EBIW may have been the inspiration, but he’s pretty sure he’s not listened to any of these albums☺️

Now, where’s that series of Essex Prog polls?…..

😂


Actually the above is not true - I have the Kompendium album and I’m not gonna lie, it’s pretty tidy, is it butt?!!!😉🫢

went with East of Eden. It's a summer album (but I love it regardless of season).

Those are my two favourites in the list and I chose East of Eden too. Mercator Projected is one of my very favourite albums of not just 1969, but of the 60s generally.

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

Hi,

Some love for MAN ... this is one band I have always loved dearly, and that first album is fun, but I'm not sure it is indicative of their "Welsh" roots, like the following albums of theirs ... I saw them and they were special, and I have even read Deke's book and reviewed it.

Sadly, the book (Man on the Road to Nowhere) is very sad, but it goes to the very end of things. My favorite piece of theirs? "Never Say Nups to Nepalese" and "C'mon" (Back To the Future live version with the choir).

Great stuff. There's also one other album doing Quicksilver's Mona ... Deke says of his special guest "... he don't know the words, and neither do we!" ... and they just rip that thing!

Almost doesn't fit as "Welsh" at all since their main inspiration was Quicksilver Messenger Service, and John Cipollina even played with them a few times.

Neutrons is a band related to Man ... and both of their albums ae really good. Black Hole Star, though is very special for its wonderful vocals. Another band also related to them is Help Yourself, which, sadly, is not represented in Paul's list!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!
