Sorry I wasn't trying to be unfair, just accurate. I think you are losing sight of your own argument. You can dislike waht you like, no argument.But in this fantasy thread you say that due to your personal dislike of this album you would deprive PT fans of more music.
I hope that clears my comment up. |
And in the same way, many AC DC, Purple fans, hell even Rush fans would like to see their favourite bands carry on. Just because they don't have the 'progressive glamour' associated with Incident for godforsaken reasons does not mean their fans don't have the right to want more music from their favourite bands. I am with lazland on this, if everybody is to express their personal opinion freely, then people have to keep their personal baggage aside and not get into character assassinations.
By the way, I am one of those who would like to see both AC DC and Purple stop, Rush have still got more good material left in them, I reckon.

Interesting that you see my comment as "character assassination" as you could not be further from the truth. Being selfish doesn't have to be a bad thing. I think most people are selfish to a certain extent. |
No, I was referring to harmonium.ro and lazland's exchange and, perhaps mistakenly, took your last post to be defending the former.

Oh OK. I've had a few of these misunderstandings recently.

There are two different questions:
1. Which bands´ comeback do you wish? If you feel their music still might be significant benefit to their
fans and listeners.
2. Which bands are still playing, but their music is still the same, stealing themselves, undiscovering, etc?
Simply, better to disband.
For me:
1. The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Änglagård, Bubu, Flamengo
2. Deep Purple, AC/DC, Rolling Stones, Rush, Gong

I can understand everything in these categories except for Rush. Still going strong, still writing new music, still have excellent chops, new album coming out next year. They are definitly NOT a nostalgia act. It would be a sad day for music fans indeed if you got your way with this post.....you should take them out of this post and get your head checked..
(No offense, I know you are entitled to your opinion.)

Based on their In Concert With The Danish National Concert Orchestra album, I was under the impression that they too were only rehashing old material. But I didn't check the players on it too closely. I guess I would be curious to hear what they could potentially come up with if you'd throw Robin Trower back in the mix. I'd love to see Pentangle with Danny Thompson, Martin Renbourn and Bert Jansch together again. I'm sure there would be something there. Bert especially has proven that he still makes fresh, contemporary material.

I'd like Robert Fripp to do a rock band again, regardless whether it would be a King Crimson or not. |
Fripp/Sylvian, except this time the introspective Sylvian pieces would take precedence over the riffier Fripp works.
|
I'll take a third Fripp/Summers collaboration, thank you.
