Pink Floyd and prog rock are not as compatible as one might think though there are similarities. First band I got into after them was Yes, which is quite different but I took to what they did immediately. There's more Floyd influence in recent prog, especially bands like Marillion and Porcupine Tree,

It's got great songs, but I think they were better served as part of the live performance. The album just on it's own sounds a little flat compared to Dark Side of the Moon or Wish You Were Here.

I think the show is a lot better than the movie, but you did yourself a favor by watching it first.

I like the movie too, but I read about two pages of the original graphic novel and knew right away how different the movie was, and how "Hollywood" it had become. Then again, it could have been even worse as I read that Paramount wanted to do it with Michael Jackson in the lead.

I had a similar experience a few years ago watching the DVD's I had. The animation was crude in those early years, but they got at something much deeper than I think they were even being lauded for at the time.

Re-discovering King Crimson through listening to the Road to Red and Starless box sets. I can't think of live recordings I became more drawn into than those shows. Uncompromising, raw and primal, probably more than not just any prog rock band, but any group of musicians in the 20th century.

Dudamel got national attention for awhile (I remember a profile of his on 60 Minutes), but it hasn't sustained. I wonder if the show will reflect that later on.

I finished it (as well as the 1st season of The Americans since I had a brain fart for some reason and stopped watching mid-way through) and was quite impressed. I mentioned in a previous article being worried about how the pilot leaned on the sex, but I was somewhat relieved to see it turned down a bit throughout the

Then you might like some of the other albums on the list, too.

I liked the pilot, my only concern was that it kind of leaned in on the sex too much. My guess, however, was that it wouldn't be the case for every episode, and this review seems to reflect that.

Top 5 albums 1. Pink Floyd - The Endless River 2. Tim Bowness - Abandoned Dancehall Dreams 3. David Crosby - Croz. 4. Opeth Pale Communion. 5. Anathema - Distant Satellites.

With a name like his, what could possibly go wrong?

What's funny to me is that the show seems more family-oriented, but the stuff at the office was something that felt more at home on something like Cheers, which makes it more of an amalgamation of more than just the family-friendly stuff like Full House.

Love this show. Everybody else hits on why it's so good so I won't repeat it, but it surprised even me with it's quality because I liked the promo spots, which I figured was as good as it got. Plus the A-list voice talent, some of which caught me completely by surprise. Really hope you guys review next season, the

He had the pipes for radio (I do like "Ride Like The Wind") but unfortunately a face for it too.

He still is.

The MTV book has quite a bit devoted to Fincher during that time. It's amazing the guy who did the "head in the box" movie started his career doing videos for Christopher Cross.

Has there ever been a better final album than Abbey Road?

But there is a movie about Martin Luther King coming out soon, and that has me a little worried. Not so much that the studio will pull it, since the KKK (or the other myriad merry bands of hate groups in this country) clearly has no weapons of mass destruction, but if those people do make good on any kind of threat

Are the old school seasons still in syndication? I'd love it if they got them on Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc.
