solos of all time at the end of the song.

Awesome Steely Dan reference. "Caves of Altamira" is an awesome track and definitely needs more appreciation in the prog community. "Discipline," is a favorite of mine as well.

Really interesting list! I'm familiar with "Fallen Angel,"(an absolutely majestic piece off Red) "Echoes," "The Song is Over,"(great selection, didn't expect to see the Who on this thread) and "Soapbox Opera,"(one of the most underrated Supertramp songs ever) but I actually don't know most of these. Just went and listened to a bunch off the songs off this list. Wow. "Galadriel," is beautiful, and Hackett's song "Take these Pearls" is an awesome ethereal piece. As someone who wasn't very familiar with Golden Earring I was caught off guard by the 2 9-minute epics on Moontan. I appreciate the knowledge.

OK, here's a very weird one, specially for this site. Not quiet prog, I guess. Now, when I was at highschool I heard a little piece, very electronic, from a friend. It seems it was from an old vinyl or single from her mother. I liked it since then... now, it I thought she told me it was from Richard Clayderman... now, back then I didn't even know much from him (not that I know much more now, actually), but what little I might have looked from him certainly didn't sound like that... I was given a name, in spanish... but it happens its real name is in french. OK, when I finally found it, it happened to be called L'enfant et la Mer... I expect that little piece would count as a deep cut from his discography, but I really like that one (I still do, now that I heard it again), and though short, I guess it isn't totally out of place among things like Jeam Michel Jarre or other 70's electronic pieces. Now, sorry to bring up an artist like Clayderman here, I guess I might have caused a small glitch in the PA system.

Its delightful isn't it. (sorry included an 's' at the end that shouldn't be there) I need to listen to that album more. I love Red but struggle to connect with LTIA for some reason. In answer to another post that suggested that Cinema is not a deep cut, my thinking is that Yes are not reknowned for 'instrumentals', well not in the same way that ELP for instance are. It's the only track off 90125 that I really love. Maybe Hearts would have been a better choice (?) |

Hi,
It's impossible for me to list anything ... of 2K+ CD's and 1500 LP's ... there is way too much great music for me to say that I have a favorite cut from many albums ... and just the minute I find one, another shows up ... and I go nuts ... just recently I played Esperanto's Last Tango album, and that version of Eleanor Rigby is totally out of this world, and the track later "The Rape" is so excellent ... that you quickly forget many things that you have heard over 50 years of being with this stuff ... And I don't want to get into pee shooter contests about songs ... I usually listen to the albums, not just the songs, which makes it harder for me to select one thing out of the rest in the album!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Indoor Games! awesome cut that my brother actually introduced me to. I thought it sounded a bit ridiculous with the horns when I first heard it, but I've grown on it a lot. "No Quarter," is another great selection. I'm not familiar with that version though so i'll check it out. Same goes for "Careful with that Axe," which is also love but I don't know that version.

I can see the argument that these are all deep cuts to non-prog fans, but in the context of this forum, a lot of these aren't "deep cuts." Epitaph, Trilogy, The Barbarian, and Jacob's Ladder (even Cheyenne Anthem) are pretty well known even to non-prog fans in the rock community. I do love to see the Genesis deep cuts you mentioned here (such as lilywhite lilith, grand parade, lady lies, and culdesac) and even South side of the Sky is awesome. I think the songs you mention here that stick out to me the most are "The Wall," and "Witch Hunt," which 100% need more recognition as staples of their respective artists' catalogs.

I'm enjoying this thread immensely! I haven't even thought about some of these songs in years, please keep it up!
For the sake of PA, I'd suggest that our "deep cuts" are whatever we wish them to be, vs. what commercial streaming services dictate. In other words, songs that tend to be under-appreciated or un-mentioned for some reason or another. Take "Time Table" from Foxtrot. This song seems to draw faint praise on PA, but I find it to be a very charming nod to England's past, with some clever lyrics that tie the past to the future.

I completely agree with this right here. A lot of songs on this thread are just songs that are straight up under appreciated. Great take on "Time Table," by the way. I absolutely love this song, and I'm seeing it live next month at Hackett's 50th anniversary Foxtrot tour.

This list is pretty deep. Im not very familiar with a lot of these, but one I do know is "Inside Out." Recently I actually bought the rare "Spot the Pigeon," EP with other Genesis b-sides and singles such as "Pigeon" and "Match of the Day." I got it for barely $10 and its one of my favorite records. I will definitely listen to these and expand my own list :)
