Let's just chill out brothers. I'm seeing Styx at the flea market tonight - gonna be a rockin' time, reliving my glory days! Gonna drink plenty of beer too before socialist obama takes away our beer and guns and rock n roll! Edited May 30, 2012 by beherit

Dude! I agree with you on Obama but not on STYX!

 

I saw them headline with Kansas and Yes and Styx stole the show!

I actually thought that Kansas was better than Yes. That new lead singer is a fruit loop.

It's been four years. I think your precious guns are safe

 

As for Styx... it says a lot that they're playing flea markets instead of proper venues.

You are very welcome!!

 

Hahahaha! Please don't take my goofy threads and posts too serious. It's just entertainment! This is the only Forum on the planet that can tolerate me.

 

Life is short!

 

RUSH ON!

It wouldn't surprise me if Styx was playing flea markets, to be honest.

While I think most of the best progressive music was released during this period, I have to say that jazz fusion had its "peak" almost entirely in the eighties while the proggers took a break.

Al Di Meola would be an excellent example however his best albums were in 1976, and 1978.

 

I do think that "Splendido Hotel" 1980 and "Electric Rendezvous" 1982 were also stellar though!

 

Stanley Clarke's best stuff was in the Seventies too. "School Days" 1976 is my favorite but I also love "Rocks, Pebbles And Sand" which is a 1980 record featuring the great young Simon Phillips on the drums!

 

[fledgehog]

doesn't get any better than 70s classical.

[fledgehog]

or 70s big band and swing, 70s post-rock, 70s hardcore, 70s rap, or 70s any other genre that has been invented between 1980 and now.

I like the early-mid-70s jazz fusion the most - Mahavishnu, RTF, electric Miles Davis, etc.

There's one problem with Rushgoober's 1969-1979 best era theory; his favourite RUSH album was released in 1982...

It's a popular view that Al's best albums came out in the 70s but I don't agree, my favorites are World Sinfonia and Kiss My Axe. These albums are much more sophisticated, with better compositions and arrangements.
