Chris Andrews SONG OF THE WEEK “You Won’t Be Seeing Me Anymore” by Tim Andrews w/Gordon Haskell https://timchrisandrews.bandcamp.com/track/you-wont-be-seeing-me-anymore  The late, great musician Gordon Haskell is often noted for his role in an early incarnation of King Crimson. However, beyond that he was a prolific singer-songwriter who, after years as a “starving folksinger,” found success in the 90s with the hit single “How Wonderful You Are” and the platinum album HARRY’S BAR. Before all those successes he worked with Chris Andrews (a.k.a. Tim Andrews) in the “freakbeat” band Fleur de Lys, springboard for the careers of Pete Sears (Jefferson Starship) and guitar hero Bryn Haworth.

In 1967 Gordon wrote and played bass and guitar on “You Won’t Be Seeing Me Anymore.” The track was recorded in London, but it has a folk-pop California sound that could’ve come from Laurel Canyon or San Francisco. On a cosmic jukebox this would play next to It’s A Beautiful Day (“White Bird”) and Love. The lyrics are aboutseasonal love, coming from a young man who travels for a long time and leaves his troubled sweetheart behind. 

The track was produced by Paul Clay (Ace Kefford, Sharon Tandy, early Yes) and Mike Noble (Joan Armatrading, Fleur de Lys, John Kongos). It was the B-side of “Sad Simon Lives Again,” Tim’s first solo single after he’d signed with renowned producer, promoter, and music executive Tony Hall (who’d plugged The Beatles, Carmen McRae, and inked Black Sabbath’s first record deal). Tim later reverted to his real name Chris and went on as a solo act and a collaborator with Roger Daltrey, David Essex, and Davy Jones (Monkees). Meanwhile, enjoy this rare track:

Fantástica "Journey" de Duncan Browne, una de las canciones escogidas por Paul Weller para "Find El Dorado". Browne publicó su debut “Give Me Take You" para Immediate en 1968, cinco años más tarde el sello RAK de Mickie Most sacó el LP homónimo "Duncan Browne", que es donde viene "Journey". Mediados los 70 formó con Peter Godwin y Sean Lyons el singular grupo Metro. Browne sólo participó en su primer LP, uno de los mejores de la década en UK. Cuando Duncan salió del metro lanzó otros dos interesantes álbumes en solitario y a partir de ese momento su pista se fue perdiendo.

Lo que ya hubiera sido el colmo es que Weller hubiese incluido "No Need" de Gordon Haskell, canción que musicalmente le pega mucho. Pero quién soy yo, pobre mortal, para sugerir tal cosa!

reviews i made bc i'm bored

PROGRESSIVE ROCK SUITE REVIEW #1: Lizard by King Crimson.

Length: 23:19

Title track of "Lizard". Not "unlistenable", as Fripp had said, but really a great song, I'd rate it 9/10. The vocals couldn't be done better by someone other than Jon. And the drums are even better in the same section, "Prince Rupert Awakes". My favorite part of this suite. It seems that people tend to forget the talents of Andy McCulloch in the one album that he was on. A very underrated lineup with Keith Tippet included, beautiful piano playing. The only downside for anyone could be the length. It's fairly long, so I wouldn't recommend it for people new to the genre. 

Lineup of-

Robert Fripp: Guitar, Mellotron, Electric Keyboards and Devices

Mel Collins: Flute & Saxes

Gordon Haskell: Bass Guitar & Vocals

Andy McCulloch: Drums

Peter Sinfield: Words & Pictures

with 

Robin Miller: Oboe & Cor Anglais

Mark Charig: Cornet

Nick Evans: Trombone

Keith Tippet: Piano & Electric Piano

Jon Anderson of YES: Vocals on ‘Prince Rupert Awakes’

PROGRESSIVE ROCK SUITE REVIEW #2: Close To The Edge by YES.

Length: 18:38

Close to The Edge - one of YES' greatest suites. Close to the Edge is considered a must-listen for all progressive rock fans, showcasing the band's musical ability and power to create long and complex compositions. Great for people new to the genre. A solid 10/10, Close to The Edge is a masterpiece, showcasing all members of the band. Though not his "greatest" work, the last YES album Bruford was on as the drummer of YES was their last with a drummer who was a legend in prog, who broke the boundary between jazz and rock. Close To The Edge, in which this suite is the title track, is the first album to feature Howe using a steel lap guitar and proves his proficiency in all variations of the instrument. This album was their greatest, in my opinion. With its intricate rhythm and strong melody, it's truly a timeless masterpiece.

Drums, Percussion: Bill Bruford

Bass Guitar & Backing Vocals: Chris Squire

Engineer & Producer: Eddie Offord(A producer famous for his work with YES and Emerson, Lake, & Palmer.)

Lead Vocals: Jon Anderson

Keyboards: Rick Wakeman

Electric Guitar & Backing Vocals: Steve Howe

PROGRESSIVE ROCK SUITE REVIEW #3: Tarkus by Emerson, Lake, and Palmer (aka ELP). Length: 20:43 I truly believe ELP hit their peak with Tarkus. Tarkus is a side-long story of the armadillo-war tank hybrid on the cover of the album. I would rate it 9/10, for its complexity in music, but it is very long, making it somewhat of a chore to listen to for people newer to prog. Keith Emerson exhibits his mastery of the keyboard through his extremely large modular moog synthesizer, allowing for a wide range of sounds. Palmer’s drumming is also impressive, showing his ability to play complex time signatures and handle rhythm changes well. The suite has many sections, each with its own theme and mood. These pieces are different, yet flow into one another perfectly. If you want to explore progressive rock, Tarkus is essential. It combines rock, classical music, and innovative sounds perfectly.

Drums: Carl Palmer

SS Arthur M Anderson: "Fitzgerald, this is the Anderson. Have you checked down?"

SS Edmund Fitzgerald: "Yes we have."

Anderson: "Fitzgerald, we are about 10 miles behind you, and gaining about 1 1/2 miles per hour. Fitzgerald, there is a target 19 miles ahead of us. So the target would be 9 miles on ahead of you."

Fitzgerald: "Well, am I going to clear?"

A: "Yes. He is going to pass to the west of you."

F: "Well, fine."

A: "By the way, Fitzgerald, how are you making out with your problem?"

F: "We are holding our own."

A: "Okay, fine. I'll be talking to you later."

The crew of the Edmund Fitzgerald would never speak to anyone outside of the ship again. After the Fitzgerald entered a squall and was obscured from the Anderson's radar. Some time shortly thereafter the Edmund Fitzgerald sank with all hands aboard.

proto-crimson was crazy this book makes it sound (delightfully) like fripp was just having fun ruining relationships. he "tempted away" gordon haskell from a really good backing band job he had by suggesting they join a band together that he ended up not passing the audition for and then the band flopped. he made ian and his girlfriend break up because at the time she was the vocalist for what would end up being kc and fripp invited her to spend the weekend at his parents house (???) once and she agreed and went there and then left because he was "strange" and it felt weird and like a "boyfriend-girlfriend thing". and according to peter giles he basically kicked him out of the band he was in with his own brother. "the thing of fripp offering to leave is just a ploy [...] fripp is very cute with political moves." "we'd always dreamt of making our music."

The Classic Era Grue Crew go B-I-G for this episode! Yes, it’s time for some Bert I. Gordon! For the Decades of Horror’s fourth excursion into BIG territory, the crew crawls all over Earth vs. the Spider (1958), also known as The Spider. Gordon uses his usual visual effects techniques to achieve the “50 tons of creeping black horror” as advertised, and, as usual, scales may vary. Gordon gets an assist from Paul Blaisdell with a hairy spider leg and a desiccated body. Throw in a fearless high school girl and her dumb boyfriend, their 35-year-old classmate, their science teacher, a goofy sheriff, and a brawny construction foreman, and viewers get exactly what they expect in a B.I.G. extravaganza. What a fun talkabout!

At the time of this writing, Earth vs. the Spider (1958) is available to stream from the Classic Sci-Fi Movie Channel, the Classic Horror Movie Channel, Wicked Horror TV, Shudder, AMC+, Prime, Tubi, and Crackle. The film is available on physical media as a Blu-ray disc from Shout Factory.
