You are crazy Agi I cannot for the life of me choose between any of these. Gong and Magma are among my absolute favourite progressive acts - and Parliament/Funkadelic were one of my early musical loves. No vote. All you get is this pear

I have loved all of them, but Magma. This is what turned me onto Magma originally, by the way. [tube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOgJOopN-aY[/tube] |

My vote goes to the quirky Gong. Magma scares me sometimes.

Guess I'm too white for
Parliament/Funkadelic, Magma's moderate doses of funk suits me better. Gong's great, but not Magma-great. -------------

It's about time Prog Funk became a recognised subgenre. There's already Jazz Rock and Funk Rock and Jazz Funk and Psychedelic Soul and so froth - time for Prog Funk, methinks. ------------- http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=47963" rel="nofollow - a band I play in |

Since we're talking about pears, then I would strongly recommend anybody into Gong getting a juicy one along with the fantastic Peel Sessions. To my knowledge the only release to feature Kevin Ayers on board. I just reviewed it, and had completely forgotten how good of a record it is.
And then together with a pear..... don't even get me started! ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” - Douglas Adams |
