Hopefully, this was a one-off........

Next he will record a double lp concept album about the experience with bricks on the cover

Please Jim,


Define "Ratty Bugger" for me.................. Did you meet him and he had bad breath? Didn't comb his hair?

Sorry, I was just kidding about your name!  What does the 'sw' in swmyg0d0fmusic stand for anyway?

God, you already have some kind of a reputation around here, after 12 posts!  I think I'll change my name to hot chick or something like that!

No, I didn't mean to offend you!

No, please! Have mercy!

Great band PT, earlier stuff is more prog than the recent output. Steve Wilson is very much the star of the show. A couple of the band were once in Japan. "Stupid Dream" is I think their best album, still prog, but with some good short tracks too.

Steve Wilson has various side projects, including Noman. He also appears on the OSI album.
