Published this evening, the third in my "Old Album, New Thoughts" series, this discussing Pink Floyd's The Wall (The Division Bell will follow next month). The premise of this series is whether my 2024 self agrees with the opinion of my younger chappy regarding classic albums. Back in the day, I thought it was the dog's bollocks. What about now?
This has been published as a podcast on Progzilla Radio at https://progzilla.com/lazland-old-album-new-thoughts-episode-1/ This and all future episodes of this series will now be published at Progzilla. It really is rather good. I should know, I've listened to it several times now!

Just the one new album review this week on www.lazland.org but it is a very interesting one. Electric Mud and Lost Places, class stuff.
To view this, as ever, simply take yourselves to the homepage and click on the relevant link button.

As of two day ago, Stuckfish are now 4 albums in, and there's been no suggestion to include them here whatsoever...not even by Svetonio or one of his many clones lol! This is even more surprising since all the albums are on Bandcamp, though the latest one, entitled simply 'IV', has been released via Rob Reed's White Knight Records label, and there are currently no tracks enabled for streaming. I added all the supported links I could find to the Stuckfish albums on Awesome Prog to make them available in one place, though I didn't bother adding the Bandcamp link to the latest one while none of it can currently be listened to on that platform. The Crossover team currently has nothing in the pipeline to evaluate, so maybe now would be a good time to see if this band could be accommodated here in that sub? I'll see if I can scribble together a suitable biography for them and maybe throw it to the team to see how we get on with it. Edit: Stuckfish are at last included in the database: https://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=12801. Edited by yam yam - September 18 2024 at 08:37 |

Hi Steve. I just settled into the Anderson and Band Geeks album, as we mortals don't move as fast you do. I concur with your review. The only missing point is the amount of enthusiasm that Jon and the band evince on this album. It's definitely a work of passion and joy, and I think that makes the music all the greater. As always, keep up the fine work and know that it's greatly appreciated.

I finally found the time to listen to all the Progzilla pods, Steve. Excellent stuff and the retro review of the Wall was the icing on the cake!

Hi, Steve. I don't mean to suggest that you remain in the Pink Floyd realm on retro reviews, but I would enjoy your fresh perspective on The Pros And Cons Of Hitchhiking. It's an album I've softened to over these many long years, much to my surprise.

That’s not a bad suggestion at all. The next in the series is The Division Bell, and after that I intend to do a couple of Genesis albums, certainly The Lamb, and then a Collins one to be decided. I may well decide to return to Mr Waters, because he is a fascinating subject for docs.

The last update of what has been an exceptionally creatively busy week at www.lazland.org closes with the publication at https://progzilla.com/marillion-a-life-part-two-fugazi/ of the second part of my podcast series, Marillion - A Life (the first part is also available on my podcast page).
It is now 1984. Fugazi has been released, and I discuss this album through the lens of my life. With studio & live tracks from Marillion, there is also music from Band Aid, Rush, and Arena.
