I can't believe we don't have one of these! What with the "song" and "album" threads...or, do we?
Anyway, I'VE got High Hopes by the Floydsters stuck in MY head. ------------- "There seem to be quite a large percentage of young American boys out there tonight. A long way from home, eh? Well so are we... Gotta stick together." -I. Anderson |

This is interesting. Prog and fusion by nature are such complex, intellectual musics that sometimes I'll have a riff or melody in my head and I can't immediately recall what artist it's from. It can all run together into one marvelous river of prog and I can't isolate a particular phrase or song.

Right now I've got a organ/keyboardsolo from Wobblers 'Hinterland' stuck firmly on repeat. Wich, thank Bob, isn't too bad. I'd look insane if i ever tried to hum it though :D
Also, I have part of a sentence from Samla Mammas Mannas 'Circus Apparatha': "och lilla tjocka Lisa, MED BEN OCH ARMAR BORTA!" - (trans: 'and little fat Lisa - with legs and arms gone!') |

I have this really dissonant, disjointed guitar riff stuck in my head. I have a gut feeling that it's either Faust or from an improvised Kraftwerk (with Rother and Dinger!) boot I have, but I can't quite pin it down. -------------   |

| Believe it or not, Morgan's 'The Sleeper Wakes', an old organ prog band from 1973. I wanted to write it up so I gave it a whirl. Not a great one but much more interesting than similar contemporaries (like John William's Tempest, or Greenslade). |

Hah, my thoughts exactly Anyway, what's in my head, let's see. 6 albums froma Finnish girl rock/pop group TikTak. I've taken the challenge of listening to all their albums every day of the month. That's about 73 songs per day and has lasted 2/5 weeks already. yeah, it's messing up my head and I can't consentrate, and they're playing in my head simultaneously. Right now I'm listening to them again. |
