I didn't mind it, especially when it got going, but i don't think I'd want to pursue any further .

Where do you find all this stuff? You must stream it, i can't imagine your wallet's that big?

Or maybe it is. You are a Lordship, after all :D.

Streaming yes, Spotify is my constant companion.

I refer to progarchives.com a lot, read various prog blogs (this is a good one for new releases although not many reviews http://newprogreleases.blogspot.com/ ) and Facebook groups.

Leprous are actually big in the current genre although have been a touch too heavy for me in the past so hadn’t bothered with their last couple of albums. Thought I’d give them another go and enjoyed this one.

I tried it too - but it wasn't for me

Too many notes in the wrong order...!

I just knew you were going to say that!

Yes, but the trouble is they are the wrong notes in the wrong order!

Here we have the right notes in the wrong order!

A great album - my favourite of theirs.

Check out one or two of the solo Manuel Göttsching albums - awesome

This is a corker (highlights too [above])

Image

Frank with Napoleon, The Fowlers, Chester and Ralph H on tubs, Ruth and George Duke

The Roxy sort of tracks - Cheepnis, Penguin, Village in Sun plus Uncle Meat, Idiot Bastard, Eric Dolphy era plus RDNZL, Big Swifty, Slime etc

Great sound and no 'audience participation' tedium.

Very robust

My only slight criticism is that Napoleon is great on the sax but not quite an Ike Willis et alia on the vocals.
Adequate though

NOW PLAYING LOUDLY!

Heaven - Brass Rock 1

British band’s only album, released in 1971. LOTS of brass, fairly heavy, not bad.

New to me. Anyone familiar?
