My favourite is Magnification. I'm a sucker for rock/orchestra fusions, ELO being the textbook example. So in many ways that album felt tailor-made to my tastes. Personally I liked it a lot more than Time and a Word, simply because I liked the songs and general production more.

^ Thanks for the info. I've only seen RW live when with Yes, at the ABWH and Yes Union tours (so that's a while back...), never on a solo tour. Might be interesting. I hope he will have some dates on the continent.

https://kentstage.org/event/rick-wak...age/kent-ohio/ The one time I saw Yes was with an orchestra and Rick Wakeman was not on that tour. The show taught me that not every song sounds better with an orchestra! Quote:
However, I am very grateful for those heady days of late night college radio. Bands like Yes, ELP, Genesis and King Crimson were the mainstream fare. I loved the nightly excursions listening to bands like Gong, Gentle Giant, Renaissance, Van Der Graaf Generator, Hoslips and countless others. The DJs would almost take on a top 40 persona when playing new artists like UK and Brand X. Oh, those were the days my friend. |
