ytserush Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Great band featuring the mighty Allan Holdsworth :notworthy: on lead guitars! :guitar: :haz: :goodone: For the first album anyway.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 (edited) A super band on the first album. The concept of replacing Allan Holdsworth on album number two with no guitarist at all still baffles me somewhat. Wetton and Jobson seemed to want to go in a more accessible direction while Bruford and Holdsworth didn't. I'm totally fine with it though because there was still a UK (briefly) and then there was Bruford's band.

ytserush Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 You can find the extended version of the live album Night After Night here It's awesome. It sure is. It's a nice box. Eddie Jobson produced it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The concept of replacing Allan Holdsworth on album number two with no guitarist at all still baffles me somewhat. I saw this lineup abut 10 years ago - Jobson, Wetton and Bozzio. It was killer - though of course I would've preferred Holdsworth and Bruford to be there. They released a live CD of that show. It's really good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ytserush Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 I was lucky enough to see them once, they opened for Jethro Tull in like 1980, it was one of my first if not first concerts. I'd seen them on MTV. Can't say I recall seeing UK on MTV. Was it for In The Dead Of Night or Presto Vivace and Reprise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd seen them on MTV. I saw that too in '79. and then Jobson was on the 1980 Tull album "A" which I think is very underrated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though, I could be making it up and I just....oh wait, when did MTV start, 1980 or 1981? Maybe I just liked them when they opened... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

August 1, 1981 but they played videos from before then because they didn't have a lot to play anything for the first few years.before narrowing the playlist.

Laurabw Posted December 12, 2020 Author Share Posted December 12, 2020 Ok. So when I saw them with Tull, there WAS no MTV yet. I guess I just liked them when I saw them in concert. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
