What i've noticed thru the ''Spinning today'' section as well as other forums is that people generally have a broad & varied taste in music..How is this possible? Just how! No way on earth could i listern to a different style of music than what i do!...Just something i've never understood..I find it near on impossible..
:scratch:
It's called being open-minded, mate. You're just too stuck in your ways! ;)
:gig:
No way could I listen to the same type of music day in day out...
Variety is the spice of life!

Music is a mood thing for me, and different types of music suit different moods, or occasions. Man, yesterday I was listening to George Michael, The Beatles, Tiesto, and then finished off with some Hawkwind!
I guess that I must have been in a strange mood... :)

Superb.Next time you listern to the real Hawkwind bear these images in mind:Quote:

Stacia Blake all 6 ft 2 inches tall with a 52 inch bust.Luverly..Her last appearence with hawkwind was the Reading festival late 1975...
I've seen Hawkwind live 8 times.
VG- You're putting us on, right? You can't be serious.
VG: Surely as a prog enthusiast you realise the reason why that style started was because of a broad musical taste. Prog bands often incorporate other styles (such as classical and jazz) into their music... which is what makes it progressive.
I listen to, and even play many different styles. I am a classical pianist who plays keyboards in a heavy metal band, and also piano/keyboards in a Jazz duet.
Aye & the record company bosses are what ended progressive in the mid '70's.All that was gone for a more simple straight forward composition if you like to call em that .Quote:

I think the choice is as much down to the residuals from a working day as anything, well that and if listening alone or 'en famille'
What makes prog so exciting.Incorporated styles or not, prog is still a music all of it's own..Quote:

Yum yum Stacia ..
Would start off a thread only I dunno where to. Cooker yes! Hifi Yes...ish! Pontuter......nah!
Nice pic tho' Been watching a you tube version of "Spirit of the Age" with Mathew Wright (day time telly geezer) on vocals.... cool but Mr Calvert he ain't. Speaking of which I recently got a copy of "Lucky Lief and the Longships" which i used to adore but strangely on first listening found tough going. i will try harder!
I always found that one hard going.. My softspot was always Captain Lockheed........ Catch a falling Starfighter..:drugs:Quote:
