The synth you mention is guitar synths (no keys!) which they started using on Somewhere In Time with a clear intention to broaden their sound. Worked (!) , although my favourite album by them is probably still Powerslave.

I'm sure you already know, but their cover of Nektar's "King of Twilight" surfaced on the bonus disc of EMI's 1995 reissue of Powerslave. Thumbs Up

I didn't actually but will check that out thanks.

ELP - Title track to Trilogy - Trilogy
ELP- The Barbarian - First album
Jethro Tull - My God - Aqualung
Kansas - The Wall, Cheyenne Anthem and Miracles out of Nowhere from Leftoverture
The Moody Blues - too many to mention but a few favorites are candle of life, minstrel song, you and me, my song, so deep within you and the actor.
Rush - circumstances, entre nous, Jacob's Ladder, Camera Eye, Witch Hunt, Losing It, In the End. With Rush it's difficult to say what the deep tracks are because even the so called lesser known songs are appreciated by the fans. Is YYZ or Xanadu a lesser known song? Maybe only to someone who has only heard their radio songs.


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.  

They are all still deep cuts in my opinion. Also, Cheyenne Anthem isn't really anymore well known than The Wall. Yes, you could  say some of these are well known to most prog fans but you could say that about any song from a well known album and also ones others here have suggested. Anyway, it's all in good fun (or at least it should be).

Of course I'm right. I don't know if you have a hard time admitting that you're wrong or if you simply don't know what a deep cut is (you could always do a google search and find out). Either way your take is completely absurd.

I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

Don't know where it was released (or if it was at all) but here's a version of Iron Maiden playing Hocus Pocus by Focus (during the yodeling parts they just yell random gibberish which is hilarious).



I think it was a DVD special or something like that.

Great picks here particularly the two IM cuts and "Mudmen" from Floyd. The Hackett Song is alright, but I feel as though "Bad Girl," is pretty basic for Rainbow. IMO a much better deep cut by them is "Gates of Babylon," of Long Live Rock N' Roll. Its awesome and very progressive.

This great deep cut from Rainbow is the last song on the last album with Joe Lynn Turner as vocalist. Then Deep Purple reactivated.

I think it was a DVD special or something like that.

Maiden's rendition of "Hocus Pocus" was a bonus audio track included on the DVD/CD single of "Different World" for Europe and Brazil only.

^ Entangled and The Camera Eye are great tracks , much admired and talked about. Not deep cuts in any way whatsoever. Alexander The Great is the centre peice of Maiden's (arguably) first prog album. I was told off for including Cinema earlier in the thread! (I also mentioned Whe The Tigers Broke Free. Only heard it for the first time on the Echoes complilation and was not originally included on The Final Cut but later appeared on reissues and the compilation)

^That's ok. I was told off for pretty much my entire post! Lol. I personally don't see how Entangled and Camera Eye aren't deep tracks unless we are talking just among the hardcore prog fanbase (which we all are anyway). But let's say for arguments sake they aren't deep cuts. In that case robbery, assault and battery and different strings (or maybe vital signs if we have to stick to the same album) would be better choices although not necessarily to Genesis and Rush fans!Wink
