The Shred Room II (with extra youth)

I instantly recognised Oldfield (obviously), Ratledge, Hillage and Malherbe but missed some of them. Nice seeing Jenkins in there. Really underrated musician.

You've got the attitude, Pat. , well I was listening to chamber prog while painting Not quite as good, but nearly there. I still think Ozrics would have been better. PSYCHEDELIC PAINTING, MAN! Bah, go review some Zeuhl.

I've been too lazy over my break to review.

I thought with ALL the time that I'd get a bunch of reviews in... I've only done like 3 or 4 over the whole break.

It's clearly that kind of work ethic that got you promoted.

Oh and I recognised Hillage but couldn't remember his name.  His hat was distinctive.

Indeed.

Seriously though, I'm a huge workaholic when it comes to when I actually work. It's really funny that I'm a prog REVIEWER, because I'm not much of a writer to begin with---I'd rather do math problems than write an essay, but I'd rather write an essay than give a speech or presentation or skit---so I don't work as hard at reviewing as I would something else I would be much more enthusiastic about.

Nonetheless, I do like reviewing occasionally and I go through spells. Usually though, when I find something that I'm going to take the effort to work on, I tend to immerse myself completely in it until I accomplish what needed to be accomplish (or more), which can lean on tendencies of obsession. The motivation has to be there though.

His playing stance, haircut and glasses being over his hair made him instantly recognisable. It was weird to seem him play the grand piano though. Hard to imagine Ratledge withough a fuzzed and metallic organ sound.

Yay, it did the trick. It stopped burning.

Yep.

There was some organ in there too... but that may have been Greaves or Hodgkinson (who I didn't even notice).

And was that fuzz bass playing by Frith or someone else?  I know Frith plays bass and guitar on it.  I think Frith played the guitar solo actually.

No, I really should not. But the Christmas one have to go.
