As Mr. Shea pointed out with the above example, most sales people are very shitheaded and ignorant(putting it into my cutting across the bullshit vernacular). They have no comittment to the job.It`s a friggin paycheck for most of these people. The work ethic has long since vanished. Service with a s...

The first album, `In The Court of The Crimson King' is, IMo, one of the best and all-important albums around. It helped to kickstart a genre. When Pete Townsend first reviewed the albm, he called it an `uncanny masterpiece. This music is intensity,not rock.' I agree. Very few albums or bands have be...

TVM, Im hoping everyone here is aok and whatever new mwmbers are here, I like to extend a welcoming hand to. What have I been doing/ Actually, Ive been in solitude, a period of bereavement for one of my childhood heroes, Mr. Rogers(the famed American who hosted programs for children. I know it happe...

Band On the Run is the best Beatles solo album IMO. It may not be progressive, but so what? I go for direct emotion and feel. Macca may not be a virtuoso as the Yesmen, but the man has a great talent for writng songs. The title track; What can I say. My all time faveThe orchestration buildup that le...

Proghead, don`t even think about it!!!!!!
Dahni, thanks for the wishes and Im glad to see you had a good one too, even if you are hurting still. Those are the best birthdays, when you are numbed and feeling no pain.

I can`t say i`m very surprised by this. I don`t like to see any person get booted out of a site. What I`m most astonished about is that he lasted as long as he did. Getting back to your thread, Jodi, I don`t have visions of spirits,and angels. For me, my life has always been about luck and chance.....

Yesman; Yor posts are full of positve energy and I know you will be fine with your positive outlook on life. I hope you have a speedy recovery and get back here soon...

It has been a long while since I roamed these parts, but yesterday was Dahni`s birthday. I think it`s only fair we wish her a Happy one. In theory, since I`m over in America, it`s still technically her birthday. So Happy Birthday to our mistress of talkroom chat. Hope it`s a good one...

At one time, Rod Stewart was one of the great rock and roll singer . His approach was emotional, heartfelt, unpretentious and direct. Stewart`s `Every picture tells A Story album is a classic and I`m stil wondering how I didn`t nominate this album in Soundchaser`s classic album thread on this forum ...

Styx never did it for me as a band. They were nothing more than a sludgy, smudged up copy of the Britsh prog bands For me, it`s the difference between a Stroh`s light and a Guiness. Styx is akin to Stroh`s light. Watered down, tepid, anemic pomp-rock that is too shallow. It doesn`t taste very good a...

Bundy, I agree with you on `Pictures'. This is one of the best live albums in rock and for me, it sums up ELP well. If I was to give the unitiated anintroduction to ELp, it would be this album You have soft acoustic passages, choir boy singing, and pummeling bass work by Lake. Frenetic keybaord work...

Yeskat, congrats on your daughter`s wedding. I wish her the best. TVM, I`m recovering from anothe banner night. Miss Lazybones was at it again, procrastinating and dawding withthe customers. She also tripped me up tonight when she couldn`t find a certain package and asked to me to take over finding ...

I`ll gladly start us off. In my new position, i currently do sation work, handling the front counter, rating packages,listening to customers complaints, getting blasted by people as to why their shipment was not deliverd or why they missed it. I also trace problem packages (incorrect zipcodes, bad s...

I think some of you are over analyzing a bit if you ask me? Isn`t Jon`s lyrics stream of consciousness thought? or even wordplay? The few times when he is not vague, I have loved it, such as `Gates Of Delirium or `Turn of the Century

The live versions of Siberian Khatru and CTTE definitely outshine the studio versions, althoughh i do prefer Bruford`s precise, controlled drumming on the studio version. They have never been able to better the studio version of `And You And I'. The power of the mellotron and steel guitar meshing to...

I prefer Phil behind the drumkit with his mouth shut. That`s where he belongs.

Sorry to disagree ,but `The Nice' did not single handedly invent progressive rock. They had help. There was a group that put out an album with a downright scary cover and inside contained some of the most dynamic,mind-blowing music that has ever been heard. Possibly,one of the most important rock al...

No,i`m in the poor house right now.

Welcome..I`m late with my greetings but better late than never...

I almost fell off the chair laughing at this. She really is a stupid pig!!! Bundy hit it right on the mark. Pop can be a valid musical form as witnessed by the Beatles. Hell, even the songs by Pete Ham and Badfinger are gems. You have to take it from the source it comes from. Britney`s idea of music...

Not an inch of fat on me!!! I`m still trim, slim, happy , and handsome as ever<img src=pix/icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=pix/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

This is not a bad album at all. I do feel C`mon People is one of his best anthem like songs ever, and `Get Out of My Way' is a great out and out rocker. Best played when charging down the highway.

That really blows!!! Emerson is hard up for the cash to pay off his alimony. The Nice???? Please!!! Bring back ELP. Lee Jackson and Brian Davidson are mediocre musicians who couldn`t even measure up to half the talents Greg lake and Carl palmer have. Why did Emerson leave that band 33 years ago to f...

It`s been a while.. Tom, as I told you in chat the other night, i`m sorry to hear about the accident. You`re alive and that`s all that matters. Lately, I have been getting adjusted to the new position at FedEx. I`m catching on fine,but i don`t trust mgt. here either. And some of the co-workers are a...

Exactly!!!! And unfortunately,it led to the demise of Genesis. When Phil left in 1996,his fans abandoned the group as well, precipitating poor album sales for 1997`s Calling All Stations(not that it was good anyway. I can`t blame Phil and Ray wilson did a great job singing. It`s jsut that the materi...

I have gone on record stating I don`t like this album and i`ll leave it at that. But a $1.20 for any Yes album is agreat deal. I wish I woud have waited as I thought it wasn`t worth full price. But hey, that`s life....More power to you, Mr. Landon

If it had to be one, `Going For the One'. I just love this and it`s one of my fave albums in life.

Thi is hard. I cant limit myself to three. can I cheat, Jodi? you cheated on my thread ` top ten albums outside of yes' a while back by naming a Yes solo album. Well actaully, that was clever and agood way of getting around it. I`ll play fair; Going For the One. I never get tired of this. the songs ...

I`m not really a collector at all. I have gotten very selective in recent years as it comes to books and cd`s. Most suck nowadays and I have no doubt they are all manufactured by the same comittee or company. Also, i`m tired of blowing money on inferior product. I`m very picky,no doubt. I`ll collect...

I have no desire to see this as i thought the first one sucked. It was convoluted and all I remember about it was Laurence Fishburne`s character going on about `The Oracle'. Also, the action scemes seemed a bit disjointed and they had an obviously, fake computer generstaed feel to them. Movie making...
