MY favourite classical music is Chopin's 1st piano concerto-second movemnet, rachmninov paino concertos 2 and 3. I also like Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Rolling Stones, beatles , Moody Blues, Moloko, The Mediaeval Babes, Joe Cocker, The doors, Love, Yes, Crosby, Stil and Nash, neil Young, Framk Sinatra- a pretty wide range I think you'll agree

To talk to people, just blunder in smiley - smiley Almost no one bites here, and if they do just say 'Oi NNAAAOOOOOO!!!' smiley - smiley If you go to the front page, it shows the five busiest forums, there are normally loadsa people there smiley - smiley

Some good stuff there, at the mo' I am listening to Altai-Hentai, a mongolian band, doing traditional music (Last time I was in Amsterdam, we were walking through the tunnel beneath the Rijksmuseum, and they were playing there smiley - smiley Some of it reminds me of some gaelic tunes (tho' the throat singing is bizarre) I would recommend it highly smiley - smiley Well, until later....

Hi Big Al I, alicat said you were a YES fan, so I thought I'd drop in. My favorite way to meet people here has been to see who's online, check out someone's page, and drop them a line on it. That's what I'm doing here. smiley - smiley

Lightning,

Glad you flashed by, you are my favourite light-the-sky-up -type entertainment. I especially like your forked style, it is penetrative, fast, bright, fresh and exciting. YOur blanket style tends to try to do too much, it does cover a lot of ground though.

Glad you liked the entries.

There'll be another one along in a minute.

Hey, I'm replying to myself!! Came here because I didn't want to interrupt our volleyball game w/ YES talk. On what album is 'The Prophet'? I've been a fan for 20 years, have all the albums(to '79 anyways, after that I've only a few - I like the old stuff a lot more), but I can't find that song. Is this a test??!! Hey, did you know you can make your own live cd from Yes? Check out http://yesworld.com/ywimix.html . See you in the funny pages!! smiley - smiley

Cloughie,

It's on the album Time and a Word which is like me really old.

The album also has the tracks, time and a word, astral traveller

My copy is vinyl and a 1970 version with jon anderson on vocals.

Dates me a bit, well back to the volleyball, where's my head.

Oh there it is, screws head back on after the recent collision with lead balloon and leaps back into the game, passing cloughie on the way.

" Thanks for the url-YES link cloughie " he gasps out as he flashes past him.

This is a production of Big Al Enterprises and anybody copying or using bits without Big Al's signed authority written in blood will have measures taken against them which will utterly astonish them.
