pdj- re: procol harum-

"whiskey train" w/ robin trower-
"conquistodor" from the live w/
the edmonton symphony album-
"bringing home the bacon"-
"simple sister"
"a salty dog"
all early days of college FM staples,
most of these are available on the "best of.."
--------------

has there been much discussion of why
most here don't care for dream theater?

for my tastes, there's too much "damn, ain't i a virtuoso"
going on. they need to learn to shift gears,
show the ability to be subtle.
to me, that's the mark of a great prog band.
i've always admired pieces like "echoes" for
the simplicity, while maintaining an emotional connection.
30 years down the road, the piece holds up.
i guess that's it. i don't "connect" w/ dream theater.
