Follow on to my above reply.

As I understand it, Pendragon were around at the time that Punk
swept Britain. It isn't really that the vocals are poor, it is more a question I think that they follow the Punk style in places on that track. Notice the emphasised word endings.

On the subject of vocals. I don't know what others think but throughout the many thousands of tracks over the years that I've heard, all too many have shown good opening promise to be wrecked once the vocals chirp in.

On AM there has also been many tracks that are new to me, (mainly post-1980) that have opened really really well only to
take a swandive when the vocals turn up. I am not a vocal fan I am the first to admit but to me the vocalists in all too many bands are pretty suspect. Very few are up to the job I believe.

I welcome your opinions but whilst you are listening to progrock, take particular notice to the vocals. Do they enhance the track or do they degrade a belter of a classic. Imagine if you will the tracks
with the vocals totally missing. I think you may be surprised.

Food for thought people - not intended as controversy.

A music discussion forum - what do you think people? Of course
no-one is right and no-one is wrong.

Gotta go - My Paintbox request has just started. Thanks lads!!
(for the umpteenth time).

Keep well.
