An absolute font of information on all that youth culture that I'm absolutely fascinated by is written off by me dad. Said everyone to a man was a total knob. My mum was a skinhead.

Trends and what I would've been, was and have become.
50s - Rocker
60s - Mod (This is the one I'd have loved to have lived most)
70s - Punk
80s - Mopey bedside poet goth type but not full on winkle picker wankyness.
90s - What I was, grunged up to the eyeballs.
00s - digital generation music accumulator nerd.
10s - Even more so, bitter nostalgic mid thirties music absorber/ a suit.

If this album was immaculate it wouldn't be the beast that it is. The 'filler' is essential.

Thanks guys for your comments about the album and about my review. As you are many, I can't thank all of you individually.So, many thanks for all of you.
About the bands that the guys like me listened in those days, it depends of our individual tastes and friends. As I started listening to music in 1974, the bands that I listened more are the bands and artists that began in the end of the 60's and the beginning of the 70's, like The Doors, The Velvet Underground, David Bowie, Camel, Deep Purple, Eagles, ELP, Fleetwood Mac, Genesis, Gentle Giant, Jethro Tull, Kansas, King Crimson, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Queen, Roxy Music, Santana, Bruce Springsteen, Supertramp, Tangerine Dream, Renaissance, Curved Air, Uriah Heep, Van Der Graaf Generator, The Who, Yes, Neil Young, Area, Premiata Forneria Marconi, Barclay James Harvest, Focus, Vangelis, Strawbs, Triumvirat, The Beatles, Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, John Cale, Caravan, Hawkwind, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Manfred Mann's Earth Band, The Moody Blues, Nice, Mike Oldfield, Alan Parsons Project, Pavlov's Dog, The Pretty Things, Procol Harum, Rainbow, Klaus Schulze, Kraftwerk, Sparks, Starcastle, Styx, Steve Winwood, only to mention the most known and some of the most important too.
So, as you can see my musical education was very varied and vast. And I'm sure that all your dads have a very own and certainly different experience that I have had.
Once more thanks for you share your point of views about you musical experience. If you want you can talk about the huge number of the bands names mentioned by me.

My list of bands is almost the same as you. Probably the only difference would be the music I found on Sputnik. I name you the essentials I found on here; Stoner rock such as Clutch, Lo-Pan, Dozer, Solace, Brain Police, Kyuss and Queens of the Stone Age etc. I've found couples of indie rock bands too such as Built to Spill, The Flaming Lips, The Decemberists, Elliott Smith, Silversun Pickups, dredg, Mew, The National, and some more heavy metal such as Karnivool, Katatonia, The Ocean, Opeth, Edge of Sanity, Cynic, Danzig, Fates Warning, Symphony X, Agalloch, The Gathering...etc, so be prepared yourself to discover some new music on here with time.

Probably, I didn't explained myself very well. The bands I put here are the bands from what I had listened some of their albums in 1974 and 1975 and are only some of them that most influenced my musical tastes. So, they're only bands from the 70's and the albums I mentioned are only their albums until 1975. I didn't mentioned many other bands because they were less influential to me, for instance, like Brand X or even Rush, a band that I didn't heard about in those years.
So, to that list, it lacks to it so many more prog bands. The neo-prog bands of the 80's like Marillion, IQ, Pendragon, Galahad, Arena, etc., and the prog bands from the 90's like Spock's Beard, Flower Kings, Dream Theater, Fates Warning, Symphony X, Transatlantic, Ayreon, Opeth, Pain Of Salvation, Porcupine Tree, Anekdoten, Riverside, Mostly Autumn, etc.
And out of the prog world, there are also many bands that I like very much after the 70's. Bands that appeared linked with the new-wave movement like R.E.M., Simple Minds, The Stranglers, Television, Ultravox!, U2, Talking Heads, Japan, etc.
So, as you can see I've a very diverse taste. And yes, of course we have many common points in our musical taste. And it also has a lot to do with our similar age level.
Thanks for your comments, Jethro.
Cheers.

True, I misunderstood you, e21. My bad, I haven't read your comment properly. I thought you were talking about your fave band's list found in the profile. Yes indeed, I grew up with most of the bands you named in this thread. I'm a prog son as well. And I'm not surprised that you could expand your list still more.
And I guess your next reviews are gonna include a lot of these ;)
