Hello, Eighties_U2_Is_The_Best_!

[80sU2isBest]

Hello Everyone, thanks for the warm welcome!!

Melon, it's good to hear from ya. New philosophy, hmm...intriguing! In what way?

As for myself, I've just kept on plugging my website/multimedia development business...not many clients, but I am getting some contracts through my partnership with a graphic designer.

Musicwise, I've not listened to U2 a lot this last year. I do love "The Hands..." and mainly listen to ATYCLB and Zooropa (yes, I know!). Zooropa is nowhere near my fave U2 CD, but it is much better than my original appraisal. That song "Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car" is actually pretty deep. The groups I've been listening to the most are ASIA and ABBA and Tribe Of Judah (Gary Cherone's new band).

Yes, Bama, I caught the ELP reference, also. What is your fave CD? I liek "Black Moon".

Brain Salad Surgery



Then Trilogy.

But you didn't ask me.

That's quite okay. I don't have Brain Sald Surgery, but I always thought it was a hilarious title.

Do you get into ASIA or John Wetton?

Yes, Bama, I caught the ELP reference, also. What is your fave CD? I liek "Black Moon".

I am going to take the easy route here and say that my favorite is Rhino Records' THE BEST OF EMERSON LAKE & PALMER. Altough with most prog-rock bands I have a favorite album that I like to sit down and listen to in one sitting (Pink Floyd's WISH YOU WERE HERE comes to mind), ELP has too many great songs that stand ontheir own individually, and the BEST OF collection is the perfect set. I also like the I BELIEVE IN FATHER CHRISTMAS EP. Have either of you heard Keith Emerson's Christmas album?

~U2Alabama

No.

And what's on the Best Of? All of my ELP is on vinyl still; I only recently found BSS used on cd for cheap.


No, 80s, I never clicked with Asia, and I don't know who John Wetton is.

hey 80s! I was wondering where you had got to. Nice to see that you're still around. I am still studying up at L'Abri and doing a lot of thinking along theological lines these days.

 

[martha]

1. From The Beginning

5. Knife Edge

Ooo...I guess I need to check ebay for this used!

(These are my two favorite ELP songs, btw.)
