I really like when KC are in folk/prog ballad mode more then crazy mode, they wrote and play just wonderfull flute based, eargasmic prog ballads, like I Talk to the Wind, C&C, Book of Saturday, Falle Angel, Starless which both have the dynamic jazz i love and the prog balladesque
 
In the Wake of Poseidon is probably where the beutifull and chaotic meats most profoundly
 
but Pictures of the City is just perfect from start to finnish
 
sorry Fripper

I have a naive question to ask and then a naive comment to make about two different things.

I have to put by plate in the sink first though and out the kettle on.

I also have a question which is actualy not so hard to make
 
I just wonder if the similaritys between In Court and In Wake, is that they are two sides of a concept or story or that it is a concept covering two album, first the album covers are similar, and the themes are similar and the, greek mythology and such, the Crimson King is probably Zeus or even Kronos, (or maybe Hades), and that they are related, I have read it somewhere, I don't think im raving ether

Nope, I read somewhere that they got their name as a slang term for the devil.

I think art should belong to everyone, especially the really expensive art I can't afford, including architecture and some of the design furniture.

That's probably true, since prog HAS to be overcomplicated.

I think they made the second album as a better version of the first.

My question is probably silly but anyhow...

If there is indeed a nuclear meltdown in one or two of the reactors in Fukushima, then surely it could potentially have effects outside of Japan?  I mean, if someone gets affected by but does not realise and they then travel the world, could this not therefore be quite concerning?

Also, much like the two Atomic Bombs and Chernobyl, wouldn't the atmosphere also be affected and also potentially affect such things as Climate Change?

My other comment/question is:

Do you think modern/new and intelligent/techinical music is often deemed as terrible by many people because in many cases, familiarity breeds contempt?  Most elements of music have been covered now, so most new music is recycling the old.  I know a lot of people enjoy new music just as much as old music but in some genres, like Neo-prog, symphonic-prog, post-rock and some others, a lot of the music sounds very similar to each other and those genres then often become somewhat of a joke in some circles.

Is it more the fault of the potential listener in not liking familiarity or is it something else?
