Pawn hearts, Godbluff, Still life are all in my top 20 (Pawn Hearts at No1, a
spot shared with the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway). H to He is not quite as 'tortured' as these three, but the album kicks ass anyway, 'House with No Door' is a beautiful song and 'Pioneers' and 'Emperor' unmistakably possess that unique, otherwordly VDGG quality... Anyone heard the VDGG reissues with all the bonus tracks? Apparently, even more recordings from the Pawn Hearts sessions exist, but they have been lost... (As I type this I am fondling my tickets to the July VDGG show in Amsterdam!!!) |

VDGG will play in Greece on the 21st of July... so it is a good chance
to finally watch them live! i only wish that the club is not going to
be empty like it was when 21st century schizoid band played

That's a bad album.ihad it, when i was younger i tried to appreciate it many times,it's just too much for nothing.in the end i gave it to my little niece to sold it to take Kylie's Minogue best!don't listen to every crap some "enlighted" guy makes, just because it's progressive...(sorry if i have offended someone, as unkle Frank would say)

Maddog No need to apologise for having insulted anyone. Anyone who types such nonsense about VDGG can not be taken seriously ;)

'H To He' is, to me, VDGG's joint best alongside 'Pawn Hearts'- both are amongst the darkest, bleakest yet most wonderful prog albums ever made. However, all VDGG albums are extremely great and rewarding.
