"Harlequin"

Wonder if Marillion have heard this one?

I am the harlequin - diamonded costume dripping shades of green

I wonder if Macca's longer songs count as Prog?

Rinse the Raindrops might. It mentions birds of paradise. That sounds like a Prog thing to do.

Despite Repeated Warnings might. It has lots of different bits to it.

Last one!

"The Fountain of Salmacis"

Oh, this is the result of a private eduction isn't it?

Band on the Run?

It sounds like it's about to end.

I think it might be a false ending.

I think he's just making the words up as he goes along, again.

Panning of keyboard... bass solo.....

It's ended.

Of course this is quite short at 39:30 minutes.




Maybe we should do the 94 minute double concept album The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway next?

This is a complete rip of Marillion's Grendel!

I preferred that to the Barclay James Harvest album because it had more welly and Peter Gabriel has more vocal character than whoever was singing on the BJH album.

That doesn't mean it's my bag though. Everything meandered around too much for my liking and I didn't hear a lot of self-revelation going on.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it.

Plodding augmented fourths or whatever that prog chord is...

And it's over. Now to look back and see whatever everyone else made of it.

Can we do something disco next time?

Prog Disco?
