I struggle to understand some of the lyrics to Episode...

The songs are so strong both musically and lyrically

Stunning stuff

See me at the end of the lesson






I caught you walking on a rainy day
And tossing petals into a pool
So keep your mind off passing hours
'Cause I'll be coming for you soon

Make believe you are a dancer
Though perhaps you'd make a better queen
And before you leave you better count roses
And a mad, mad way you want to scream
Or if you want, he'll give you slippers
Or shoot an arrow on past the sun
Or be the keeper always of my mind and heart
Or is it best you go unseen

Once you were star-struck and now twice you're not
And things go badly as they do
But I want the rainbows out of heaven
I'll only steal them when I can

And me I'm just your soldier
An heirloom to a basket queen
And all the blisters, and I'm fevered
And only silence killed my dreams
If you want he'll give you slippers
Or shoot an arrow on past the sun
Or be the keeper always of my mind and heart
You think you got control
You don't, you'll never know, you'll never know

You'll be the keeper of the Holy Grail
You seize it quick, you dare not fail
You're the only survivor of your holy quest
Or is it best you go unseen

I tend not to pay to much attention to lyrics - it's the sound of the vocal for me (this is a huge generalisation). Adore the pathos Surkamp can vocalise.

Preludin!!!!


Very Gentle Giant [even Tull]

I once met keyboard players brother in law at a Neil Young convention. He told me about the Pekin Tapes, which they had recorded before Menial. They came out a few years back but were a bit disappointing.



Or if you want, he'll give you slippers.. really?

This IS Prog.

I entirely agree

I have many fave albums which I havent worked out (or bothered) to find out what is been sung

Advent of Panurge by GG is one such example [and many many more]

Lyrics generally don't interest me

This IS Prog.

'tis so.



And it's all been wonderful.

I gave a little yELP... (apologies)

[Neil Jung]

The guitarist is pretty good on that last track. What about the drumming? Did he deserve to be replaced by Bill Bruford?

[Spock!]

Gorgeous.

Deserve?


No.

So delightful from start to finish

A perfect album methinks

Beautifully crafted

RIP those band members no longer with us. Thank you

I’ve got lots of reviews and articles about this album stored away inside one of the lp covers.

Only 34 minutes! But what a ride.
