| 29. and then there was the drug part |
|
I'm guessing some drugs were involved in most of those spectacles of compositional excess, or am I wrong?
 there is obviously some early and later Grateful Dead stuff that is way experimentally over the top and the question is: where is the intersection of musical inspiration/improvisation and the psychdelics. of course, one probably wouldn't ask that question about Mozart, Bach., Beethoven.... Charlie Parker, Coltrane, etc. It raises very interesting questions about creativity and one's state of mind. Nice post! |

Keep in mind, Wakeman was stupid drunk during the 70s. |

bridgit | Apr-13-06 05:33 AM | #9 |

A good example that proves Tull was not prog-rock |
notmypresident | Apr-13-06 10:48 AM | #39 |
