Rick N. Backer Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I shouldn't have to say it. It's pretty common knowledge to most prog fans and music fans and Yes fans that 90125 was not a proper prog rock album. I've been into this music and studied this stuff for the past 30 years or so. Bolster? Not sure about that but consensus among prog fans and Yes fans again based on my many years of being into this suggest most consider 90125 a proggish pop rock album or maybe just pure pop rock but certainly not proper prog. You my friend would be the outlier in your opinion on this(as suggested by not just the Hoffman forums but my own experience and research). I could give you a lot of "come ons" too dude. Come on. The music in and of itself isn't pretentious. It's just that was people's interpretations of it(including obviously the punk rockers). Is jazz pretentious? Is classical pretentious? Some might think so but not everyone. You’re presenting an “opinion.” Saying you’ve “studied” this for 30 years, and that the “consensus” among people you intend to appear similarly knowledgeable does nothing to change that. Or make it “better.” I love jazz. I also like early Yes. I just don’t hear Escape in 90125. I hear shorter, more accessible Yes. Big Generator and Asia aren’t Escape either. I think your metric is sales and popularity even if you won’t come out and say it, and you haven’t said anything about the music itself to dissuade me from that impression.

Listen, I don't mind arguing with you about this but at this point I would rather not do it in this thread. Send me a pm and we can continue this "discussion" in there.

Not that there's anything wrong with having both but I don't understand why someone would pick that one before this one being that "hybris" is more accessible and usually rated by most as being their best album. At any rate this is an essential prog album from the 90's and one of the first to put prog back on the map even if it was still relatively obscure at the time. A must have for those who like early Genesis, early King Crimson or symphonic prog in general. Edited February 10, 2019 by New_World_Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New_World_Man Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 ^ Wow, forgot all about that one despite the fact that it is one of my top favorite albums of all time. I finally saw Marillion two years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely a top ten album. It's my number two album of all time. Not just in Prog. Yep it sometimes takes time to fall madly in love with an album. I hated "Appetite For Destruction" when it came out. I actually returned the cd to the record store for store credit.Then a few months later I bought it again and BOOM! TRUE LOVE! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New_World_Man Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 ^Never heard Appetite for Destruction for some reason(just the hits from it). Anyway, the Ozric Tentacles album I posted a little earlier plus also Dust and Dreams by Camel also would usually make my top ten. I haven't done a top ten list in a while though.Since you mentioned it also Hemispheres is probably my favorite Rush album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
