Re: don't knock topo

I remember frequently hearing "Tales From Topographic Oceans" emanating from my brother's bedroom as a nipper. He is now serving a 10-year sentence in Parkhurst for child abuse, at my instigation.

Prog revival / rehabilitation? Nein danke. Overall, that would be about as welcome a development as the Tories being re-elected IMO. (Not that a lot of what came after the great purge of 77 wasn't equally shite, mind - anyone remember Chelsea? The UK Subs?)

Gotta admit, VDGG and Man definitely had their moments though. Were the Groundhogs prog? I'd spare them the firing squad too. I also like early Hawkwind (prior to Lemmy leaving) but to me they were more psychedelic than progressive.

Worst prog record I ever heard? Would have to be that It Bites album with "Calling All The Heroes" on it (can't even remember the title, it was that bad).
