 Topic: The Ten Commandments of Prog Rock
Posted: October 23 2004 at 00:22 |
 ^ Ha! Grait response, Faits -- couldn't have hopped for bettor!
 Thanks for the fun! There are too many "What is prog? Is Prince/Bee Gees/Menudo/Kiss/The Archies/Hole-Suking Deth Mongers prog?"-type polls and queries around here lately: "I like Yes, and Nine Inch Tool too... uh...is that okay? "
Ha! Prog is what you put on your prog compilations, kids! (Unless Maani or Dick or Easy or Bob or Elmer or Cletus or I overrule you....)
Anyway, Fates dearie,
Maany wouldn't use sham-pain -- he will give the toest with the Sacramento whine:
 Let us prei:
"Proglucky
Who art in Canada,
Hello: what be thy name?
When will you come
To New york? (as it's next to Heaven)
Give us this day
Our daily prog.
And where's my copy of "Trespass?"
For it has been missing
(Along with "The Power and the Glory")
Forever and ever -- Hey men?"
Joust kidding -- we luv ya, Maani! 
Time for another wobbly-pop... .
Fry-day Rawks! Max Webster, yeah! 
Oh! Not prog enough for ya'll? Kiss my (Steve) Lilly-white ---!

On our friendship, is this a strein?
Am I driving you insein?
Of your existance, am I the bein?
Would you like to beat me with your cein?

No to all those.... but I would like to run you over with a crein
Until nothing remeins

Until I can safely ascertein

and then I'll have a few glasses of champein
Maani will probably be giving the toast.....

Ms Fates: Mr Rideout has been issued with a restreining order -- there should be no more trouble from him.

I hadn't checked out this thread until now and nothing could have prepared me for the horror of seeing the "Love Beach" cover for the first time in 20 years!  !! It's probably the worst cover in the history of recorded music and I was decidedly underwhelmed by the music too so it's the only ELP album i actually wound up selling. Or trading or whatever I did with it,this oldtimers memory is getting hazier all the time.  My friends made mercyless fun of me for that album,probably a contributing factor in getting rid of it! Seldom has an album been screaming CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION like that one.

So, er... let me get this straight: It's illegal to inject (or "mainline") Maani's name, is it?
Can we "inject" his name into a conversation?
(Frankly, I condemn all recreational intravenous drug use!)

"Odessa" was about as close as they got. It was pretty good though.
