Ditto - my youth. Sad news about Tony Meehan's death on Monday. What was the psychedelic album, Graham Nash pressurised the rest of the Hollies into making, and has it moments, which lead to Nash joining CSN when their follow up was the relatively staid Hollies Sing Bob Dylan..........................?

I don't have the album as yet, but I know that album is 'Butterfly', which is revered as a cult classic in some magazines I've read.

Right - I have a stereo copy probably not played in over decade - one problem, it appears I over- used the propriety silicone-based anti-static liquid (very unwisely) recommended in those days. Back in the 70's, playing vinyl meant the styllus ploughed out dried anti-stat wax, and the sound would get increasingly muffled in minutes with wax build-up. And it is a bitch cleaning silicone off anything. Maybe it is worth copying onto CD following a hi-fi digital clean up - let you know if it works..................

Actually you hear that one very often and generally about twenty times after a post stating that ELP sucks
But I will certainly never say this as I explained myself on the subject many times!!

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

In that little collage posted by Batman, Phil bears one hell of a resemblance to John Locke in "Lost".

Gee if Turn It On Again is your favorite Genesis song, then I'm convinced now that you really are the REAL Lindsay Lohan! Do you know who Peter Gabriel is?

It's so wonderful that all of us agree on which bands deserve to be here!

Replace the "is the" with "are" and you'll be correct BitchBrew.
Ah, good ol' George Formby, I know he didn't write any of his own
tunes, but I just think it's some weird nostalgia thing with me.
Some of if stuff was amusing..., just listen to Hindoo Man and you'll
realise what I mean.
Thanks for the photo NutterAlert!
Has anyone heard the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain? Their CD
is very odd and worth a spin or two. They'll be touring at some
point in the future too.
They could do a Ukelele Prog covers album..., but I think that's a bad idea come to think of it.

Any opportunity of posting a picture of the ukulele maestro shown be taken:

"word up" is something I havn't heard here yet.
Or, "I like britpop". But that actually applies to me

How 'bout this:
Prog Rock is tasteless, talentless spew.

I like most of the above acts listed above- they all deserve far more attention that they are likely to get...
Outside of prog, I have a perhaps surprising like of 60s pop/rock such as The Hollies, The Shadows and The Searchers...
