Cluster? Michael Rother? also!

think its easy to get lost in Klaus discography and
quite a bit is not to my liking either. But his peaks are
well worth it. Cluster and Michael Rother seem to fall
into a similar catagory as KS.

I also think these smoothed out works may not
appeal to the metalheads and they tend to take the
so-called critics advise on the noisy experimental
early 70s as being the classic work of these
composers.

my first experiences with Tangerine Dream for
instance in the mid 70s was Alpha C, Phaedra,
Rubycon and had a so-so opionion of them until
Stratsofear period started greater things. If the early
or later works by TD were how I measured them they
would fall back into that so-so definition. If you dont
find the classics you will not be that impressed.
Kinda like listening to only early Pink Floyd and after
the Wall. Nothing to write home about.

Is there a conspiracy in the PROGARCHIVES against
PROGRESSIVE ELECTRONIC ROCK from the
European Continent. Surely this music is not being
written off as Electronica(formless avant garde noise
noodling), or Techno(the Kraftwerk thread) or New
Age(which formed off of these geniuses). If thats the
case then progressive folk and the ever present
Canterbury jazz fusion noodlings should be wacked
too! After all Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull and the Moody
Blues are all quite diverse but share England as a
common ground. Anything and everything that is
English being accepted. Americans for instance
playing the same music without english accents or
less chaotic is quickly pigeonholed as AOR.

GREAT FORUM, GREAT SITE!!!

Sorry about the British bashing I would think that your
French, German and Scandinavian neighbors may
have some of the same feelings. I recognize that this
is a Canadian webhost but the brainwash is
apparent.

I also recognize that the English are in an unenviable
position of being right in the middle, and I dont want
you to think that I dont have the utmost respect for the
english contributions!
