Agreed. The singer is excellent and the band supports him quite well by
not getting in the way with a bunch of pointless flash.

I too often hear Pop referred to as neo-prog. Egdon Heath is a pop band
and a damn good one at that. If taken as such, I would put it near the
top of the list for sure.

I'd like to get in touch with people that have seen Asia live on the
current tour. I'm interested in how you think this new band stacks
up to the original band, and how you feel the old songs are covered
by the new line-up. I suppose "covered" could actually be taken
in a literal sense at this point!

Also, any observations you have about Payne's stage presence and
Downes' change in performance style (I've been told he actually
looks like he's enjoying himself these days!) would be appreciated.

If you can get back to me before thursday, that'd help me a lot.

Red Queen is the only one that's 100% instrumental; the 4th album titled
Raindance is about 50% vocal tracks, 50% instrumentals, and I think if
you approach it armed with that knowledge, then you won't be disappointed.
The first two albums are mostly very old traditional folk songs, and in
my opinion, your money would be better spent on the domestic compilation
which contains the best of the first two, almost nothing from RQtG3, and
only a few tracks from Raindance, but definitely get Raindance first.

Hi everybody!

  Does anybody in Europe know one place where the live CD of PFM is being sold? 
I've been in London 2 months ago but I couldn't find it. Someone has told me that
there were 6 months that this CD was not being delivered. Does anybody know the situation right now??
  It is really hard to find CDs from them. I have just one: "Chocolate Kings", that I've bought in Germany (there was another one that I didn't know it), in which there is this song called "Arlecrin" (?) that has an instrumental part with violin very, very good. 

Thanks to any information...

Hi everybody!

	I am a big fan of progressive music looking to expand my horizons.
For a starving graduate student, I spend a lot of money on CD's, and I'm
getting to the point where I own all the records that I know I like.
I want to try new groups, but I'm facing a big problem: Not very many
stations play progressive music, especially the groups I haven't listened to!
CD's by some of these groups are expensive imports or hard to get and when
I've gotten some, they have been frequently disappointing.
	I'm desperately looking for help :-). I've heard good things about
groups like IQ, Ozric Tentacles, Gentle Giant, Pendragon, Brand-X, UK,
Swans, etc ...  But I haven't dared to buy anything from them. Below I try
to give you an idea of what I like.
	I rate a number of groups on a scale from -10 to 10. These ratings 
ust indicate how much I like the groups, not how good they are in any
absolute sense. I will also indicate how much I know/have heard of them
with stars, three meaning "I've listened to almost all their records,"
two "I've listened to a proportionally large number of their records,"
one "I've listened to more than one record, but I'm not sure what I've
listened to is representative of all they've done," and no stars meaning
"I've listened to very little by this group."
	Fish-era Marillion and Genesis (Up to "And then were three ...")
are in the top of my list (9.5***).  Yes ("Fragile," "The Yes album,"
"Close to the edge," "Relayer," ...) is very close (8***).  Then I would
list ELP (7-8***), Pink Floyd (7***), Jethro Tull (7**), King Crimson (6-8*,
I find this band really interesting, but I don't get so much "emotionally
moved" by it), Supertramp (5**), Peter Gabriel (4-6**), Renaissance (5*),
Led Zeppelin (3-6**), Queen (5**), Rush (4*), Camel (3*), Asia (3*),
Aragon (3*), Saga(1*). I've also listened to some solo albums by people
in the above groups.
	Remember that I'm a poor student, so I'd like to maximize
satisfaction while minimizing dollars spent. I would greatly appreciate
suggestions for things to listen to. 
	Thanks for your help,

I originally was the one who asked about Porno.., and I was flamed for it.  The
flamer apologized, though, but still people kept replying and flaming.  Yuri
wasn't flaming anyone, he was trying to discourage it.  I gave up cutting down
people who flamed me because I don't have that much time.  He just was adding
to the anti-flame feelings.  Just thought I'd fill you in on what's happening,
so your not surprised when you get mail/response from Yuri, as I'm sure you
will.

I have Free Hand on CD, but I think I bought it in London...Playing the Fool

Hi there!

I've got two questions about Mike Oldfield:

1) Does the word 'Amarok' mean anything in any language, or is it a 
    nonsense word like 'Ommadawn' ?

2) I've recently purchased the CD-Single 'Sentinel (single restructure)'.
    It's got three tracks:
      * 'Sentinel'
      * 'The Orb 7" remix'
      * 'Early Stages'
    (I'm not sure these are the exact names, 'cause I haven't got it here.)
    All three tracks are different versions of 'Sentinel' (the first track
    on 'Tubular Bells II'). Now I wonder if someone can give me a little 
    information on the last track, which seems to have been recorded (as 
    the name implies) quite early in the process of making TBII. It is a 
    very interesting piece, since it sounds much closer to TBI than the 
    final version of 'Sentinel', and could, perhaps, be seen as a sort of 
    link between the two albums.

Ciao!

Yes.  Note: I'm making a weak claim, that many fans of Saga & 90125Yes
might like It Bites, not the strong claim that none of those poeple
will find it anything other than nauseating!

   Do you actually think the quality of
   It Bites' albums even begins to compare to those bands?

Compares, yes.  Is as good as?  Depends.  Not as good as 90125, but
just as good as Wildest Dreams or Behaviour, perhaps.  All of my
judgements are from "The Big Lad In The Windmill", by the way.  The
guitar during the first verse of "Screaming on the Beaches" is very
Saga-esque, as is the guitar in "All in Red".

Which albums have you heard?  Perhaps their later albums were worse...

   I certainly
   don't think so. I found their music to be very cheesy, and very
   derivative without even a glimmer of originality.

Derivative of whom?

    Mind you,
   being derivative is nothing new in the "new-prog" realm, and it
   can be done well, but not in this case. There are *MANY* other
   interesting acts in Europe to check out before investigating
   It Bites.

I agree.

   BTW, what does "It Bites" mean in the European vernacular?

"It has strength".  Kestrel lager used the phrase 10 years back or so
in adverts.

It Bites is *not* one of my favourite bands.  But they are original,
competent pop-prog that *some* readers of this group might enjoy.  Are
there any It Bites appreciators reading this?

Enough said.  They don't deserve any more of my time.

Vocal there is done by Byrne, but the last phrase

Greetings once again!

      I recall listening to an interview on Rockline on a local Rock
radio station here in Allentown, and I especially remember a caller
asking if, since the band members are all re-united now, they planned
for the future writing any epic-size pieces.  He mentioned some previous
ones.  Karn Evil 9 (was SURE to receive mention) was one; he also men-
tioned Tarkus.  Now, I don't have this one, but I've looked at it at least
100 times as if ready to buy it, but doesn't this have somewhere like
around 15 songs on it??

       Then came the one mention which I wasn't familiar with at all.
He mentioned one called "Pirates".  What is it, what album did it appear
on and why haven't I seen it before????
