Ozzy Osbourne of Black Sabbath cites them as a primary influence. Lemmy of Motörhead holds them in much, much higher regard than the Stones. Matlock of the Sex Pistols loved them. George Benson, struck by "Abbey Road," immediately made his own version of the entire album. Robert Fripp decided to become a musician after hearing "A Day In The Life" on the radio, etc., etc. Does it count? more
Monstrous difference between the early works and the later ones. I adore the early ones, I detest the subsequent, where ideas are glaringly absent. Basically, once they achieved success, they haven't gotten anything right, including political predictions... What a shame, really. I'm losing hope that they will ever move me again. more

Underrated band, among the best in the rock scene in the USA, the leader Chris Robertson has talent and voice, so far two highly acclaimed albums. more
I wonder how one can define a "great man" a rich kid who has never done a damn thing in his life, who decided to go to Sardinia and whose hobby was to drink two liters of whiskey a day... No, gentlemen, the Great ones are different.... But as De Gregori said (giving it to De Andrè) "even Mussolini wrote poetry"......
And here I conclude. more
Exciting is the right word...for those who believe that emo is just a bunch of little queers with bangs today. more

Indispensable, brilliant, monumental, wild. How many wonderful musical plots he has gifted us with VDGG, perfectly contrasting with the mad and marvelous trials of the god Hammill. An exceptional saxophonist and flautist, among the top 10 of all time, in my opinion. more
I believe the second photo speaks for itself. more
