I think you could probably just ask for a title of any fairly popular
cd you're looking for and they're likely to have it at a decent price.
Then you can get the free catalog and also see if it's realy a decent
deal for you with international shipping rates. 

>Anyway, stupid policy, but can anyone tell me whether the catalog is worth

If you can call and order something you want without it I don't think it's
worth it. I really don't know if they require you know a catalog number
to place an order - I tried calling but they are closed right now. 

I think they charge $5 for the catalog to be sent overseas, and they may
send a different catalog (different rates and/or selections?) and I think 
their overseas rates are more expensive than, for example, Wayside. But I 
think that for folks in other parts of the world they probably still offer
a decent selection at fairly competetive rates - the problem is that import
duties and such might be charged too.

Maybe.  He has always had an affinity for quasi-offplanet and pseudo-ancient

They were mentioned in the JT fanzine "A New Day" with very strong

This is what I've also heard - Theme One was supposedly originally done
as a whimsical interlude during recording sessions and was thrown on the
US release but never on the UK version. They also did Theme One as part of 
their live set - I've seen a Belgian TV spot that has that song and a couple 
of others performed.

Was Least We Can Do... produced by Martin? I think that they did it in the 
studio partly as a joke on him and then decided to record it. Their performing 
a BBC theme on Belgian tv was perhaps a playful moment too.

Two weeks ago I posted << a simple question >>. 
I have read the "replies" and I think I was misunderstood.
All the answers go like: " I think * will pass the time test " or
the answer is left open to the subjectivity of the concept of 
"TASTE". But just a few of them justify these feelings with any
thing more than personal likes/dislikes. (If I missed some, please
let me know) 

I wanted (maybe I was not too clear) to discuss about 
the reasons that make a single song (or a piece, or a theme, as 
you prefer) endure. i.e. I want to talk about the properties 
that musical art has to have to survive to the fashion oscillations
(if there exist any).

The question is no so simple (as someone noted), and I think is really
tricky. I promise to post my own opinion, but I think it will be 
of no profit now.

Well, it depends. If record stores near you don't stock a lot of titles you 
want, it's worth ordering. However, if you have a Tower Records (or 
similarly stocked store) within a few miles, don't bother. The prices are 
only slightly lower, and postage takes care of that!

Yeah, but good luck finding a copy, especially on CD.  _See You Later_
also features some of the music from the movie "Bladerunner",

*puzzled look*  I'd have thought that citing GG or the Dregs as holding
your interest would automatically translate into an affinity for HtM.
If anything, I would even say that HtM are a bit less into the Let's Get
Difficult approch than the other two bands.  Re production, you did note
that Ken Scott (producer of _What If_) also did _Crafty Hands_, right?

I wonder if hearing it in the context of the the compilation CD could
affect your overall response to the music, Dan.

Although now that I think of it, I can remember several other people with 
similar musical tastes who I turned on to HtM (_Crafty Hands_) who were not 
overly impressed by them.  Hmm.

Has anyone else heard of a group called "Crack the Sky"? I never see
them posted in any of the progressive group lists that periodically
appear in this newsgroup. As a matter of fact, I had only heard one
song from them in the infamous Stone Trek program on KOME, then saw
one of their CDs in a cut out bin for $5, so decided to give it a try.
This was "From the Greenhouse", and in my opinion is a great album.
It is available from Noteworthy. The music is similar to Pink Floyd,
with lots of Gilmour style guitar.

Now the questions: After I got this CD, I decided to try out the other
CDs they have out. I got "Raw", and found it to be a piece of crap.
I was extremely disappointed with it, and now I'm not sure if I should
even try the other CD listed in Noteworthy: "Dog City". Does anybody
have more information on these guys? Do they have any more CDs? Any
comments on "Dog City"? Thanks,

Jorge

CU NIMB probably means cumulonimbus - a type of cloud formation.  It's
being
pronounced the way you'd expect (Queue Nimb).  I don't know what IMC means,
but
it's spelled out letter by letter.

PALMER?! Well, this certainly throws my latest info on the band out the
window. Anyhow, the deal with Howe is as follows: he is in the US right
now, fininshing the mixing work on his new solo album. He will continue
to tour with Asia when he has the time, and intends to be *the* guitarist
on the next album. He is no longer associated with the current edition of
Yes, and has been quoted directly in NFTE as saying that he finds it
very unlikely that he will tour (or anything else) with Yes.

But not nearly as bad as the album Wetton did with Phil Manzanera in 
1987, imaginitively titled _Wetton/Manzanera_.  Not even good by
pop standards, IMO.  Alan White plays drums on that one, and Kevin
Godley contributes some backing vocals.
 
> I have the John Wetton Compilation (_Kings_Road_), on that was a track called

It's on the only album by the band Jack-knife, called _I Wish You Would_.
The album was released in 1979 and the band featured Wetton on bass and
vocals and Curt Cress (ex-Saga, I think) on drums, plus 2 others.  I
think the Richard Palmer-James made some contributions as well (maybe
on guitar?).  This album is far better than the other Wetton material
mentioned above, but it isn't very progressive.  Mostly covers of old
stuff.  In addition to "Eyesight to the Blind" (remember Clapton per-
forming this in _Tommy_?), there's "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl",
"Dimples", "Can't Tell a Book by the Cover", and the title track.
There's 2 or 3 original tunes, the best being one called "Adoration",
written by Wetton and Palmer-James.  I found my copy in an LP bargain
bin for US$3, and it's worth at least that much, IMHO.

Hello all!

I recently (finally) got FMO on CD, and I've been trying to
decode the lyrics at the beginning of Orabidoo.  Someone has
posted their interpretation on cs.uwp.edu, but it is incomplete,
and I'm not sure I agree with all of it.  Anyway, has anyone
else got any ideas on this track?

A second question for that album is, in the song Five Miles Out,
the lyrics give "IMC. CU. NIMB. Icing".  How is that actually
sung?  Is it "EYE-EM-CEE  CEE-YOU  EN-EYE-EM-BEE" or what?
I can't catch what Mike says, but it seems to be faster than
the above form.

Any help is appreciated.
