When discussing the best prog artists from the States, Kansas and Styx mostly come up first and second but I think Todd and Utopia deserve to be first (with Ambrosia a close 2nd; listen to their first 2 albums).

I am now 67 and only found out last week that Sandy Denny had died in 1978, having spent my whole younger life singing 'Crazy Man Michael', Fotheringhay,' 'Who Knows Where the Time Goes' and others in my bar/restaurant in Spain..... I was 22 when l left England in 1978, and had a lot on my hands raising a business & a family - l retired a year ago after a hip replacement and started looking back through the archives, and was stunned to hear of her early death.😮Sandy Denny had absolutely been my role model in my late teens & right through my twenties & thirties - l just can't understand how l never knew that she had died. Must have been too far away & too wrapped up in my own world. R.I.P Sandy🙏
Thankfully the Ronnie wood years were..what did you say..about 10 years right...ending in the 80s sometime. I saw the stones in late 80s 90s 00s 2010s and 2020s ... who was that wood lookalike. Thumbnail BS on yt is f cked.
Gorgeous once in the life time, the amazing magical voice and her beauty that came with it. We miss her. May God bless her beautiful soul. She left us too soon.
Est 54:30 The gentleman stating “Black or White” is dated bc of the rap. Uuuuuuhhhhhmm….. ok? Sometimes the “time stamp” can make a song enjoyable. Plus, it can be great fun and fabulous to hear a song that easily identifies when we were. Not every song needs to be an anthem or timeless or whatever else. He comes across as someone that just doesn’t like Michael Jackson. He doesn’t seem like he has anything positive to say. It’s not constructive criticism; it’s just bashing and he’s enjoying it. In German there’s a word that expresses perfectly what dude seems to be doing: Schadenfreude
After all the beautiful music, it must be remembered that Morrison grew up a tough Belfast street kid who fortunately found his way into music. As an American I visited Belfast and that place was no joke in the 50s 60s 70s. It was a rough enviornment and must have had aprofoundeffect on the development of Morrison's personality.
I used to stare at that album cover with the three of them looking down at me for hours. Susan's expression just made me ache inside. What an enchantress.
June 25 is the saddest day of my life. The more I think about the events of that day, the more obvious it is that Michael Jackson was murdered. Such an artist, such a humanitarian and such a lonely man... At his most important moment of need he was abandonned... God bless you Michael Jackson wherever you are I wish you peace freedom and love today tomorrow and forever ❤

The rocking over and back and being unsociable as a small kid is definitely a sign of being on the ASD my own daughter is diagnosed as having high functioning autism (or aspergers as it was called once) but she did the exact same, rocking over and back to music , was a very lonely kid, she also had cerebral palsy so she found that a huge barrier as well and it was , she had a horrible school life. Left when she was 17 but I hadnt inown she had been hiding severe bullying for years before 😔 when she did finally break and spill all , I poulled her straight out of school and she had to see a psychiatrist who would then discover she was on the ASD. She was surrounded by love and stability, I can't imagine what Em went through 😥
Kate Bush albums never quite feel a whole to me. The Hounds of Love may seem to have a solid side 1 and solid side 2 . I never really thought that. The songs stand alone, work alone.I think she got better about weaving songs together as a theme or landscape by the time Aerial and Fifty Words For Snow arrive. Sensual World actually seems to capture an atmosphere.
