Hey, it's no problem. Thanks. My tastes are currently a bit more weird than yours though (but that did take 3-4 years to happen in many aspects).

| Well, I don't know about that. You see, upon listening to Henry Cow today (and LOVING jazz music and playing it for years), I found a connection. I still don't get the "Rock in Opposition" label, but I don't really care about it. It's good music. That's what I want.

I'm glad you liked it! All RIO bands do sound different though and it's more of an organizational aspect than a straight-up musical one. If you want more info along those lines, this should help: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_in_Opposition

| I will do so. I think I'll add Henry Cow to my wish list. Could I get you to grab Somewhere to Elsewhere by Kansas some time? It's their best album, and I think it recaptures the magic of the old albums with a more modern sound.

Awesome. I actually have that album, and I really need to dig it out and give it another spin. I was actually thinking about doing that soon.

| Perfect. I promise that by next summer, I'll have one or two Henry Cow albums.
Anyway, on Somewhere to Elsewhere, my picks are "Icarus II," "Myriad," and "Distant Vision." "Myriad" should blow you away, though.

Sounds like a plan! Henry Cow albums are growers too. Most albums do get better with every listen, but HC reveals itself that way especially so. It's amazing. I remember Icarus II being good... but to be honest, I haven't heard that album in way too long. I might actually bring that out tomorrow.

I attended the first tour when Kansas played that song. They had sold out of the CDs, as I recall, but man..."Icarus II" blew me away.
I like that we can get into each others' prog!

Haha, yeah. It's always interesting to see how your tastes compare and contrast with different people.

Awesome. I did about 3-5 hours of composing/listening to myself earlier today, so I've had my fill.
