@cherryaimless @JohnP5269 The set list wasn’t as good as Wings Over America, but they were excellent. Opening with Got to get you into my life was genius. The crowd went mad.

@MikeCSNYfan @JohnP5269 My one doleful regret is never seeing Wings.

@cherryaimless @JohnP5269 Newcastle upon Tyne City Hall in December 1979. Their last UK tour. The band were promoting Back to the Egg and a set list including many numbers from the McCartney album. Lots of highlights.

Great version with Crosby

@TheProgCorner Yes Jon Anderson Genesis Peter Gabriel Steve Hackett Moody Blues Justin Hayward Rush Marillion Greg Lake

Introduce yourself with ten bands you’ve seen live: Yes Genesis Led Zeppelin Pink Floyd Iron Maiden Rush King Crimson Kansas Nirvana Styx

While you still can, follow the British Indian Ocean Territory (Chagos Islands) Administration on @BIOTGov UK Government still hoping to implement crackpot plan that would see defence funds used to pay Mauritius to take sovereignty over the islands. A deal which doesn't help the wronged islanders, needlessly annoys the US and helps China while UK taxpayer is footing the bill.

@JohnP5269 Must keep a look out for that one.

@MikeCSNYfan It’s on Eagle Rock so it’s legit

Chazza purchase today. 4 for £1

@JohnP5269 Live even 😂

@JohnP5269 The Kossof looks very interesting. Bootleg or legit love? Not seen it before.

RSD Peter Gabriel purchase. Fantastic song fully deserving the RSD treatment. Get this if you can. @itspetergabriel

My first UK 12 inch single purchase was Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. American Girl. Fantastic track. It’s now 50 years later and I picked up at RSD this fantastic Live Album. Using the same cover as the 12 inch. I’m so happy 😀 @tompetty

Great song by Joni and one of my favourite bands - CSN youtu.be/ITzhEQwnkOU

@KaleviHeinoFI Bought on the day of release and given away the day afterwards. IMO It’s just not that good. Try Trick of the Tail or Duke instead.

#NowPlaying Genesis • Abacab (1981) Now it would have been quite dull if the band had simply made photocopy replicas of FOXTROT ever since the year of 1972, right? On ABACAB some of you may hear a band removed far away from its progressive rock days. I hear something else👇

@JohnP5269 You always get good finds. Impressive. I must get my Kiki Dee cd out and have a listen to all those classic singles.

@MikeCSNYfan They are. All in immaculate condition too.

Chazza finds today. Kiki lp is a compilation of early singles some of which are northern soul classics. Elvis and Graham Parker CDs are stuffed with extras and Al is a 2 disc deluxe version with bonus live disc. £4 the lot

@JohnP5269 Classic Song and Classic Album cover.

#nowplaying Rush “Fly By Night”

As a footnote to Physical Graffiti, I thought you might like to hear the original home demo, recorded in my studio at Plumpton Place of a piece of music that was going to surface as 10 Years Gone. I presented this rough mix to the band at Headley Grange in order to do this for real. Robert Plant came up with some lyrics for my music that were extraordinary and then we arrive at the song 10 Years Gone. youtu.be/2o-SBDC8v0g

@primarily_prog 5 definite classics there and hard to choose. Yes best album. Peter Gabriel best song 🎵 with Solsbury Hill - although Awaken comes close.

Back to 1977 for today’s listening …
