SR V: To boldly go where no room has gone before

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).

My ratings were 3 and 4 respectively.

It's a shame that on their Tsongas DVD, of ALL the songs they had, they chose "Every Little Thing."

I would love to hear "Survival" done live.

Damn.

Machine-Gun reviewer Zowie-Ziggy is going to push my review right off the front page. 

And damn.

Zowie Ziggy has more reviews for music in Italian that I have at all.

When I saw In The Present play last November they played Astral Traveller 1 1/2 times.  They got about 1/2 way through it when they stopped because Oliver Wakeman blew a fuse or something.  So we got a bonus Steve Howe instrumental and then they played Astral Traveller again from the beginning.

Did you all download your free maudlin of the Well album?

I did.

I don't even know what the hell they sound like.

I like Kayo Dot pretty okay though.

God I hate that sh*t.

My woman tried to pull that sh*t on me when it came to beer.  You know what the hell I said to HER?






"Yes dear...."

I plan on it.

Did you see my post in the What Are You Listening to Now? thread above the new Jethro Tull Aqualung picture?  I am listening to Organissimo, a funky jazz band that features the Hammond Organ.  They have a free concert that you can download on their website.  http://www.organissimo.org/media.htm   (reposted for the heck of it).  I posted this a few months ago when I discovered them.  I think they are quite good, and just want to share with my PA brethren.

I'm not crazy.
