| Romantic Warrior is the proggiest, but for something more dangerous and longer lasting (IMHO) Hymn Of The 7th Galaxy |

The best I can suggest is the samples offered by Amazon.UK: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000046X0/qid=1124212362/sr=2-3/ref=sr_2_11_3/202-7694684-7859008 - http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000046X0/qid=1124 212362/sr=2-3/ref=sr_2_11_3/202-7694684-7859008
or from the very first album: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000262QW/qid=1124212362/sr=2-2/ref=sr_2_11_2/202-7694684-7859008 - http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000262QW/qid=1124 212362/sr=2-2/ref=sr_2_11_2/202-7694684-7859008 |

Ok Proger, I just pulled out my Chick Corea LPs.. "Romantic Warrier" was towards the end of the Di Meola/White/Clark/Corea collaborations.. It is a very polished album. It's a great frickin record but in my opinion, it does not "sing the body electric"... as much as this next one: "Where have I known you before".. that is a powerful, youthful , electric record.. and I personally like the compositions more than ROMANTIC WARRIER> "No Mystery" is my 2nd favorite, and is also quite good, but not as good as WHIKYB but IMO better than Romantic Warrier. as for Dicks suggestion, it's a good one, but a whole different ballgame. I think I prefer the guitarist Bill Connors on " Hymn of the 7th Galaxy" to Al DiMeola..Bill Connors bent the guitar strings like they were spagetti. Al DiMeola is fast and furious... but not a string bender like BC is... a song on this one (HOTSG) called "Captain Senior Mouse" is just awesome... I used to do a cover of that song a long time ago. Bill Connors was untrained according to his website.. I find him to be a bit like an early Allan Holdsworth... He was simply amazing. Now that I think about it.. this one is tied with WHIKYB.. just an amazing record.. including the title track. How are you set for other fusion... Jean Luc Ponty ? pick up "Imaginary Voyage"... Weather Report? my favorite of theirs is "Heavy Weather"... Gong --- I like "Expresso". Brand X -- "Product". I could go on forever.. Passport was great as well... Bruford's fusion band was cool.. Anyway... have fun. ------------- http://www.myspace.com/artinamerica - Myspace.com Artist Webpage |
