| Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like? @analogj - Might be the best guides if you like that kind of music, but not everybody does.

| What is your favorite cover? @ozzy - actually, Arthur Brown had quite a good career with his prog-rock band, Kingdom Come and he's done a bit since then, too. Kingdom Come's 'Journey' is a progressive rock masterpiece.... | |
