"Excuse my while I suck your blood,
excuse me when I phone you.
I've got everyone of your records, man,
doesn't that mean that I own you"?

Peter Hammill, "Energy Vampires"

I may be missing something here, but how exactly is it possible to "own an artist"?  Unless youi are a husband of one.

Yes, certainly he is. Unfortunately Can is pretty unique; but if you like Jaki you should try the Phantom Band, in which he was drummer for a while.

By the way, could you recommend me something like Can?  By the way, Jaki is also a great drummer, agreed?

The keyboarder of Gilgamesh is also a member of St. Peter's houseband. Leukemia.

By the way, Phil Lee's guitar in this song is DELICIOUS.

Heh.  I'm checking out the Gilgamesh sample from the site, excellent.  Now, I have to find their albums somehow.  I'd have to download considering I don't ever get $.

Yes, too bad St. Peter was of the same opinion as we and wanted him for his houseband.

Excellent!  Yeah, after hearing the second and third albums in the Gong trilogy I was like, ...alright, he's the man.  R.I.P....

My preferred drummer in prog is probably Pierre Moerlen.  I also love Vinnie Colaiuta.

I'm a drummer too. Let's shake hands! Gilgamesh or In Cahoots could be bands for you; also Soft Head and Soft Heap. That is if you like your drumming jazzy. If you like it more rocky, some early Guru Guru, like "Hinten" or "Känguru" would be excellent for you.

By the way, who is your preferred drummer?

Fantastic.  I like very technical and jammy music, but not too meandering, and groovy or funky.  I'm a fan of solos and very tight melody, and excellent drumming (I'm a drummer).  I hope I'm not being too vague here.

Read again. I said at the beginning that, unless noted otherwise, we have ALL of the albums of the listed artists.

Wow. That is amazing
