Kaz,

Greetings from Texas!

I am like Peter - I was in a mail order record club in my high school days and I got Jean Michel Jarre's Oxygene - WOW - it was different - but oh how I liked it.... Then I got Emerson, Lake and Palmer's Brain Salad Surgery - I thought I was in heaven... I love the bombastic keyboards of Emerson.

It amazed me to no end to realize that ALL that sound was being made by 3 guys - even live!

That was the beginnings of my Prog journey...

And welcome to Aural Moon... glad to have you with us.!

Regards from Texas,
Ted

Hi Kas and other moonies,

Growing up in the latter sixties and right through the seventies I suppose I could say I was exposed many different types of different music. I started to find I liked a lot of what I heard. I only started earning money in the early eighties and that is when I started my music collection (Aqualung, Moontan and Led Zepp II where my first purchases), this was the era of The New Romantics, Steve Windwood and Phil Collins released there solo albums. Most, if not all, my friends and family thought my music task was somewhat weird and eclectic.

Just over a year ago I did a google search on King Crimson after watching a movie and found the Prog Archives, www.progarchives.com, this was the first time I found a name for the music I liked. Prog Archives showed me the way to The Moon and now I am in music “heaven”.

Thanks again to all involved.
