Prog should always be capitalised, dear Sir...

Only time I've seen Jobson was on the Zoot Allures era Zappa tour

How right you are. Unlike pUNK.

I liked Jobson's work with Roxy Music too. Not that he did. He must have hated being with them while he has only nice things to say about his first love, Curved Air. The man is an amazing keyboard player - Emerson league really - and violinist. He plays electic violin like other people play lead guitar or Ian Anderson plays flute. Speaking of which: I like the A albun of JT which features Jobson  too.

Same bill as ZZ Top (in their Deguello phase) that Rockpalast night and while the 'Unter Ronson Band wasn't bad, the phrase was coined later on that one Bill Gibbons had more energy than the two guitarists of the Hunter Ronson Band plus Ian playing guitar together. Not really a fair comparison as Ronson was always a more ornamental player rather than one who brick-walled soundscapes with his Les Paul. That Rockpalast night broke the German market for ZZ Top (who only had a cult following largely among musicians before this, their first ever German gig), but unfortunately did nothing for Ian Hunter (but then Mott the Hoople was never much of a draw in Germany either).



OMG, back then ZZ Top were just a couple of youngish guys with very long beards!  :o

I'm slow in responding.  But I saw ZZ Top play even before they had their beards.  Close to Muscle Shoals.  It was in a college auditorium, and although there were seats, everyone stood up the entire concert, of course.  It was mesmerizing.  ZZ Top was literally on fire, obviously tired out of their minds, but so into the music that they kept playing even after they were supposed to stop.  It was an encore that went beyond an encore I suppose.  I discovered as my life progressed that concerts that electrifying are few and far between.

Prog with chick appeal. They are still touring. I always found that she had a bit of Grace Slick in her voice.

Yikes! If that's true, how fortunate that I've never heard them. Grace Slick's voice is as scary as her face.

I'm booking a flight to Deutschland so that I may shake your hand sir.  ;D

Jake, children are silent when adults discuss prog!

I see I hit a nerve  :P 

Fair enough; you can keep the lot of it.

Alright, Uwe, we, the  Armia Krajowa, have captured your moles.  Luckily this little one was not too far gone, her aunt however, will have to go through intense deprogramming, or be shot if that fails.  I should have been more suspicious of those capitulating Danes from the start.

Spinning, whirling, still descending, like a spiral sea unending... strewth, have you ever tried to use one of those modern nappy disposal systems...?

Found this public access performance on a blog that had nothing to do with music or basses (it was describing the cheesy 80's z movie this song came from). As bad as the song is it was interesting to see the guy actually using the onboard FX.

I spent the entire vid trying to guess the gender of the frontperson (I didn't look at/see the title).  The song's not that bad though.
