Ok, here is what I know. Once upon a time, many moons ago, Dreamsville was a vibrant community of music aficionados from around the world. Many made music and they shared their output in our little musical challenges / projects. Times changed. Families happened. Free time and frivolity faded away. People died. Jobs and locations changed. I love hearing from Brooksie, Eric/Bob - Electric Angels, Carole (our resident poet), and now if I do not mention everyone, they may be offended. Crap. I think John Izzard moved from France to Wales. Dar is in the desert SW. I have lost track of Mondo. Wadcorp does my holiday cards. Alec seems to be holding up the American continency with posts and insights. Hairy Vike just disappeared. The Stasi still owes us a greatest hits collection. Lucky Spinner is still in rotation at my house / car. Astro Boy on the Planet of the Amazon Women has taken a new meaning to me, as Amazon has eaten up the digital marketplace. Maybe the worse thing to come out of Seattle. Starbucks maybe second. KEXP maybe the best. [I dj'd when it was KCMU on the UW campus forever ago.] My current fav music - sorry Bill - is J-Pop. Curse you, Alec! Some of the videos are just too cool!

Andy George. Wadcorp. Where are they?

Really??.......

Alec: I felt I was spending way too much time here. Not getting much feedback on posts, so I’ve been hanging out more on the wine-centric site I’d been neglecting. Will be popping in from time to time, but not loitering all day. .

Bryan Ferry - A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall [Official]

Ha, funny I was a kid when I heard/saw the Heaven and Hell album and my mom bought it for me (I was a Yes fan). It didn't make sense until several years later when I heard China and it all came together. Have been collecting anything with his stamp on it since then. We now have to live "after Vangelis" but with the many years of music since Forminx in the mid-sixties we have very little to complain about.

Hearts of Space is running a program dedicated to the music of Vangelis. You can listen for free all day Sunday: https://v4.hos.com/this-week/program

Here's another - Is the act of creation in the end an act of murder, since its end result is death? And are love songs, stories, etc. accessories to the act?

@merikan1 Yes it's a pretty tough watch, but so powerful.

🤨 When did that happen? Sometimes I feel something like snobbish take over, but it’s too draining to prop it up for long.

I can't wait to hear "Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend ".

CLIFFDIVER - Oh Bondage, Up Yours! ...Better than the original?...don't know about that, I love the original version and X-Ray Spex. This is a really great version by Cliffdiver, though and I really like the faster pace...and a neat little guitar solo, to boot..😎 BTW, Cliffdiver bass player, Tyler Rogers, was almost killed in a freak car-accident three or four days ago...Thankfully, after losing around 4 pints of blood, having his carotid artery punctured and his jugular lacerated and fractures in his neck, following emergency surgery and intensive care, he is out of danger and stable and latest news looks like he's now out of hospital and back home. So a speedy recovery and best wishes to him...Hope you're back playing with the band very soon Tyler and able to tour in July. Tyler Rogers, recovering following emergency surgery.

Yep, same here..👍

Thanks for helping me ponder on that which I try to ignore.

For some reason for the past several years, when I’ve read the name Alan White, I think of him in the ‘Gimme Some Truth’ documentary, specifically the moment when he said, “The cans” referring to the headphones he was wearing. I guess the full sentence had to do with needing the volume louder. Another artist of renown leaves us.

It really is very good..😎

@paul.smith in total agreement about that song. I was listening to her albums several times from the beginning of C19.

Great actor. Seriously creepy in Hanna. RIP

He filled possibly the biggest prog drummer's shoes in Bill Bruford and made the role of Yes drummer his own.

We saw him several times with Yes. Great drummer. He had a great career and played with many of the biggest artists of the time. RIP

Anyone who missed Glasto this year, you have until midnight on Saturday to catch up on iPlayer here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b007r6vx/glastonbury There's some good stuff on there. I'd recommend Elbow, Herbie Hancock, Little Dragon, Metronomy, St Vincent, Snarky Puppy and Wolf Alice (though there is a nasty volume drop out on one of their songs).

😮

I’ve noticed something confusing along those lines as well. The actual posts are in order though, correct? It’s just when we post it doesn’t seem like we’re posting after the newest?

Speak soon Alan.
