Lowell George was the man. I have a live DVD from a Germany show that's fantastic. It's always a popular pick for post-bar viewing.

I wouldn't call you "old", I'd just say you have some good taste. Fragile is a great call. Thanks for the reminder of that one. I need to get that record. Old? If you look through the picks here you'll see a lot of albums older than these. I think you're in good company briandmyers :-)

Thanks. It was a little cheesy, but I love how, when you're listening to the album, the song "We have Heaven" chops off abruptly, with a door slam and footsteps walking away; then, at the end of "Heart of the Sunrise", you hear the door open again, and "We have Heaven" finishes.
Also, Rick Wakeman is a keyboard god.

If there is something even greater than god, then Rick Wakeman is a keyboard that. Here is a photo of the new green's keyboard/trombonists recording studio: Sweet . Not pictured are his Rhodes and the Theremin. His basement is like a playground for a musician, so much fun. I'm a huge fan of synth.

It's maybe not to everyone's tastes, but as a youngster, I loved Wakeman's "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" and "Six Wives of Henry the 8th". Brilliant stuff.

I'll check it out, thanks for the Wakeman reminiscence he really is a bad ass.
