I seem to recall a couple featured in the Roger Dean book I have. Other bands included, of course, Yes, Uriah Heep and Osibisa amongst others #3

General Discussion / Re: Happy threadLast post by port perran - Yesterday at 08:45:20 PMQuote from: lil chris on Yesterday at 08:19:51 PMJust got some good news today, following my checkup scan in May I have been told I am still all clear. For anyone who does not know I had cancer in 2023 and had a opperation, then had chemo in 2024 and was told all clear. So well happy, I had a feeling it would be ok because I was booked a telephone appointment, but still glad to find out proper. Been told by the hospital they will be keeping a check on me for the next 5 years, which is good to know.Very good news Chris. #5
General Discussion / Re: what are you listening to ...Last post by port perran - Yesterday at 08:24:33 PMVery nice Tim @Moonglum . Very nice indeed.
I always rather liked Colosseum but was just ever so slightly put off by Chris Farlowe's vocals which I felt were rather overpowering. Yes, Clem Clemson was an under-rated guitarist and I also rated the legendary Dick Heckstalll-Smith on sax. Strangely, I never saw Colosseum live. I have no idea why as I saw most bands of the era. For some reason, however, they eluded me. I dod see Greenslade once but, like you, I was always a bit underwhelmed. #6

General Discussion / Re: what are you listening to ...Last post by Moonglum - Yesterday at 08:08:58 PMYes sad news, I haven't heard this track before, nice vibe(s). DG's work with Colosseum I think is better than his solo work which never quite did it for me - great album covers though!
DG was my dad's friend's neighbour in Stanmore back in the 70s and I saw Greenslade at the Roundhouse (Camden) in July 1975 (supported by Motorhead no less). Martin @port perran , you might like this one as well with the late Barbara Thompson. Clem Clemson is a great guitarist as well. Tim #9
