More Music...
Two CDs added to the play list today:
Esperanto - Last Tango (1975) A band with lots of talent and a very unique sound, Esperanto only got 3 albums out before succumbing to the pressures of the record biz. Okay, maybe I'm being a bit over-dramatic again; but you get the point. Last Tango, maybe their best, is a mix of styles of music; and yet it all fits as if it were one piece of music. When I first started this stream back in the 90's (I just had to say that, it sounds soooo cool) I had ripped my vinyl to bring this to you. Somehow, it disappeared from the stream. It's back now, without the pops, scratches and hum. Thank you Ebay. There are now Japanese and Korean CDs available of this album.
Porcupine Tree - Deadwing (2005) Porcupine Tree is easily one of the best prog rock bands playing today. Whereas most prog bands focus almost entirely on guitar, PT builds classic song structures with solos important but not the focus; just like the great bands of the seventies.
