hmmmm the song itself I quite like its beautiful really, but it does noodle a lot at the end...well for most of it really. A peaceful interlude though ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Snow_Dog" rel="nofollow">

You... Okey-dokey... Behold, the true measure of bad taste!! Half the songs on Hendrix's Electric Ladyland, perhaps the first progressive rock album of all time!! (And I sh*t thee not about that last part) |

So if we're on the way to reverse the thread topic, I suggest everything on PF's 'Meddle' that isn't 'Echoes' as a textbook example of rubbish songs on an otherwise great album. ------------- "In war there is no time to teach or learn Zen.

A little... I actually like most of it. But to be honest, I would probably say that the one track I probably despise the most in all of progressive rock would probably be... I know I'm gonna get a lot of crap for this, but about half of Rush's catalogue. I can only maybe enjoy half of any of their albums. |

| I don't agree about everything except "Echoes" from "Meddle", but I would agree "Seamus" answers the question perfectly. Likewise, "Alan's psychedelic breakfast" from AHM. |

Hmm...isn't everything of Spock's Beard pretty much rubbish? Good choice on the Moonchild selection...The " music" throughout most of the tune is pointless...a bunch of ticks,pings, pops, and doings isn't music..it is....well rubbish! |

Didn't Fripp admit to adding that ten minute section due to lack of material? ------------- "Mister Fripp, your music is quite different than everything else out there. In one word, how would you describe it?" "Progressive.... yeah, that's it..." |
