Off of their 1974 LP, Turn of the Cards, one of the most beautiful voices in Prog Rock (or anywhere, for that matter!!)... Annie Haslam of Renaissance:
Also from 1974 (the video has the wrong date) I saw these guys that same week at the Whiskey A Go-go (minus the dancing girls... lol) but this was filmed at the Long Beach Auditorium, which has sadly given way to a Convention Center...
Although last year there was a vape-tober Fest there... (but I didn't get a chance to go)
One of my fave performers...
(some people don't realize what a great guitar player he is, too!!)
The first time I saw Todd was with Utopia, although we had a friend who was his drummer in The Nazz. This is from 1975, and is not the same line-up they had when I saw them play in '76... It was at a really nice little outdoor amphitheater in Burbank, called the Starlight Bowl... and I have seen him many times since!!
I also saw Genesis at the same place the 1st time they played without PG...
Artificial Heart (1969): A very smart device that replaces the heart as it is a bridge the time to heart transplant. What an amazing device. Thousands of lives have been saved because of this invention. This invention in the medical field has improved drastically over the last few decades. Improvements with technology, allow doctors to get a more timely diagnosis.
This is from the 2nd LP by the acoustic duo he had (with Steve Took on ....os/percussion) before he went electric and shortened the name to T-Rex... (ha!) and the 1st "Import" LP I ever bought. I don't think I bought it when it first came out, cuz Imports were kinda hard to find back then... although they were usually better quality, and sometimes had different tracks on them then the Domestic version!!
But it wasn't until their 3rd LP that they had one released here in the States...
(it's a good thing this came with a lyric sheet inside... lol)
Sheesh!! The censor-bot won't even let me post the kind of drums that the Beatniks used to play... Maybe because the 1st 4 letters spell out a kind of water pipe that is used to smoke herb... LMAO!!!
#2 Gloom, despair and agony on me
Deep down depression, excessive misery.
If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all.
Gloom, despair and agony on me.
