“Prog Rock: A genre that intent on proving that Rock and Roll didn’t have to be simple and silly-it could be complicated and silly instead." - The New Yorker. “(At that time) I began to see how music, and the stories of musicians, could play an uncanny role in our lives.” David Remnick, The New Yorker, 2021. "Prog is brave people trying to do something challenging.” M. Rutherford, 2017, loudersound.com. If Rock is a Genre, Prog Rock is a Subgenre and 70s Prog Rock is a part of that Subgenre, The Classic Prog Rock I Like (my Fav Musical World) is a Genre itself? 😂 Anyway, what for sure is My Own Challenge. I like to think my Clips are like boxes full of small pills, like different planets full of common worlds. Cada dia, nous continguts Prog a: t.me/classicalprog
Music isn’t about athleticism. It’s nice if someone can play fast or complex pieces. The main thing is how it makes you feel. There’s plenty of shredding to nowhere emotionally by players who think it’s all a race to the finish. Meanwhile, Fripp is a fabulous player for many reasons. So is Gilmour. There’s no need to choose between them when both can be enjoyed endlessly.
Thank you very much, I love you’ve liked it. I hope the translator has worked correctly, so I agree with you to the point about the melody. Once again thanks, you’re very kind.
Thank you very much Norie, you’re very kind. I’m gonna have a look at the FB Page and, once again, thanks for your loyalty to this channel. Nice to hear from you.
Steve is the only guitarist who can play these parts with such feeling and emotion as if every note made all the difference in the world. No substitute.
The original clip from The Musical Box and Phil Collins is edited that way (as you can see in the attached link), so I decided to do the same with Genetics and Hackett, to get the final result at the same point.
BBT are outstanding and the brass ensemble is a big part of their unique and highly emotional sound. You really need to hear them live. Thanks to you for putting this together is marvellous to hear this compilation.
Thank you very much, you’re right. It’s been a really “three ways pleasure”: enjoyng again their magnetic music, compiling their outstanding contribution and also edting the clip. Your kind coment makes me feel very grateful. Once again, thank you very much.
Love those chords in Yours Is No Disgrace.. He had a great Hammond to boot!! Tony's work is primarily what attracted me to YES. "Then" is one of the most unique YES songs.. Kaye is basically Bruford on the Hammond in that song.
I love Mike's music for more than 40 years. This Crises finale is one of my favorite parts, a in live performance is spectacular, of course with Simon's drum part. Simon also has a nice part in Monut Teide, or at least one of my favorite parts...
Thank you very much, you’re very kind. I love you’ve liked it because all what I want is to make you feel as happy as i got while doing it. Thanks again.
That was a great time, it remains a great song from the best Rock group ever. His voice was so unique and remained unique. Seems like a nice person despite his success.
You’re completely right. I’m looking foward True, his next album with new material and with the band that’s been touring with him, The Geeks. I think it’ll be be this August. We’re gonna be lucky enough, once more, with the gift of his music and, of course, his voice.
Fripp's solo on Eno's ''Babys on Fire'' is impossible to achieve by any other guitarist.. and is possibly the greatest solo ever recorded. Dave is great, but he's not SYD!
Simply ,king crimson bored me since larks tongue ,no musicals stuffs after ....same PF after dark side ,too much heavy hammering bass ,never tried to listen after ...
The issue here is not both guitarists, of course, It's fans, specially Gilmour's, they're much more and don't have any idea of playing guitar or what's like another band not being Pink Floyd
Would make little sense if every guitar player on seeing a few youtube comments that another guitar player sounded good, immediately changed everything so they sounded like the other. Can you imagine if every guitarist sounded like Gilmour? It would be as bad as when you search for "For the love of god cover" and you see a heap of guitarists often with Jems trying to ape Steve Vai. Some better than others, but very few ever getting beyond that trap of emulating someone else. There's no point being the 2nd person to play a piece of music - certainly not while the original one is still playing it regularly themselves. And really Gilmour has a career that's based on 2, perhaps 3 guitar solos - he's lucky enough to have been around at a time when the rewards for that were significant - but the vast majority of the creative output of Pink Floyd was done by 2 other guys - and, Gilmour was lucky to have been in bands with them or shortly after them. In fact, a lot of the best guitar playing on the wall is either another guitarist or the creative output of another guitarist copied by Gilmour. Whereas Fripp has a significantly greater role in the creative output of King Crimson. Dunno, I always think the fact Gilmour basically has to go around playing the Comfortably numb solo and Vai has to keep repeating FTLOG to be something of an albatross around their necks. I'm already sick of hearing it decades ago so I can't imagine how Vai feels now. Does he not wish he'd written something after P&W that people wanted to hear? I guess Tender Surrender is one, but that's about it. Although I guess you could argue the same is true today of King Crimson - their last few tours were most definitely just playing the existing popular stuff, but they've reinvented themselves a number of times during their career moving in a completely different creative direction - and still proven if not vastly popular, certainly a significant band. It would have been easier for them to copy 21st Century for another 5 or 10 albums, but they didn't - and if I were Gilmour I'd be more envious of the 80s and 90s output of KC whilst I was still touring 'Comfortably numb and WYWH" than I would be envious of Gilmour having to do yet another tour playing comfortably numb even though ostensibly he's kidding himself he has a new album out - if he tours on the back of it people are mostly going to go to see him playing his famous 2.5 guitar solos. Not the least because the guitarist that Roger Water gets to play these solos is better that Gilmour.
No way, doesn't make sense a competition, as a guitar player too (since decades) i love em and recognize as told someone down in comments they're the best in their field
