Hi There!!!
Somebody wondered who will be in the band when RUPHUS has their concert in Oslo at the Rockefeller 12/2-10. Well, I will be there, Asle Nilsen, Kjell Larsen, Björn and Kjell Rönninge, and of course Gudny. We will also be gifted with Haakon Graf, may be Sylvi Lillegaard and Tor Bendiksen. This is what I know for time being. Regards Rune Sundby

Well, being informed, is that good for an answer? For example, Wikipedia, the largest and most important colaborative internet website, does not claim copyright. The content is not licensed with copyright but with the Creative Commons license.


Yes - Wikipedia defines an exception here from the common law which allows the use of articles for personal or business goals ...


It's not an "exception" any more; the CC license is now a legal instrument just as valid as the Copyright. It's use has exploded especially for music and online content. It has also been already with success in several legal trials.

[Even I have licensed my blog under a CC license Tongue]

A number of things cause me anxiety, but posting on internet forums is not one of them.

I dont post as much as I used to. Maybe I've said everything that I'm going to say about bands I like, and I've long since given up commenting on bands that I dont like, as there seems little point to that. I dont have the time or inclination to write blogs, attempting the disect the pysychology of prog rock. It's only music. F***ing good music, but just music nonetheless.

I have vague memories of this forum being more of a humouress place when I first joined, but maybe I'm imagining that..    ]]> Sat, 07 Nov 2009 08:48:29 +0000 http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=62647&PID=3438614#3438614 Prog Polls : 2nd best prog album of all time http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=62590&PID=3438613#3438613 Author: BaldFriede
Subject: 2nd best prog album of all time
Posted: November 07 2009 at 08:43

None of the above, just as "CttE" is not the best prog album ever, it is not even the best album of Yes; "Relayer" is a lot better, in my opinion. There are a lot of better albums which just happen not to be that well-known, but also a few well-known ones. I admit that for the throne it has to be a well-known one though.
The best album Genesis ever made is in my opinion the Lamb, so of course "SEbtP" can't be it. Pink Floyd did not make any album that in my opinion makes it to the very top.
Of King Crimson my favourite album is "Lizard", though it is in many ways untypical for them.
There are probably at least fifty albums I would put above the albums listed here, even considering the rule of sticking only to well-known ones. Putting aside that rule there are at least a hundred one.

A few well-known ones which I consider to be better than that list, including your number one "CttE":
"Pawn Hearts" by Van der Graaf Generator.
"Octopus" by Gentle Giant.
"Tanz der Lemminge" by Amon Düül 2.
"Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandöh" by Magma..
"Tago Mago" by Can.
"Recycled" by Nektar.
"You" by Gong.
"Warrior On the Edge of Time" by Hawkwind.
"Voyage of the Acolyte" by Steve Hackett.

A few lesser known albums which I consider to be better than the list:
"In den Gärten Pharaohs" by Popol Vuh.
"Jenseits" by Ash Ra Tempel.
"Clearlight  Symphony" by Clearlight.
"Fish Rising" by Steve Hillage.
"Känguru" by Guru Guru.
"Red Queen to Gryphon Three" by Gryphon.

A few very little known albums which I consider to be better than your choices:
"Fairy Tales" by Mother Gong.
"Xitintoday" by Nik Turner.
"The Fall of the House of Usher" (1999 version) by Peter Hammill.
"Photo Musik" by Christian Boulé.

That's just a small excerpt and just counting studio albums; if we come to live albums there are a lot more which I consider to be better.

I feel far more comfortable here than other prog sites. Too often elsewhere I can give an opinion and get a response that makes it clear that not only am I wrong for thinking so but insulted at the same time for being a dullard. The vast majority of time here, responses are helpful, polite,knowledgeable and sometimes funny. And at times we get into some very intelligent discussions. These sort of discussion groups  are made of all sorts of ages and levels of knowledge - and we mustn't  forget are there are folks here new to prog and wanting to learn. So I try to inform when I have knowledge to offer and try to avoid being superior - most  times I hope I succeed. ]]> Sat, 07 Nov 2009 08:43:16 +0000 http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=62647&PID=3438612#3438612 Prog Polls : Porcupine Tree "incredibly hard to categorize"? http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=62638&PID=3438611#3438611 Author: The Truth

Early on in their career, I found them very hard to categorize. However, now their alt-prog... which I guess is slang for crossover if we're not making a new genre]]> Sat, 07 Nov 2009 08:43:03 +0000 http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=62638&PID=3438611#3438611
