VDGG-Still Life

[pizzide]

Brividi.

[duffnotedoonican]

Guy Evans is one of rock's great drummers, great jazz drummer too, along with Palmer one of a few with conventional grip

[verbo108]

What have we relinquished without even knowing it was there?

This is such a beautiful song, Thnaks for posting

[ColouredDarkness]

Cavolo, Peter Hammill è davvero inarrestabile anche alla sua età.. E mi fa piacere che venga spesso in Italia a suonare, cosa che in pochi fanno.

[Nigihayahi]

Thank you for your pusting.

[sonicstatues]

A very special trio.

Peter Hammill est l'un des grands compositeurs de l'histoire du rock : V.D.G.G. et en solo. A une certaine époque (album : Over), il m'a sauvé la vie. For me, P. Hammill is God... Respect & admiration....

Una de las obras maestras de Peter Hammill. Tristeza, rabia, desesperación se conjugan en este tema tan hermoso y emotivo. Un tema tan eterno... como la muerte.

[rockinfine]

It is "Death" and it makes a world of difference if you understand the jist of his poem!

[telemacherT2]

"Take away the threat of (sex) and all you're left with is a round

of MakeBelieve!"

[kara1464]

I thought it was 'take away the threat of death' ?

[telemacherT2]

Sex/Death same thing.

When I first heard this song, Sex was more of a threat than death.

(you are correct)

[zorrozaront]

Great GREAT song, lousy drummer though..

[forsakengardens]

@zorrozaront

what a comment! I wholeheartedly agree with the first part but i have to strongly decry the validity of the second, Guy Evans is a truly great drummer and the evidence of this is in all VDGG's records as well as the legion live performances featured on youtube. You are mistaken.

[TOREMJ]

Seeing this song in Amsterdam was my greatest concert experience to date. Pure Magic. Let the Generator spin!

[thegreatcarlusx]

Amazing

[Gerry1959]

This wonderful song is from my first experience of VDGG . I heard "Still Life" first in 1976. I've been in thrall ever since. The best music, lyrics and attitude in all of modern music. Halls of Fame are not sufficient . . .this is art of the very highest order . . .

[telemacherT2]

BRAVO!

[burgersoft777]

Its turning out to be something of a VDGG golden age...Jaxon meanwhile has been working with the other forgotten hero...Nic Potter and low and behold a new live CD is about to be realeased...look out nic's site.

[gvcfernandes]

Bloody Marvelous!!! Long live Van der Graaf Generator!

[mtv333]

Astonishing! Peter Hammill & co. should write a book about how to grow old and keep the voice, the attitude, the will... Many a rock star would do well reading that book. Amazing performance of this great song.

[rimste]

Though broadcasted by RomaUno, this is VdGG at Umbertide, Umbria. They finished with this beautiful Still Life and as the lights turned on, I went wandering by the small town unable to believe what I had seen. Thank you so much for the post

[P0LSET]

Thank You

[rockprivado]

amazing... though still miss David Jackson

[drthess]

GREAT... CAN'T WAIT FOR THEIR NEW CD
