 | Inoculaeted Lemme know if you ever do that prog tourney again. I got a champion for the next one.
|
 | e210013 No problem. I'm not worried. Lol. Till next year.
|
| e210013 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year my friend. Cheers.
|
 | Mythodea Oh, okay, I must have missed it in the morning when I logged in to vote! Thanks, I didn't expect people to love Tournas so much, imagine I had kept him in mind for two years before submitting him, wondering if he would be a good fit for the tournament!
|
| Mythodea Hello Jethro! Just saw your message, don't know when you sent it. I've already voted, though ;)
|
 | SharkTooth sorry I had work stuff so I couldn't participate this time. sux but maybe next year
|
 | tmthycnnlly Yes I did give each of them a full go don't worry
|
 | porcupinetheater eek! I'm so sorry Jethro, had to go out of town unexpectedly this week and the prog round kind of slipped out of sight out of mind. Will listen to 'em both today, although the outcome looks rather dyed in the wool already!
|
 | wham49 i told you I wanted out after the mess that is this tourney, but you keep telling me to vote so I doI can tell you which one I like in one listen becasue if something is not my style I know it, plus again you told me to hurry up and choose a record, then somepone after me you told to take their time, then you told me you dont like my album and to change it, then I want to change it and you say no, so whatever man, if you dont like my vote than dont count it, or quit sending me reminders to vote
|
 | zakalwe Yeah there is a fair bit of supertramp in there come to think of it. Glad you enjoy it mate.
|
| e210013 I don't know my friend. I know what you mean. I already listened to the album twice. I think you can check the general opinion of the contentors. If no one put any problem, I don't see why not. For me, no problem.
|
| Mythodea Thanks Jethro, I always wait till the last day of any round till I cast my vote ;) I'll be there tomorrow with my choice!
|
| wham49 you told me to do that after the tournament already started, it is on spotify I found, what ever you want to do, this is way too much work
|
| wham49 it is fragmented on youtube, man this is ridiculous
|
| wham49 Ok I finally had time to look at changing my album like you wanted me too, and since I am not up let I am still going to change it.I will go with Frank Zappa/Imaginary Diseases. I will write it up later today or tomorrow morning
|
| e210013 No problem and with no hard feelings. As you said, that's life. But, a suggestion. You must avoid, when it's possible, matching up candidates of the 70's against the others. That situation is unfair to the 70's due to the less careful production of those album. For instance, "Buon Vecchio Charlie" is a great album, but it has a weak amateur production. Some participants have that in consideration. I remember when I brought the album of Quarteto 1111, some said it needed a better production.
|
| Mythodea I'm sorry Jetrho, I just now read the messages you sent me yesterday, but I'm glad to see it worked! Excellent! I guess my album is up in the next round, so yay!
|
| Mythodea I have tried editing the album title, by adding the english translation. Maybe that's going to help. If not, we'll figure it out! Thanks a bunch for dealing with my s***ty greek titles, tho, haha
|
| e210013 I don't know. It's not a bad idea but I'm afraid that it can be seen as a hard campaign to the album, a kind to forcing to vote on it. I'm afraid that it can be harmful. Besides, it wouldn't be fair to porc. I made my annoucement on the round 2 and I think it's enough. Anyway thanks for the tip my friend. The album must be valued by itself. Besides it's only a matter of taste. We both know the album is great. If I loose, it's life. And sincerelly, I think the album of porc is great too.
|
| e210013 It was the minimum to do, explaining my attitude with someone that has all the work organizing a nice event like this. Cheers buddy.
|
| e210013 I know that my friend. But I need to apologize because it was very hard for me to choose one of the albums and for the first time I don't voted. I was a bit coward in waiting to the other votes to decide this round. I hope you aren't upset with me due to my decision. It was nothing against you. I think you made an amazing choice with your album, as always. Your album is a natural possible winner. The best wishes to to you in this tourney.
|
 | kalkwiese Thanks, Jethro. :) I was very happy when I found them
|
| Mythodea Hi there Jethro! Perhaps you can copy and paste it to make it appear on the choices list?
|
 | Parallels alas i was late to the entry but fashionably on time for the enjoyment :)
|
| wham49 just pull me I am busy anyway
|
| wham49 we see things differently, I will look for a new one
|
| e210013 You're welcome buddy. It was nothing special. I only said the true.
|
 | manosg Hey Jethro, thanks for the invite my friend but I'm afraid that I don't have the time to participate. I'll be happy to feature your list though, in case the added exposure brings more participants.
|
 | TheNotrap Sorry, I didn't see your message until now. I'll pass this time mate, but will take a peek at the list ;)
|
 | Koris Hey Jethro, hope all is well with you. I'll definitely contribute... just need to get off work first, as I need to add the band in question to the Sputnik database. That's how you know they'll be underrated on here, lol
|
 | Zig see if this one is more simple for you. no need for sign up. results can be secret and send by e-mail.
|
| Zig https://www.supersurvey.com/?=PMToolsSSBDo More with a Survey#QP-2897212xea7D66a5-128
|
 | Voivod Thank you for the invitation, but my current real life schedule is beyond hectic.
|
| wham49 Still want me to cut it, I saw you posted it I can get rid of more, I?ll edit the post, also any place you can think of getting a link the only place I found it is YouTube and it?s not the best cause it is pieced together
|
| wham49 ok thats fine, I'll write something up this after noon at some point, thanks if you havent checked the SM album, totally preprog classic, kinda like early Ffloyd
|
| wham49 Ok I have 2, dies either Soft Machine/The Soft Machine or Spirit/ Son of Spirit qualify
|
| zakalwe Haha. I was rushed but I am happy with it
|
| zakalwe Top man I am in I just need to whittle down my choices.
|
 | bnelso55 Thanks for letting me know! I'll check it out now.
|
| wham49 super busy give me till the end of tonight please and I will have it, been coaching and having late nights, will get it to you
|
| Zig something like this: https://forms.gle/NoVnLQLfSqzSy1ML6
|
| Zig hey Jethro. hope you're doing well. want to share an idea that i had to help the prog tourney to get more exciting. I thought about a secret vote, this way no one will know the winner until the results are shared. think the tourney will get better this way, even when a record is swept 10-0. what do you think? I can help you with a Google Forms or something like that. cheers!
|
 | Scheumke Hi friend! Was wondering if we're gonna do another prog tournament this year. Loved last year's edition and can't believe it's been a year already! Cheers!
|
| Voivod Salut Jethro, tu dois ecouter cet album, ca c'est si tu n'as pas deja fait: https://vesilinja.bandcamp.com/album/myrskyn-keskell
|
 | OmairSh Hello old friend! Hope you?ve been doing well :-), it?s been a while. I thought why not bring back an old tradition of listening to Pakistani songs like we did back in the day :-D. You?ll enjoy the first 3 songs for sure https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=201548
|
| e210013 I finished to put my comment about your list right now. Tell me what you think. By the way. I published another review today. It's about the debut album of The Flock. I don't know if you checked the album already but I know that you already checked their second one, Dinosaur Swamps, an album that was chosen for one of the tournaments of Friday.
|
 | Divaman Hi Jethro. Thanks for the list. In hospital for last two weeks. Not sure when I?ll be back .
|
| e210013 Ok my friend. I'm going to be in vacations in the next two weeks. Soon I return I'll take a look to it. I promise and we'll talk about it then. And I'll publish a review too.
|
| Divaman Not so great, Jethro. Thank you for asking, though.
|
| Divaman Yeah, you know how I am. I think people get too crazy with both 5's and 1's on this site. Most of my ratings fit in between 2 and 4. But the mods consider troll ratings to be when someone goes to a band's page and just gives 1's to their entire discography. In this case, the band only has one album. So I guess the guy just really hated that album.
|
| Divaman Basically, Jom doesn't feel like this is a troll rating. He says this guy has a legit history - he thinks he just really doesn't like that particular album. (He also made a suggestion about how you should be able to post to the Community side of the site.)
|
| Divaman Hi Jethro. Did you see Jom's answer to you?
|
| Mythodea ?h, yes, I do enjoy their first two albums, and I thought they had been on a hiatus! You're the man, thanks Jethro ;)
|
 | TheIntruder Absolutely. Right away. Now I am ready to do so.
|
| e210013 I only said what I think and true. Thanks and congrats for the organization of it.
|
| Divaman Absolutely. For right now, at least, both of the albums I voted for this round are behind in the voting. The Diva curse continues.
|
| e210013 Thanks my friend. It was nothing. I Only intended to help you a bit, especially to the high difference between our time zones. Good rest of tourney also, especially to you and your knight.
|
 | bgillesp Lol, I?m glad you didn?t end up hating it
|
| SharkTooth Don't worry about me holding grudges, this is your first tourney, and you're doing a wonderful job as is
|
| SharkTooth I don't blame you haha. It sucks that you called it before me, but it's just a tourney. I'm just happy to participate
|
| bnelso55 Thanks for the reminder. Sorry about that.
|
| TheIntruder Ok Jethro. I intend to do that. I almost finished to listening all the 10 albums.
|
| wham49 i'll get it to you by the end of the day
|
| wham49 do you mean for M(. I thought it was over. I'll be able to vote at the end of the week for 10
|
| Divaman It definitely will. It will give me the opportunity to relisten to everything this week so I know who my top 4 are and in what order before I set sail. Thanks Jethro.
|
| Divaman Are you intending to run round 2 the way Friday did last year by having each for us rank our Top 4 of the 10 winners from Round 1? I'm asking because I'll be heading out to sea again on May 4, and once again I'm not sure how good the internet will be on the ship.
|
| TheIntruder Ok Jethro. I am listening the winner albums of the tournament so far . I intend participate in the last phase. Listen 10 is easier than 20. No problem. I'm on both. I will wait but I can vote latter after listen them two times.
|
 | Donchivo I am not dissappointed at all, I guess the match up will be interesting and a bit wild, one presumably very weird album against one album that is more proto prog than actual prog, so both are different and both are heavy! Thanks a lot for the great job that you are doing with organizing this whole tournament!!
|
| Divaman Which one Jethro? The pity-vote one was for Scheumke. The "I don't count" one was a joke for you because you listed my name as voting for Flaming Row but forgot to change the zero to a one.
|
| TheIntruder Sorry man. Again I only saw your comment on my shoutbox now. As I told you I've been very busy. Work has been hell. I hope to can participate at least in some rounds in the end of April. Less albums, more time. It would be nice to unwind a bit. Cheers.
|
| Divaman It's longislandmusicguy.blogspot.com
|
 | Titan ahhhh, you mean match 4......yes, i will listen to them, but will need a few days.....i have young kids bro and it's not easy finding the time
|
| Titan I already listened to them jethro!
|
 | TwigTW Sorry Jethro, I lost track of time. Voting now...
|
| TheNotrap Cheers buddy, I've been busy around two albums that I will be reviewing, however if you can't find anyone to break the tie over the weekend come back to me.
|
| bgillesp Hey, do you have the next matchup decided yet? Gonna be making a long drive this evening and would love to jam the next ones on the way if you wouldn't mind.
|
| SharkTooth Can't say I blame you, you're at least doing a better job than I did with my doom tourney way back when.
|
| Titan Hi Jethro! I'm not sure where he's been and certainly hope he's doing well. He'll be back...
|
| SharkTooth Unfortunate, but the only alternative would be finding another user and that sounds like a big nuisance
|
| Divaman Good news - I was mistaken. I was able to stream the new album on the ship tonight, so I'll be able to vote after all.
|
| Divaman I know it's not easy to run one of these things.
|
| Divaman OK, but I won't be able to vote in Match 3 then. I'm out at see now and won't be able to stream any music.
|
| Mythodea Hi Jethro! My answer would be the same as the fella below me ;)
|
| porcupinetheater Hey Jethro, thanks for the reminder. Been an insane week, but I'll have a vote by tomorrow for you. Thanks again for running this tourney, love!
|
| e210013 Everything was alright, pal. Yes, I intend to enter in the third round to begin my participation as usual.
|
| TheIntruder Sorry pal. I only saw this today. I am a bit busy right now to participate in a so long tournament. Maybe next year. Anyway thanks for the invitation. I hope it will be a great tournament as usual. Meanwhyle I will try to follow it and perhaps I participate with a vote or comment. I will see it.
|
| Scheumke Ah I see it was in an earlier post, here you go: https://open.spotify.com/album/1GvvMDn2AZylTetivUklYq?si=RTBwOMAuTiSVJ2wUTHefKA
|
 | someone Nah its alright, ill join next time. Whyd the other guy get kicked out?
|
| Voivod All three Malady releases are excellent, but imho, their latest is only loosely affiliated with traditional progressive rock.
|
| kalkwiese I guess I have to say "thank you" and "you're welcome" at the same time. :) I was so happy when I discovered them myself
|
| TwigTW Thanks for the offer, Jethro, but I don't have an entry this time around.
|
| bgillesp Fixed it. Idk what happened to the link the first time
|
 | MrSirLordGentleman Thanks for the reminder bro!, I've already checked both albums but I'm trying to find the time to listen to them a couple more times. My vote will be there by tomorrow, don't worry!
|
| kalkwiese Yes, of course I want to vote. But I haven't made up my mind yet
|
| Voivod I want to extend a sincere thanks for the invite Jethro, but right now I don't have the time to listen to twenty albums and vote, I will observe the deliberations of this round though, and make an entry in future ones.
|
 | Friday13th You can kick people out. I think one time I wanted to but since it would ruin the even number of 16 albums. If you find two stinkers who don't respond or participate you can kick them both out and still be even LOL
|
| Divaman I'm hoping you'll be able to give me the third contest a week in advance, so I can download the files and take them on my cruise. I'll have internet at sea, but I don't think I'll have streaming internet, so I can go on the Sputnik site, vote, etc., but I won't be able to stream to listen over YouTube, band camp, etc.
|
| wham49 that write up was supposed to be for the tournament, not you, I figured you knew the band
|
| wham49 I agree on UB, Morocan roll may be my least fave so far. I recently got a couple of live shows, the official bootleg series their called, NY 77 one and the chicago 78, the chicago show is pretty great havent gotten to the NY show yet
|
| bnelso55 Oh no! Hopefully it's not too much trouble to fix.
|
| TwigTW No worries, Jethro... looking forward to many great prog discoveries!
|
| kalkwiese Thanks, I already listened to both albums today. Interesting stuff, I really enjoy both :)
|
| TwigTW Thanks Jethro, I'm definitely interested. I have nothing to enter, but I'll be listening and voting!
|
| Friday13th They might get tired of it. The Syzygy album from last year was about 72 minutes long. Phoenix - Cantafabule was about 70 minutes long and that one at least made it past a couple rounds. If it's good I don't think it matters, but it's certainly something to consider.
|
| zakalwe Haha. Bless ya. Oh well at least I can dig into some of the recs. Thanks for taking over the baton I love these things.
|
| Scheumke Hey no worries man, no offense taken! I'll fix a blurb for it right away.
|
| zakalwe Good Lord its already started apologies I thought the idea was being floated and the tourney would start in several days if not weeks. I?d better get me skates on.
|
| e210013 I'm ok, and I hope the same to you. I'll be back in March the second. I hope you don't begin before that, please.
|
| wham49 t it that way. The vocal songs are kinda of breaks for the very proggy stuf in between. Side 2 or the second half of the album is just very special. Please give this many listens as it is a grower. Enjoyyour truly Wham
|
| wham49 write up for Brand xBrand X may be familiar to you along with member Phil Collins, you may have heard of him from his very Prog laden band Genesis, but it seems as though this album is not as familiar as others in the Brand X cannon. This is the first Brand X album that I have heard, so all others are compared to them. When researching the band I found that this is thought of as a more main stream outing for the band. It may be becasue of the vocal tracks and shorter songs. I never thought abou
|
| wham49 so then I will go with it Jethro,I'll write something up for it this weekend
|
| Divaman Might need to change my entry. I didn't realize until I sent you the link last night that the albums about twice as long as I thought. I was listening off my MP3 player, but I only saved the tracks I like best. Let me give the whole thing a listen on bandcamp and then I'll let you know.
|
| Divaman I do, thanks. Think I might have figured out which way I'm going to go, but I'm still checking other options.
|
 | normaloctagon jethro my friend! thank u for the shout. i wont have the time to fully participate this year, but i will try to pop in to the threads now and again to listen to some of the albums and hang out! hope all is well with you
|
| wham49 Brand X/ Product it says jazz fusion but its proggy enough I think
|
| bnelso55 It's good to hear from you, Jethro. I'm doing well. Thanks. I hope the same for you. That's great that the tournament is coming back. Please keep me in the loop! I'm definitely interested in participating.
|
| Divaman Yeah, I was surprised about that. Here's the YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a44LPetZWMM
|
| Divaman Are you open to the band Solarus? They're described as Prog/Power metal on last.fm and also have the progressive metal tag (along with 2 others) here on Sputnik. I haven't made up my mind yet, but they're one of the bands I'm looking at.
|
| kalkwiese Hey, this tourney looks like fun, but I'm nit exactly sure what I would get myself into. Is there anywhere where I can read the rules?
|
| zakalwe Hello mate. Hope everything finds you well. As long as I draw breath I will always be there to participate in a prog tourney.
|
| Divaman Will do. Hope I'll be able to fully participate. I'll be away from March 4 through the 13, and away again in early May.
|
 | CaptainDooRight No worries my bro, yes indeed gotta get an iPad that will be the easiest and best for you, good luck!
|
| CaptainDooRight Check out the below video. If you have arthritis the keyboards might be hard to play too so try out GarageBand it would be my best recommendation for you to get started the easiest way. Also the cheapest way too! Let me know how it goes! You can literally play all the instruments with your fingers ::]]
|
| CaptainDooRight Or if you wanna go super easy and basic you can just download GarageBand for 5 dollars onto your iPad and tap the screen to play notes and record. I?ll find a video for GarageBand
|
| CaptainDooRight Yes true indeed, only one interface is needed for everything. Buts only if your playing with actually instruments. Otherwise if you?re just using a keyboard to use virtual instruments you won?t need an interface. Although setting up a MIDI keyboard could be a little annoying if you don?t know what software you need to run those virtual instruments. If you?re not tech savvy I would recommend getting a regular keyboard like a Casio just for fun to learn how to play it
|
| CaptainDooRight I provided a link which talks about what an interface does. But you can also search YouTube for affording DAW?s which is what the software is known as that does the recording. And depending on what instrument you?re exactly playing you can search how to record with that. If you let me know what you?re instrument you?re playing I can better guide you
|
| CaptainDooRight I don?t play any artificial instruments so I?m not sure about that. But yes I have heard of Fruity Loops and Ableton. I saw Acid Music Studio online for about 60 bucks. That?s a pretty good price. But yeah by artificial if you mean playing the instruments on let?s a say a keyboard using the artificial instruments on that you can do that too. But you need an interface for any instruments that use a 1/4 inch jack or you?re using a MIDI keyboard the usb works the same.
|
| CaptainDooRight Hey what?s up Jethro! Yes software has to be used to record everything. I use a DAW called Sony Acid to record everything. And yes I play all instruments live. I play the guitar, bass, keyboard, and drums. And I do vocals too. There?s a lot more to the recording process. But let me know if you have any questions I?d be happy to answer anything my good friend!
|
| Divaman Did you see that the new Jethro Tull album has been scheduled for release, on January 22?
|
| e210013 Thanks for the explanation, bro. I understood it in a different way.
|
| Divaman Have you listened to the new Yes album?
|
| Divaman It took a little while to grow on me, but I'm really enjoying the new Mostly Autumn album. I really love Bryan Josh's classic, Gilmoresque guitar style, and while I know you miss Heidi, I enjoy Olivia Sparnen's vocals as well.
|
| e210013 No, my friend. You have another one very fresh, today.
|
| e210013 Thanks my friend. It was really a huge surprise. I'm going to have two more vacation weeks in the beginning of September. But, I'm going to participate in what all I can.
|
| e210013 Thanks, bro. I'm going to have a vacation week. We'll see here after that. And congrats. You deserve.
|
| e210013 Sorry my friend with my mistake and the confusion it made. It wasn't my intention. I hope that everything remains ok with us.
|
 | DDDeftoneDDD Yeah the last one is pretty nice. A lot of kc and jethro worship. For their last 4 I dig Heritage the most, but Cauda is really cool! Sorry to stalk you pm s with zig ahah. Cheers!
|
| porcupinetheater **** yeah, thanks for the heads up. Dealing with some family s*** and haven?t had much time to Sput around/jam new things, won?t be able to vote in time for this round, but I?ll hop back in this upcoming week. Cheers, Love, hope things are beautiful in JethroLand
|
| DDDeftoneDDD Hi friend latest 4 Opeth's are progrock worship and no metal. Give a shot on their latest. hug XD
|
| e210013 Yeah you're right. I think they sound too much to folk. They sound too much acoustic, particularly for the young generations, who love to listen fast electric guitarists, thinking this is the real prog music. Many people associate prog to bands like Dream Theater and Opeth. Once one of the staff on Sputnik told me he was a very prog guy. But, he was talking about prog metal bands. They can't understand prog is a World where everything is possible, however different and strange it can be.
|
| e210013 I'm not so surprised. I always felt Strawbs an underrated band, even in the prog circles. And this was the main reason why I brought them to this tourney. I really never thought to win with them, actually. But, I'm really not sure if it was worth the effort here on Sputnik. We just can see that with the only more 4 ratings of this album since I published my review. So, this isn't a loved band here.
|
| e210013 No, but the weekends are for my family, the time when my sons visit me and when I can spend more time with my wife. It's nice that you are listening "All Traps On Earth". I think a 4 is more akin with your ratings.
|
 | Nagrarok What are the two albums you're considering?
|
| Nagrarok Hi Jethro, I'm doing pretty good. Things are looking up pandemic-wise, so that's been a relief. Able to see (more) friends and family again, finally. I have to be honest though, I don't know if I can put my mind to a review, too many other things going on these days.
|
| e210013 About The Tea Club album, you had already mentioned it to me. Anyway, I already had them into my radar to check. About "A Drop Of Light", it really sounds to Anglagard but with a touch of Canterbury and jazz tones. I saw your rating and I think you was too harsh with it. I think it deserves a better rating. I really think you need to revisit it.
|
| e210013 It's fun that you say that. I have the same feelings. Actually, I only chose Strawbs album few days before. I had all arranged to choose a completely different album, "A Drop Of Light" of All Traps On Earth. I even wrote a review of it. This was already planed for months. So, as you see, it seems that we are closer in our actions and not only in our tastes. Lol.
|
| e210013 It seems you was right my friend. For the first time we are against each other. No regrets. May the favourite of all us win. I hope that it will be a great fight. I don't know your album yet, but I'm sure that will be great. But, you're in advantage. You don't need to check none of the albums, but I need to check yours. Lol.
|
| Titan Yanni Gourde, yes! Scored the short handed goal and had another big goal earlier in the series....great player
|
| Titan Yeah bro, i went to game 7 last night. It might've been the loudest sporting event that I've ever been to. I hope you guys pull it off becuase these fans are really arrogant lately. Buccaneers, Lightning, and almost the Rays. Enough is enough! Go Habs, going to try to get tickets for game 7....
|
| Titan Congrats to your Habs Jethro! As a Ranger fan living in Tampa, I don't like either the Isles or Lightning. Best of luck in Finals!
|
| e210013 It crossed my mind too. I never checked your album, but I'm sure it's great. So, I'm not confortable to have you as my opponent too. The same happens with Intruder's album. "Mainstream" is one of my favourite albums of the Canterbury scene. So, I'm some hope of not confronting my album with yours and Intruder's album. But, the probabilities are very hight. Besides, it's a bless to have such kind of opponents here. Have fun for the rest of the tourney too, my friend, regardless of what happens.
|
| e210013 I can see what you mean. I myself was a bit divided too. Even today, I don't know if I choose the right decision. Both albums are great but both albums have some weaknesses. So, your decision isn't really strange to me.
|
| e210013 Basically yes. But, they changed a bit after "Not Of This World". They turned into a more muscular band, as happened with some neo-prog British bands, like Galahad, joining a bit of metal to their sound. So, we can say "Love Over Fear" is a kind of a return to their more melodic roots. The albums you must check of that phase are four, probably by this order, "The Masquerade Overture", "Not Of This World", "The Window Of Life" and "The World".
|
| Friday13th Cool, yeah I?ve heard of the Tea Club and will have to check it out.
|
| zakalwe Ha yeah the syzygy one is definitely in your face. Some of it proper rocks. I will take Pendragon to me grave if need be.
|
| e210013 I had already The Tea Party under my radar. Anyway, thanks for remember me of them. I'm going to put that album in my most recent list. Thanks bro.
|
| zakalwe An average rating as well. You have to laugh. For me I still dont think pig views will be bettered in this tourney.
|
| e210013 Thanks for this other name buddy. I'm going to inform about it.
|
| e210013 Ok. It seems I don't need your help. Suddenly, I remembered the name, Gargamel. In the end I was right. It's was a Scandinavian band. Anyway, thank you buddy. Cheers.
|
| e210013 I need your help my friend. Once you gave me a name of a modern band with strong influences of VDGG. I'm not sure if it was when I published my review about Unfolded Like Staircase of Discipline. But, I simply forgot the name. If you give me some names, I think I can remember. I'm not sure if it's a Scandinavian band.
|
| TwigTW You've returned for the prog contest-nice! I'm looking forward to hearing your entry...
|
| zakalwe Its rightfully yours jethro. I?m happy with love over fear as my nomination I absolutely love that as well and hopefully someone maybe inclined to give it a listen now but I doubt it
|
| zakalwe Pig Views is honestly one of the best recs Ive had. That album is brilliant. Love it.
|
| Friday13th Yes, repeating a band is okay as long as it?s another album that qualifies.
|
| zakalwe Lovely worm related material. Thoroughly enjoyed Nayfiolen as well. Superb rec
|
| zakalwe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yw1VKVySjnA now that has hit the spot. very nice. Cheers mate.
|
| zakalwe Give me guidance oh oracle of prog. To be honest I dip into your ratings and lists to dig for gold. What would you recommend if I?m after a more tranquil type of thing. Sedate with solos.
|
| zakalwe Love that Regal Worm album it?s mental in the best possible way.
|
| e210013 Sincerely my friend, only now I saw your new list. In the last week, I had my close family near to me and so I didn't have time to spend on sites. Thanks for the invitation. Surely I'm interested. I'm going to check it and we are going to talk about it.
|
| Nagrarok Ah, then I misunderstood, I wasn't sure that was what you meant in the first place. I'm doing mostly fine, the pandemic just hasn't been making life very interesting, so to speak. When I get back to the site more regularly again I'll keep an eye out for you so we can get back to that.
|
| Nagrarok That's probably the best plan. It took me days to get back to you this time, so that says something about how often I get back here lately. A shame you lost the review, another album is fine with me too, of course.
|
| e210013 I already answered on my comment about the review. Thanks again bro. Your critics are always welcome in what concern to me. About the review, I'm not going to change it. It's a good propaganda to Friday's tournaments, I think. Lol. Besides, I don't like to change what I write. I think they're my personal impulses and thougts in a precise moment. Probably, if I wrote it again it would be different. Again, thanks.
|
| Nagrarok Hi Jethro, apologies for the very late response. I haven't been on for a whole month, lots of other things occupying my mind. Do you still have the same email? I can send you a message if you still have the same address ;)
|
| Nagrarok It's definitely good stuff. It doesn't quite grab me entirely, but very enjoyable. The vocals are sparse even for prog but I can't understand Italian anyway =P
|
| Nagrarok Ah, more of the Italian stuff. I remember your interest in Italian prog. I think I'll be able to give it a listen tomorrow.
|
| Titan Consider it done jethro. And I expect nothing but perfection from you and Nag, as the bar is being set very high with that combination. Looking forward to both of your contributions together. Glad you're still around on the site my friend.
|
| Nagrarok Yeah, I noticed that too, it's weird. But the shouts were obviously yours, so.
|
| Nagrarok I doubt that too, of course I haven't really been active for years either, and I must admit my musical diet is a little lighter on prog than it used to be. The old favourites always return sooner of later though. On fairly rare occasions I still make a post or two, but mostly I just use the site to keep track of what I've listened to. But it's really good to see you've been sticking around and to talk every so often ;)
|
| Nagrarok Sure thing, it's been a while but I'll be able to find time for it.
|
| Nagrarok Indeed I am, catching up with all the rest that they did. I enjoy the albums with Collins most but there's definitely more to like beyond that. I forgot all about UK as well! Got to give them another listen sometime too. Yeah, the pandemic still sucks, not much else to say about that. I haven't seen my most of my friends or family for nearly a year now, but there's not much to do except sticking it out.
|
| Nagrarok How are you Jethro? I've stumbled across Brand X again after years of sort of forgetting about them. I loved their first album back when I first listened to it but I never checked out the rest. Shame on me, it's great stuff.
|
| Voivod Good to know Jethro that you have your condition under control, hope it will wane some time soon! As for Sput, once a Sput, always a Sput!
|
| Voivod You are welcome and I hope you are fine and healthy :-)
