Post by: Techno on 10 February 2019, 12:04:48 PM
That's another Wishbone Ash album title. :P

Just want to make sure this works OK...and I don't get error messages.

The fight is done and over
Neither lost, neither won
To cast away the fury of the battle
And turn my weary eyes for home"

An ode to wargamers everywhere :D

Yep, Mike.... :)

From what I think is one of the really classic albums of the seventies. "Argus"...(I was actually listening to that this week.)

Will... we know your Dad liked Pink Floyd.....So that doesn't surprise me, at all. ;) ;D ;D ;D

I only saw them, the once. (The original line up.)

They were rather good. :)

My father told me that Wishbone Ash were all Satanists and in league with the Cloven-Hoofed One. Anyone listening to them would go to Hell.*

I listened to a track from a friend's album and, well, here I am.

Aha....We're on to Fleetwood Mac albums now, are we :D

Found myself listening to The Incredible String Band last night. "Mountain of God" from "Wee Tam and the Big Huge" - there's a rave from the grave!

I like both Camel and Yes.  :)

One of the Yes bootlegs I've got, has a great typo.
Apparently Ian Anderson is on vocals.

The person that wrote that must be as 'Thick as a brick'.

Is it true that the Incredible String Band had a tribute act called the Incredible String Vest?

Also apocryphal that Half Man Half Biscuit has a tribute band called It Ain't  Half Man Mum.

OK, Bolden, how did you do it?

I think you have been doubly blessed already.  :P

Important notice: given the pop song theme in this thread, I need to emphasize that I do not refer to you as barely seventeen and barely dressed.

Half Man, Half Biscuit ?

I can remember a certain Dave Andrews liking 'Half Man Half Biscuit'.....When I worked 'there'.

Von picked up a faceache post by an other old colleague, this morning, that Trish Morrison (as was then) had posted.
Rotten sod..... I don't remember ever seeing that pic. I look like I'm trying to grow a beard and moustache, and leaning on Colin Dixon......With one of the twins in the background. Can't tell which one, as I can only see the eyes. (Blank me..... That must be 30 years ago, now.....No wonder I feel so bloody old. :'( :'( :'()

Cheers - Phil (Listening to 'Dust & Dreams' by Camel, as I plonk.)
