ProgPos Blog - Genesis Studio LP Tour

 

The vinyl was in a really bad shape, with years of wear and tear and bad handling. And I was in a kinda bad shape myself, having a cold and fever. But listening to the album, I was blown away more and more each consecutive minute, just as you say, Khatru. The cold and fever also had a very unexpected positive  effect on this, I went into a kind of trancelike state because of this, and that made the album even more enjoyable.

I appreciate the feedback.  Before making a decision, I'd like to share a little of the thought process behind what I've been doing. As always, I welcome your opinions!

 

This was posted to the "Blog" section of the PA board.  I'm still relatively new here, so perhaps someone can help me understand how a Blog could work better on the ProgArchives board.

 

I've considered opening a new topic many times.  That would have resulted in quite a few independent threads all doing "their own little things" by now...  This clearly has advantages in terms of simplicity.   But I felt there would have been something lost in terms of continuity with respect to the "Blog" concept.   

 

Perhaps, I should ask, in this context, what does ProgArchives consider to be a "Blog"?  I've tended to think of it as a journal of sorts... a semi-regularly "updated, chronological publication of personal thoughts".  

 

 

If I were to start up a new "Blog" thread each time another topic of observation came along, it  devolves into something quite less than a Blog to me.  Perhaps more like a random scattering of various mini-Prog-Editorials here and there. 

 

One answer might be, "Mark, this is a discussion board with *threads* - not a Blog".

 

And while I'm certainly willing to listen and consider that perspective, at this moment I would be left wondering "why then - is a section of this board set aside and reserved for Blogs?"

 

Your thoughts?

Yeah no one wants to imitate the vocals of Greg Lake do they
