The first two Yes albums would both get a 3 from me.  Very enjoyable.

There's plenty of pop content, sure...but man, "Then," "Astral Traveler" and "The Prophet" are almost proto-prog masterpieces (if you think about it).

   Agreed. 


It's good, but nothing outstanding. I'd probably give it a 2 or a 3, leaning towards 3.

Well, I did all that, and I'm telling you, it's worth the investment (time wise).

Read the last sentence of the first paragraph of the review I just posted.  That's my theory anyway.  Normally I don't add spoilers to concept album reviews, but I couldn't help putting that in there.

Mirage by Klaus Schulze... holy crap. I'm pretty sure I like this even more than First Utterance. Pure genius.

I'll try it again one of these days. I was unimpressed though.

I'll return later in an even more bitter and depressing mood.

Bye all.

If you listen to "The Hazards of Love 4" and don't want to dance with your woman, you have no soul.

I possibly could if they didn't check IDs. LOL


The Highlander in Fayetteville, NC.  That was my old watering hole.  Anybody was welcome.

So long as you don't mind cigarette smoking in restaurants.

Do you Alex?

Hmmm?


Haha, not this again. LOLLOLLOL

Pubs are no smoking now.  So us non-smokers have it good now.

I drank in a pub in Piccadilly Circus when I was 16 and no one cared.  I just assumed those laws weren't strongly enforced.


Come back to the UK.

I need to bond with my P.A. Brethren.

I might be meeting Bern at some point in the future.  He's going to study in Berlin. Big smile
