Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:10pm listener james from westwood:

Fairly certain I first heard this epic on Bill Kelly's show in like the mid-’90s, while driving around, and just extended my trip and listened in complete awe.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:10pm Julie:

ah late night listener, welcome back!

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:30pm Julie:

my older sisters had a different QMS album, it is hard to imagine ANY of them listening to this stuff
Avatar ♥ 3:31pm TDK60:

A rumor from back then, Q.M.S., if sharing the stage with other well-known bands, would blow everyone else away.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:31pm Julie:

I've been watching Maid, makes me want to go to the PNW

Hi, David.

I learned two things from the VU doc -
Bill Graham hated them and Moe Tucker hated hippies
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:36pm Rich in Washington:

I think Moe still hates hippies.

Yes, that was me. Thanks for playing! Thanks to the artists, rebels of S.F.

Ah, OK, Julie -- I should have cut Google out of the mix. I am giving myself 10 Hurst demerits.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:56pm Julie:

Please tell K8 I'm sorry I didn't make the show, I've been a sickly mess but hopefully soon!

Avatar 🦇 ♥ 3:59pm Bas NL:

Once i went to see LPD in Amsterdam. I was a bit early and on entering i asked if i was at the right place -no visitors to be seen. I have a reservation.. 'Ah, then you are Bas! Step right in and sit down at the dinner table.' It was great fun talking with the LPD! They'd signed me a nice poster. Concert was great. Full of energy.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:59pm Julie:

Had to get them in after neglecting them for the bird show!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:00pm Julie:

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:10pm Julie:

i am so happy to see all the little drums, you guys!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:12pm Rich in Bay Ridge:

So it's a drum?
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:13pm Julie:

it says 5 more minutes is it coming back??
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:13pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia:

Oh, this is the CD... there's a secret track coming up!
Avatar 🦇 ♥ 4:13pm Bas NL:

(insert us applauding)
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:14pm Handy Haversack:

I knew about the secret track!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:14pm Julie:

yeah it's a drum.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:15pm Rich in Bay Ridge:

I do love the silence...waiting for the secret track
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:16pm Julie:

silence on THIS end...well..panic
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:16pm Summer and Michael and Sylvia:

Sorry about the unintended suspense, Julie!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:17pm WR:

for some reason on computer the drum is odd looking, on phone (android at least) it looks better.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:18pm Rich in Bay Ridge:

On my PC the drum looks like a weird, toothy hellbeast
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:18pm Julie:

yay for the hellbeast!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:18pm WR:

PS great "secret track".
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:18pm Rich in Bay Ridge:

Used to have the Circus Maximus album; a friend spilled pancake syrup on it accidentally
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:37pm woj:

haha that was coincidence this time - finally got around to lunch and a much needed shower and came back to battle of trees!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:38pm Julie:

oh no, syrup!
Avatar ♥ 4:40pm TDK60:

Love the early jazzy-rocky.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:40pm Wendy del Formaggio:

Hi Julie! I love this Circus Maximus track. Now I'm trying to figure out where I know it from, because it's an OLD memory. Possibly from when I used to tape WFMU to bring back to VT with me, in the pre-Internet days.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:40pm Handy Haversack:

And here we go!

Sorry, everyone!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:41pm Handy Haversack:

great sets, Julie
  4:41pm ike-o:

peace Nd greetings all!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:41pm Julie:

Hi Wendy! I definitely heard it first on WFMU, inspired me to buy the CD! Hiya IKE!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:42pm woj:

there's what? one short marillion song? kayleigh?
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:42pm Handy Haversack:

Really, though, woj, that whole album blends song to song, so ... kind of?
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:42pm Julie:

@sylvia as I was putting the show together I found a lot of long songs that didn't need to be. Like if you're doing over 6 minutes, you need to go somewhere, and some were just...extra long with no real journey. Hopefully the stuff I chose is good. I had to cut a few good ones too :(
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:43pm Handy Haversack:

But there are long songs and then there are eighteen-minute retellings of Beowulf from Grendel's POV based on a John Gadner novel!
Avatar ♥ 4:43pm TDK60:

I saw their singer a few years back, now going by Fish.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:43pm chris in the redwoods:

this is indeed an epic track
Avatar 4:44pm Sylvia:

yeah, I hear you and I agree, Julie
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:44pm Julie:

this is off their first EP was it on an LP as well?
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:45pm Julie:

the other two songs on it are short ones
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:45pm woj:

i completely support epic retellings of epics as epic song!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:45pm Julie:

I was surprised how late this band is, I thought for sure they were from the 70s
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:45pm Handy Haversack:

He always did, TDK60. I had his first couple of solo albums, which had some good stuff on them.

The only LP it was on was a B-sides collection (B'Sides Themselves; I love you, Marillion).
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:45pm Handy Haversack:

Prog came late to Scotland.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:46pm woj:

prog songs may be long but their legs are short and they couldn't get over hadrian's wall without a little help...
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:47pm Julie:

there is also a 20 minute version, bootleg live I think
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:49pm Handy Haversack:

And the Gardner novel is honestly pretty proggy. Each chapter takes on one sign of the zodiac, one problem of modern philosophy, and one method of modernist literature. Lot. Going. On. I love it.

The Dragon to Grendel: "My advice to you, my violent young friend, is to find a pile of gold, and sit on it."
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:51pm Julie:

so then they got a new singer and the sound changed? I really don't know much at all
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:53pm Handy Haversack:

Yeah, Fish left and Steve(?) Hogarth(?) came in and they tried to be poppier, I guess, and it wasn't as good. Whither the greasepaint? Whither the jesters? Whither the Grendel?
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:53pm Julie:

if Yes could do it...
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:53pm Julie:

Heck, Genesis too
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:55pm Julie:

what happened to Fish?
Avatar ♥ 4:56pm TDK60:

He still performs.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:56pm Handy Haversack:

YEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHH!

Fish had a solo career, went more consciously Scottish in his music. I think he still plays.

Wow, thanks for this Julie. K8's going to be so glad she wasn't home for it!

Poor Grendel's had an accident. So might you all.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:56pm Julie:

many many solo albums
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack:

Really gave me the boost I need to call my sister. Which I am not looking forward to. You're the best, Julie!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:57pm woj:

haven't listened to that in a long time - that ruled.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:58pm David (in London):

Now I'm back in the room, I'm going to have to put a stop to all this Scottish nonsense. Marillion were from Aylesbury. South Buckinghamshire for the win.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 4:59pm Handy Haversack:

Well, Ayrshire and Mid-Lothian are represented in the band, David. I think Scotland lays claim!
Avatar ♥ 4:59pm TDK60:

Small world dept: I saw Fish at the Fairport Convention fest.

G'day Julie & Wobbly Ones!
👍😎🎶📻🌞🌏🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:02pm David (in London):

Handy, I just checked the Wiki thing, and Aylesbury is given as the point of origin. I am now massing the doughty yeomen of Bucks to repel the Scottish claim.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:02pm Julie:

good morning Scott!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:03pm David (in London):

Ahoy Scottmeister.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:03pm Julie:

yes as says discogs, but Fish was from Scotland which is probably how that started
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:03pm Stanley:

What Scottish nonsense?
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:03pm Handy Haversack:

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:09pm Julie:

is there prog in australia? who are the progs from Oz?
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:10pm Stanley:

Hey David.
Marillion is as Aylesbury as you can get, IMO.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:11pm Scott67:

Julie, couldn't really say, not my cup of Absinthe. 👍😎
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:12pm Scott67:

Unless you play it of course!
✌😉
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:12pm Julie:

there's one called Caligula's horse LOL
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:13pm Julie:

I never see Listener Dean anymore, he was the prog-head
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:14pm Stanley:

Hi Julie - good tracks. Are we talking 45s?
Hi Scott
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:15pm Julie:

No Stanley, Caligula's Horse is an Australian prog band. Was just looking to see if I knew any names.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:16pm Scott67:

I saw some pretty random exchanges between him & others in the chat. Maybe he was over us?
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:17pm David (in London):

Stanley, this is a mind-blowing event in the history of Aylesbury:

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:17pm Scott67:

Floyd time!!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:17pm Julie:

Could be!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...I once tried to learn to play Cygnet Committee as maybe one of three diverse tunes to do in an open mic or something ...which I never did...
Yay Ummagumma.
  5:17pm Mr. Nobody:

Woohoo
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Critically Ummagumma is written off as filler or something ?? But I used to get quite out there with it as even a little kid before drugs...
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:19pm listener james from westwood:

Aaaaah, I was hoping for this track!
Avatar ♥ 5:19pm TDK60:

Richard Wright really came up with new psychedelic organ here.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:20pm Scott67:

I'm wondering what Caligula would have a horse for, fuck, marry, kill... & feast?🐴
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:21pm David (in London):

Ah Rev D. Hello. You'll appreciate the gittar on that link I posted above.
(After the conclusion of this show, obvs...)
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:22pm Julie:

heya Rev! I was so tempted to play a version of Crazy Diamond then was like oh why not something from Ummagumma
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:23pm Julie:

almost went with echoes but decided one 20 plus one was enough this week
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:23pm woj:

whoa this really zoned me right out. almost set the controls of my face to the heart of the keyboard (yes, i need a nap).
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

David iL: Oh yeah - the 5 is some of my favorite gittar. What I aspire to.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:25pm dreamyandseedy:

i put the Black Fortress of Opium live version of that PF song on a playlist i made and i listen to it all the time, so damn good!!!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Blixa Bargeld said - hey - Floyd introduced masses to the Avant garde. It's no use arguing about it.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:25pm dreamyandseedy:

which reminds me, i would love a bonus hour one day of live performances from your show
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:27pm Julie:

oooh that's an idea. I did have a collection as a premium a few years back
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:28pm Julie:

Yes the black fortress version of set the controls is special indeed..and it was a halloween show
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:28pm Julie:

someone actually emailed me because I played it too often
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:31pm Aitch:

In late, interesting playlist above
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:33pm listener james from westwood:

Oh, that Black Fortress cover of Set the Controls is a-mazing. Glad they've got a new EP.
  5:33pm Frankm:

Loving today's show!!!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:34pm dreamyandseedy:

oh my god, how dare they!!!! lol
wow i didn't even realize that BFoO track was from 2021, that's so exciting
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:36pm Julie:

Hiya Aitch, Hey Frankm, thank you!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:40pm dreamyandseedy:

what is the best way to follow BFoO? their bandcamp doesn't look up to date
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:41pm Julie:

Ajda told me they would be putting the new one up when it comes out, so I would go and follow them there. it's been a while!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:42pm Julie:

Release will be 10/29, so 10 days
Avatar ♥ 5:44pm TDK60:

Elton could boogie back then. His live in NYC album from '71 (?) showed this too.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:44pm Julie:

ajda also has one for her solo stuff ajdatheturkishqueen.bandcamp.com...
blackfortressofopium.bandcamp.com

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:48pm Julie:

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

A Winter Solstice tune really.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:49pm Stanley:

I keep nodding off so I'd better just say thanks Julie, for the good music.

Hi Julie and all!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:04pm Julie:

hiya Will!
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:05pm David (in London):

There was a garden on Parks Street in Oxford that used to have a clutch of giant hogweeds at its edge. I used to walk past them as a kid and boggle at how massive they seemed.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:05pm chris in the redwoods:

gotta stay on top of the hogweed or it'll come back.
hey, Henry and Will.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Always appreciate exposure to the 'good' early Genesis - as it somehow has got by me. & I'm no Progophobe.
  6:09pm Peter:

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:22pm Handy Haversack:

Holy crap, thanks for that strength, Julie. That was a much more honest and productive conversation with my sister than I ever could have imagined. You were the soundtrack.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm Julie:

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:37pm Julie:

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...this is more than I woulda given the Airplane credit for @ Woodstock, in fact.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...tend to consider Woodstock a disaster that the human spirit rose above - rather than some apotheosis of a great party...
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:42pm Julie:

sunday morning 8am, they played for 100 minutes.
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...where conditions were conducive to the Musicians...
Avatar ♥ 6:42pm TDK60:

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Avatar ♥ 6:48pm TDK60:

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:48pm Handy Haversack:

Dinner is prepared but waiting on K8's return ... I gotta do a trivia thing at 7 ... so hungry ... I think alcohol is likely the best answer here.
Avatar ♥ 6:48pm LadyChanticleer:

Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:49pm chris in the redwoods:
