High Tide - The Joke

[dogmaxpeppe]

I'm trying to write lyrics of this song, but I'm italian so I can't understand some words and there are some errors: The redeem in fact of here is very clear, the voice gently spoke This crime is ugly one to cost concern or in there the joke This joke belongs to everyone since the game began The defendant backs to save that sings that day, his laugh (?turnin'?) seeds he sings has realized the (???) involved in his deals To laugh before the (???) time This is only cry

this is how prog rock must sound not that faggy Asia, Genesis or Gentle Giant

Ummmm... I think I prefer Bach.

...I see that "Saneonymous" is now on YouTube (other track from this album), though missing the first few minutes, and faded out at the end. How could anyone fade out Tony Hill's guitar work? Sacrilege!!

god i love this song and this band, very underrated it seems like, but i think of it like this: not a lot of people (at least people that i know) know about high tide so its like a treasure,

but i do show a lot of my friends this song

...I have them on vinyl, but I have just moved house, and the stuff is all over the place!

Can't remember what some of the titles of the albums are right now, but one is "Precious Cargo", which I believe was made in Italy.

Will get back.....

...I have six of them, but by far superior are the first two, in my opinion.

Not sure what happened to Roger Hadden, the drummer - may have died?

Went to their last gig - and they didn't turn up!

Brilliant musicians, and of course Simon House joined Hawkwind and Third Ear Band, whilst Tony Hill went solo, and gigged with Bevis Frond.

Peter Pavli did sessions with various bands, including Frond....

...and Tony Hill now gigs with "Fiction"...but they sadly miss that cutting electric violin, I reckon.

Do u have these albums on CD or vinyl? If I gave u my email...could u send me any outstanding tracks?

Hi Square, I've just bought a CD by High Tide at a fleamarket, from around 1990. I don't like it tho', somehow te songs are lacking vocals, at least for my tastes. If you I paid, but the post would be too much. John

[eggflipsupreme]

...it's a "Joke" that they weren't given credit by more people!

[squarepyramid99]

If you look up High Tide in Wikipaedia you will find they had about 8 albums! I don't think the later ones had a general release...but I am trying hard to get them!!

[twistsanny]

I GIVE THEM CREDIT!
