Wot prog you playing today?

I had a real shitola thrifting morning today.

As if this record-collecting hobby is not difficult enough, but then along comes a crusty old basket as tenacious as yerself... This cunt must be waiting outside the thrift store one hour beefwhore opening time. And that is all it takes to ruin yer vinyl pickings.

It's a no win sitchuashun. I knos that were I to come, say 10 minutes earlier than him, sure as Perry Como is shit, this basket will be 10 minutes earlier next time.

Being first in line is critical in this pathetic vinyl-collecting game. Consider the odds:

1/ In this particular chazza there is always only 3 crates of records.

2/ On a good day maybe 30 records will be brought in. And these likely to be Como, Nana, Englebert and Streisand.

3/ Of course for convenience/laziness sake these 30 records will be placed by the store employee at the front.

4/ Now, all it takes the avid collector/vulture to have is 30 FUCKING SECONDS on you and you can be sure most everything is scooped up. (If your lucky he might feel disposed to leave you the crumbs , or - on examination - put back the poor condition copies.)


So, you understand, its all stacked against you.


This morning was particularly bad. The basket pulls out, right before my eyes , an original Canadian press (with textured foc) King Crimson first lp (which you just never see here anymore). Then, as if God is putting the fuck to me, I pull ANOTHER copy! Yep. You guessed it - my copy is original also but the condition is vg-vgfuckin minus! Cocksucker!

All I managed to get today was 2 records I don't have in my collectro, and never really wanted:

DAVID GILMOUR - SAME
and
PINK FLOYD'S shittay MOMENTARY LAPSE OF REASON (which might as well be another Gilmour solo lp)

Oh how thoroughly crap this hobby is.

Conceive yourself coated in tar and you will image one half my torment.

Oh yeah, that wasn't the worst of it. The basket "finds" an ONKYO amp for $15. (An amp he likely hid the previous day -when it wasn't 30%-off-seniors.)

This is dentist waitingroom music.

Sure your average diehard YESfan will be hiding his disconsolate-ness deep inside; biting his tongue at the reality of wot really is happening here - the wheels coming off the runaway vehicle.

Cocksuckers don't deserve me.


Well, what can I say? Prog is the Light in your eye, the beat of heart.
Starts off with WONDERFUL orchestra piece.

You have all the hits" here - sung in English this time. (I have a Lugano '74)

This is the BAG of Sammy.
If you disagree and think that a band that's been around for decades is no deal then fox off.

SUNTREADER - THE VOYAGE

"Recordings from the mid 70's redicovered in 2000.


Morris David Brough Pert (8 September 1947 – 27 April 2010) was a Scottish composer, drummer/percussionist, and pianist who composed in the fields of both contemporary classical and jazz-rock music.

Morris Pert was born and raised in Arbroath Scotland where he played in percussion, folk and rock bands and began to compose. He gained a Trinity College diploma in piano performance in 1967 and a Bachelor of Music degree from Edinburgh University in 1969. He then studied in London on a scholarship at the Royal Academy of Music with Alan Bush and James Blades.

As a rock musician Pert spent two years (1970–1972) with Japanese percussionist Stomu Yamashta as a member of his ensembles "East Wind" and "Red Buddha Theatre". In 1971 he founded the group "Come to the Edge" with Robin Thompson and Andrew Powell. After personnel changes in 1973 this band became "Sun Treader" (or "Suntreader") and recorded two albums. In 1977 Pert joined the jazz-rock band Brand X for their second album, composing three numbers for their Masques album. He stayed with the band, touring extensively, until 1979.

As a session musician he played with many musicians, including Paul McCartney, Andrew Lloyd Webber, John Williams, Kate Bush, Mike Oldfield, Sally Oldfield, Peter Gabriel, Peter Hammill, Jon Anderson, Elvis Costello, Bryan Ferry and Talk Talk."
