| Squawk was agreat record,so was In for the Kill and Never turn your back on a friend.Most of their pre 80's material was Ok.Then they had a few line-up changes and they kinda lost it,I guess. |

One of those rare 70's hard rock/power trios I could never get into!!! Not for lack of trying.
Not prog, BTW , just in case this was the goal of this thread!! ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

 .I think they, like so many other heavy bands from the 70's had some prog tendencies ie;use of the mellotron,long tracks,concept albums,fantasy lirycs,R.Dean artwork ect...true they were primarly a hard-rock band,but I think lots of proggers can identify with them.Anyway I just dig them for what they are,and I don't really care about waht is prog or not.Just great music.

I like "Bandolier". I met the bassist/singer Burke Shelley once, he lives in Cardiff. He was playing in a pub with "Titch" who recently died in a fire! ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Snow_Dog" rel="nofollow">

First five are good, but I got insane and collected them as vinyls. Now I have all major releases and few single/EP's. Silly lyrics.
