    listen to PFM!

  • @220773 I meant learn it so I could understand what was being said in the interview. Funny thing, Gentle Giant broke up never dreaming about the internet. With the few live performances they have now and as well as it plays on Utube, think what might be if they'd have suffered making their antics of transitioning from one set of instruments to another, as a quintet of multi-instrumentalists, their main act? Beyond what they R, what a fascination they'd be & great role models for youth.

  • British pop-prog bands found heaven in Italy back then. Genesis and Yes over all, no doubt, they were legends over here... ELP come second (Keith used to live here, and now Carl has a villa outside Rome and often plays in small venues around here too!), Gentle Giant, King Crimson and VDGG all come third, and the rest of those bands (also foreign bands such as Focus) come next...

    Not only Italian prog bands were influenced by such artists, but ANYONE who made music was. :-)

  • @MisterNifty It's a hard language, too many exceptions to rules, a total mess... as a half-Italian half-Scots guy I would never recommend you to learn such a language.

  • Pugwash's a laugh!!! Derek Shulman tries posh accents, nowadays he's totally acquired an American accent, you should check him out... nasty...

    Kerry looks like being the more down-to-earth handy personality in the band. :-)

  • You know, this band could have performed as a quintet on the streets of France with very little notariety. Still, their music was unique. As they were all skillful multi instrumentalists, the transitional antics they performed to bridge one set of musical instruments to another, sometimes with a lot of humor, would still have set them apart.

  • Man, I've just got to learn Italian!

  • Kerry, John, Ray and Gary sound like great guys...Derek(i might be wrong) sounds like a dushbag...and i have a feeling its true for him to want to stop three friends from performing...anyways i hope that a tour will happen sum day
