Anyone remembers Van Der Graaf Generator with Peter Hammill?

Halcyon Days (John Tesh)

 

[kduncan5]

I've heard of Van Der Graff Generator, but I don't remember what they sound like or any of the names of their songs. Unfortunately, I don't have any of their albums.

It's been a long time..... -kd5-

 

[kduncan5]

How about Tangerine Dream, or even better: Aphrodite's Child? -kd5-


Bonus: If you can guess who the driving force was behind Aphrodite's Child, you win the kd5 Bozo Button!

 

[Cylon]

Eye of The Tiger From the movie Rocky.

Vangelis Pappathanassiou and the ever thin Demis Roussos. I still listen to 666 once every few months. Brings back high school memories.

VDGG sounded like a mix of 1969-70 King Crimson & Genesis.

How about Focus?

Hocus Pocus (Focus)

 

[kduncan5]

Dennilfloss, now it's your turn to blow my mind! Although Demis Roussos played a very large part in the creation of 666, I was thinking more along the lines of Vangelis Papathanassiou. I guess I should've worded it more carefully. You win the kd5 Bozo Button......... now where did I put that d*mned thing? Sh*t, I'm gonna have to go look for it.

While I'm looking, have you heard Vangelis O., Earth? -kd5-

 

[dennilfloss]

Hehe. I thought of Vangelis and took so long to type that your post came before my edit. LOL

"And when the Lamb opened the first seal..."

No, I haven't heard Earth.

Oxygène, all parts (Jean-Michel Jarre)

 

[kduncan5]

And Equinoxe..... -kd5-


From Vangelis O., "My Face In The Rain" and "We Were All Uprooted". Excellent songs.....

 

[dennilfloss]

Hehe. Time to mention Giorgio Moroder!

Oh! What A Night! (Giorgio Moroder)

 

[kduncan5]

You got me there.........

"Good God, we are talking about Music Made before a good portion of this membership was even born"

Hehe Red Dawn,

Liked the Andrew sisters, didn't you?

Giorgio made a lot of electronic disco for Boney M and Donna Summer (e.g. the Bad Girls album) in the late 70s. He also made more serious music (e.g. The Chase, from Midnight Express).

Autobahn (Kraftwerk)

 

[kduncan5]

Anybody heard of a West Coast band called the Nails? Song called "Janine"? They have two albums out. The one I have's called "Dangerous Dreams". -kd5-

 

[Rudee]

Kiss - Detroit Rock City!!!

"Get up, everybody's gonna move their feet Get down, everybody's gonna leave their seat. You gotta lose your mind in Detroit Rock City"

Wooohoooo!!!!

 

[randypj]

I love rock & roll....put another dime in the jukebox baby.....

Red Dawn--No matter what the volume, this always rocks crisp and clean on my system. I never would have chosen this as a song to show off a system. Any idea why it sounds so good?
