Yet Bundles is an exceptionally good album.  I also really love Holdsworth and Etheridge's additions.

It is odd that he doesn't acknowledge his past though... I heard his Desert Island Discs.  It was disappointing.

Did he have that many? Possibly the worse thing to happen to Soft Machine - and he does not seem to acknowledges their existence anymore

Chris, I don't recall you asking for permission to add BS, have you? You did however seek and gain permission to add Peter Bardens back in April, but that has not yet happened. It seems rather unfair to complain about additions by others when you do not complete those you have sought yourself.
 
I have no defense re Peter Bardens inclusion and empowering myself to include him after PA approval. If I said I did not have the time it would sound a lame excuse but nevertheless the  truth.
 
If my comments seem confrontational,I appologise and I will refrain from future opinions but life is too short to walk on eggshells.
 
peace....

My favourite "Louie Louie" quote is the extraordinary finale of "Flakes" on the SHEIK YERBOUTI album! ("I'm a moron and this is my wife...")

Confirmed:  Any song with over 3 chords is prog.  Hilary Duff to be added for that one song with an 11/8 bridge...  INTO RIO.

I disagree. In their first album there are a lot of proggy moments, and some of the tracks have the structure of mini-suites. However, BS were rejected over and over again, though there are many people who are in favour of their addition - which in any case would spark another endless, unpleasant controversy. This is why the Admin team, who are responsible for PP/PR additions, tend to tread lightly these days.

Personally, I have no objection to their addition - on the contrary. However, I'd also like people to express their suggestions in a less confrontational way.

Black Sabbath were just straight-forward hard rock/heavy metal.  I don't think they played a prog note in their career. 
Notwithstanding your view and opinion of course, BS played plenty of prog in their early career. Do  you  challenge me for examples? And when I do compare them to " Gallows Pole", " Tangerine" " Since I been Loving You" ( not that I disagree with all of course) will you still say that "Zebut Puel" from late 70's Poland warrant more inclusion than a metallurgic spasm of a  psychedlic wonderfuelled prog wet dream?
 
peace

Maybe we should give Patti Smith or Tori Amos a shout too given the total latitude to dometicos and it's unchallengable critique?

I also saw Lucia Micarelli perform Kashmire with JT.  Yummy!

L'infonie tease Ravel's Bolero on one of their albums.

Gov't Mule do a lot of live teases, some prog, some not.

Karl Jenkins always borrows his own riff, it seems.  Tunes by Nucleus and Soft Machine, seem to share that riff.  I guess he ran out of ideas. LOL

If you take it like that, the last Jethro Tull concert was a Ian solo concert, too...

You mean "Staircase to Aqualung"? Was fun to listen. Wink
Don't know of "Kashmir". Samples/proof? LOL
