ZZBlue Comet , I don’t think they would classify it as a banger because that means a heavier type song. Great song? Yes, but a “banger” no. It’s like calling Pink Floyd headbanger. That’s what banger means. Plenty of hard bands can’t hold a candle to PINK FLOYD. It’s a categorization not just it’s a good song.

@Jimbodisfan 4 жыл бұрын

The 1990s Chicago Bulls' theme song is actually called "Sirius" and segues into "Eye in the Sky", the title track from their 1982 album. You should also check out the instrumental "Lucifer", from their 1979 album *Eve* (fun fact: that album's theme is women, and late singer Eric Woolfson's (1945-2009) mother in law at the time is named Eve); "Prime Time" and "Don't Answer Me", both from the Alan Parsons Project's 1984 album *Ammonia Avenue*; "Time" (which was both my mother's favorite song and the theme of my high school senior class yearbook) from 1980's *Turn of a Friendly Card*, an album about gambling; and the instrumental "Mammagamma" a great road trip song from the album *Eye in the Sky*. Hope I didn't ramble too long and bore anyone.

Games People Play is a great choice. The interlude in the middle is so unique and the guitar solo is very tasteful

My first year in college. This was extremely popular (I grew up in the Netherlands), and new for all of us who were too young for Pink Floyd. I would say this fitted in with the ELO and Supertramp style, symphonic rock etc.

Remember, Alan Parsons was the engineer on Dark Side of the Moon, which help influence the final sound of that record. Also, he was the one who brought in Clare Torry.

Alan Parsons...Hit something off Tales of Mystery and Imagination! Such a great album. Songs like The Raven or The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Feather.

One of the best producers in the industries! He produced Al Stewart’s Year of The Cat album which was Grammy award winning! You absolutely need to play that whole album and some from Time Passages! A masterful songwriter!!

Great reaction guys. Was just listening to some APP last week, revisiting some favorites after hearing about the recent passing of APP guitar player, Ian Bairnson. So many amazing musicians within "The Project" on the studio albums and was lucky enough to see them live a number of times over the years. Such a great, deep rabbit hole the APP catalogue.

“(The System of) Doctor Tarr and Professor Feather” is a must. Don’t sleep on “Breakdown” either. So many great tracks 😎

(The System Of) Dr. Tarr and Professor Feather is my favorite song from that album. Followed by The Raven.

@jimcoleman6151 3 жыл бұрын

Love the Raven, but actually Fall of the House of Usher is my favorite there. But the whole album is awesome. Just like ALL of their other albums from the 70s.

Played in a cover band back in the 80s-90s. "I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You" was one we used as a set opener and it was awesome. Listen to it and picture yourself as the guy running the light board and you'll see why it was a good opener. The bass line is great and would get the audience moving for the rest of the set.

Maybe consider the Moody Blues!!! They heavily influenced Pink Floyd (and Queen) in the early days. So many... but. I'm nights in White satin, Tuesday afternoon, question, lovely to see you, ride my seesaw, isn't it strange, I'm just a singer in a rock 'n' roll band

This was the background music for me while growing up. It didn't enthuse me enough to buy it and listen to it over and over. But I didn't mind listening to it when friends played it or when it came on the radio. It could stem from my state of mind at that time. I need to study the lyrics now that I'm an adult. I prefer Supertramp.

Time to give The Guess Who a listen. I think you guys would appreciate "No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature" for the way two songs are seamlessly woven together (plus it rocks), but they have a lot of good music to choose from, and Burton Cummings can sing his a$s off.
