A seminal album in Christian heavy metal history. Unbelievably, this is now 36 years old. 

I suspect 99.7% of the board will be repelled by the Thrashy goodness. ?

Welcome to the old farts club, mate.

I have the 'Best of Nice' album but only really like tracks I can count on one hand.
ELP a different kettle of fish in that I saw them twice and have their first, Trilogy, Pictures and Tarkus albums.
With both Nice and ELP I enjoy the classical/prog crossovers

One of my favourite ELP tracks as well, a bit of a King Crimson thing going on there!

PS Martin @port perran , I didn't think for a millisecond that you would like Whitesnake!

sad to say old age has introduced me to arthritis--therefore its very painful to type and almost impossible to make model locos--so i wont be posting much in the way of "gotta post something even if it's irrelevant/wrong/adds nothing useful", which will no doubt please some on here.

Dunno why I ever thought the Nice were so great. Or ELP, for that matter. Short of things to listen to back then, I guess 

Another delve back into ancient times.

I was never hugely into Emerson, Lake and Palmer but did really like Just Take a Pebble from their self titled debut album.

Here is a video from 1970.

Don't they look young!

PS Another clip tomorrow, or maybe even later today, from a not too well known 70s prog rock outfit that I saw live once, as a support act, but had completely forgotten about until I came across them again last night.
Any guesses?

The Model Centre had a pre-owned 50% off sale and had two Revolution Class 59 EWS Sound Fitted and instead of just jumping on one, I tried to get cute and ask questions use the "make an offer" tab.

Grr!!! While I was goofing off... gone.   

Yeah, have done that myself.

Angry at myself!!

Well, for me work has been a bit busy and has had me "on the road" this last week or so - as such I have had to cut back on both meaningful and trivia posts (not even much of me having a go at George @Bealman  about Sunderland ) . Anyway I am saving up quite a bit on both SPAM and wagon building projects which I will get to during the upcoming Golden Week holiday here....
