Firth Of Fifth? Message-ID: Hi! Syrinx: >1971). Albums to check out: Selling England By The Pound (is there a >greater progressive song in history than Firth Of Fifth?), Foxtrot Uh... well... don't want to start another discussion, but hell, you will start discussions here by just saying "hello", so WTF... I guess I could tell you *several dozens* of greater prog songs than Firth Of Fifth. It starts with one of the absolutely greatest piano intros of all time, agreed, but unfortunately the rest of the song is terribly boring IMHO. What about the real killers from this album like Cinema Show? But I guess it's just a matter of taste. I like the more powerful and crazy stuff, that's one of the reasons why Genesis' fragile art rock never worked for me as good as something like Relayer from Yes, Gentle Giant's mid-70s material, or just anything that this Long Island based band we all know put out since 1989.

If someone made you feel that way, (s)he is an asshole. Anyway, the RIAA are kind of a police unit for the music biz. They make a big deal out of little things like mp3s and generally make themselves a nuisance. You can learn more if you read the fuckin' FAQ! Heh heh, just kiddin'. :o) The internet might be a good source tho. Okie, I've got a question for other jammers. Does the RIAA only handle matters relating to America or are they global?

Now, this was back in the time when I was still a full blown metal-fanatic when I still thought Savatage was a wuss-metal band, but I found Clutching at Straws in the used bin at the local CD shoppe one day and used the "good faith" method of picking up a recommend from the 'jam. I went into it under the idea that it was going to be like old 80's pop, but holy @#$%. Even then I really got my jollies off of that album. The opening "Hotel Hobbies" trilogy left me rather speechless. I think what caught me the most off of the whole thing was Fish's intricate wordplay. IMO, Fish is one of the most amazing lyricists (not to mention singers) I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. Fish can just put what he's thinking straight into prose somehow. I love it. :) As far as older Marillion, I still like it alot, but I'm a Fish-era listener mostly. hehehe. -- KorgX3 is gonna go light a campfire.
