No industrial dance beats = NO FUTURE.

Everything would sound like early Led Zepplin

that wouldn't be all bad...
i could learn to live with that.

No industrial dance beats-
nah! somebody would've come up with it...
hmmm, this begets the question-
How would the mid 90's Nu-Metal have come about without Faith No More or Ministry?

and...
Did cocaine inspire all 80's mainstream music/movies?
i say- YES.

"As for Japanese musicians, well I've yet to hear a Japanese
artist who was any good"

....and Puffy Amiyumi, and Shonen Knife, and Buffalo Daughter, and the Pillows, and Pizzicato Five, and the Boredoms, and....

Prog {in part} in three words: Todd Rundgren / Utopia
They're a BLAST.

if prog didnt exist, lou reed wouldn't have had the lousy backup band he had for his crappy first album.

three months pass...

My love of prog, especially YES, is in full rev once again, esp. after having seen them play their hearts out last week.

Marshal Jefferson's favorite band was (is?) YES. And Larry Heard dug them, too. The connections between YES + Chicago house are there. Somewhere.
