It's always a blessing having you in my living room over here in Germany, thank you for the inspiration and the insights to your emotional approach to music. My fusion journey has only just begun.
Ken changes the rules as usual and we're all the better for it. The Professor can do no wrong. Thank you gentlemen for another excellent show. Enjoyable and educational as ever.
1971 was probably the greatest year of all rock sub-genres. Focus Eruption is great. I first heard The Inner Mounting Flame at the beach and to this day it is my favorite kind of surf music.
This was a great discussion. You guys inspired me to pick up three Gentle Giant albums and the three Mwandishi-era Herbie Hancock albums. Thanks Luis and Chuck! 5. Tangerine Dream - Alpha Centauri 4. Uriah Heep - Salisbury 3. UFO - Flying 2. Pink Floyd - Meddle 1. Hawkwind - In Search of Space I like my prog heavy, but also honorable mentions to The Yes Album and Caravan - In the Land of Grey and Pink, which are both great.
1971: the best year in prog/fusion and my first year with a steady income (I got drafted). Oh well... 1. Miles Davis: Jack Johnson 2. Jethro Tull: Aqualung 3. Procol Harum: Broken Barricades ("Simple Sister") 4. Family: Fearless (Wetton and Chapman were a powerhouse) 5. Traffic: The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys HM: Weather Report: Weather Report Soft Machine: Fourth (I remember playing this over the US European military radio network. Not everyone appreciated "Fletcher's Blemish")
Arguably one of my favorite years ever. My ranking: 1. Pink Floyd - Meddle 2. King Crimson - Islands 3. Focus - Moving Waves 4. Gentle Giant - Acquiring The Taste 5. Emerson Lake and Palmer - Pictures At An Exhibition
Thanks, gents, for your time and sharing your top choices for 1971 in this entertaining episode. '71 was a great year for music when I was 15 but Caravan's In The Land Of Pink And Gray only came to my attention a few years back from watching this channel. It could be in the top 5 but for the relatively brief amount of time in the listening library. The longer term picks are Jethro Tull's Aqualung, the Moody's Every Good Boy...., Traffic's The Low-Spark of High Heeled Boys, Chicago III and Yes - either album. Alway enjoy In The Prog Seat and definitely looking forward to the discussion in the next episode.
1. Nursery Cryme 2. The Yes Album/Fragile 3. Meddle 4. Aqualung 5. Tarkus 6. Every Good Boy Deserves Favour 7. Islands 8. Pawn Hearts 9. In the Land of Grey and Pink 10. Salisbury / Look at Yourself
Looking forward to the ITPS gentlemen’s picks from 1971 ... so many great well known and more obscure picks from throughout the World. My initial favorite top 5 1971 prog and prog jazz fusion albums are 1. Pawn Hearts - Van der Graaf Generator, 2. The Trip - Caronte, 3. Acquiring the Taste - Gentle Giant, 4. In the Land of the Pink and Grey - Caravan and 5. The Inner Mounting Flame - Mahavishnu Orchestra.
Pink Floyd:Echoes: The “Seagull Effect” was created by David Gilmour accidentally plugging in his guitar in the wrong way and out came the squeal. The sound Luis was talking about was the Submarine Sonar created by Rick Wright using his Leslie speaker from a microphone inside the piano. He is playing a high B.
correct. The pings... You can also make the seagull effect with a slide and the MXR phase 100 pedal (plus Gilmour's EHX big Muff). Gilmour used a wah in reverse connection, and tweaked the tone knob. I would imagine his pick-up selector would be on the 4th position?
@@lahloonatic I tried that reverse wah-wah and it was silent. Luis, could you please tell me what notes Greg Lake is playing at the beginning of Tarkus? They go by so fast and I can’t read tab or bass clef. I really only need the first seven pitches.
The Yes Album, Fragile, Aqualung, Meddle, Tarkus, Islands, In the Land of Grey and Pink. To my heart, 1971 was the best year for rock music ever. Who’s Next, Led Zeppelin IV, “Imagine”, and the ones above would clinch that all by themselves, but there’s a lot more. Allman Brothers, Humble Pie, and Colosseum live; Master of Reality, Fireball, “Hocus Pocus”, Every Picture Tells a Story, The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys, Hawkwind’s In Search of Space, “The Story in Your Eyes”, Electric Warrior, “Nantucket Sleighride”, “Surf’s Up”, Nick Drake’s “Northern Sky”, two great posthumous Jimi Hendrix albums…. It was an inspired and inspiring time.
1971 was a great year! I was 13...still into The Doors, Rare Earth, Chicago, BS&T, Hendrix, The Guess Who, Santana, Sly, Pop music (still only had AM in the cars)...my move towards Hard/Acid Rock began in 1972...the new Buick with FM opened up a lot. Did own PARANOID in '71, though. I bought FRAGILE, THE YES ALBUM, AQUALUNG, MACHINE HEAD, LZ IV, & the 3 big Alice Cooper Group albums in 1972.
Thanks for the show again. My top 5 Pink Floyd - Meddle Genesis- Nyrsery Cryme Jethro Tull - Aqualung Yes - Fragile Caravan - In the land of grey and pink. HM : Gentle Giant - Acquiring the taste ELP - Tarkus
Cool show on a great year! My list was completely covered. 1. Traffic - Low Spark of High-Heeled Boys 2. Yes - The Yes Album / Fragile (the cheat) 3. Jethro Tull - Aqualung 4. Caravan - The Land of Pink and Grey 5. Pink Floyd - Meddle
Thanks to all the panelists or thier time and effort. i have no argument with any of selctions. When the subject of age came I started to think of my own experience. I was 14 through most of 1971. I had started to collect LP's in 1967. I was raised in a small town in the midwest and most FM radio signals could not reach me however I was a relentless seeker. It occured to me that if I made a list of what my 14 year old self actually listened to and liked the most it is a little different than my historical list as of today. Some of the mentioned releases make both lists however being a teen I gravitated towards less complex music. Honorable mention Gypsy - In The Garden.
Big thanks to everyone, the show was an absolute joy to watch as usual, own or owned a lot of the stuff, that got mentioned. Really looking forward to the Passion Play show. LEEDS ARENA WEDNESDAY 13 MARCH 2024. JUDAS PRIEST SUPPORTED by Uriah Heep and Saxon. Time to get on the plane Gentlemen. If it’s not sold out already.
Great show as ever gents. My choices: 5. Van Der Graaf Generator "Pawn Hearts" 4. Pink Floyd "Meddle" 3. Caravan "In the Land of Grey and Pink" 2. Amon Duul II "Dance of the Lemmings" 1. Hawkwind "In Search of Space"
Great show guys loves it. Here is my top 5 1- Yes : Fragile 2- Genesis : Nursery Cryme 3- Gentle Giant : Acquiring The Taste 4- Jethro Tull : Aqualung 5- Mahavisnu Orchestra : The Inner Mounting Flame
A couple of weeks ago I bought the Steven Wilson remixes of Aqualung (so good to hear the panel recommend that version) and also A Passion Play (which I've never listened to!) so will be interesting to watch the next show to hear it discussed. Thanks guys - interesting & entertaining as usual!
My list; 1) The Moody Blues "Every Good Boy Deserves Favor 2) Yes "Fragile 3) Yes "The Yes Album 4) ELP "Pictures at an Exhibition" 5) Procol Harum "Broken Barricades"
Really appreciate this! Anyone who is into this era or said genres will really love this. A correction though to something Ken Golden said, Mal Waldron played electric piano also on Embryo's "Rocksession" and "Steig aus" both from 1973.
@@lasercd7851 Hmmmm...You didn't say that...Semantics. Plus I'm not sure I would call "The Call" a solo Waldron LP? I always thought of it as a group effort, Mal's name is included among the others. Gotcha Ken! Just kidding. I do see Wikipedia as it listed as a Waldron LP.
@@Benji306 As I’m sure you will recall I’ve discussed Rock session and Steig Aus in the past. Mal was with Embryo for a reasonable period of time. The JAPO release “The Call” is a Mal Waldron release.
When I was a child, on my summer holidays (in the very early 1970s) I would go to play at my friends house. He had an older sister who had a fantastic record collection. We would play in the house and garden and play his sisters records. Ms Sephton, I never knew your first name, but many many thanks. 1 - Caravan - In the Land of Grey and Pink (one of my all time favorite albums) 2 - Pink Floyd - Meddle (especially the guitar at the end of Echoes) 3 - Yes - The Yes Album (my wife sings along with this) 4 - Gong - Camembert Électrique (Love, love, love this album) 5 - Can - Tago Mago 5 - Gentle Giant - Acquiring the Taste 5 - Tangerine Dream - Alpha Centauri 5 - Guru Guru - Hinten 5 - Amon Düül II - Tanz Der Lemminge 5 - Hawkwind - In Search Of Space
My Top 5: 1. Van Der Graaf Generator - Pawn Hearts 2. Yes - The Yes Album 3. Genesis - Nursery Cryme 4. Jethro Tull - Aqualung 5. Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame HM’s: Gentle Giant - Acquiring The Taste, Pink Floyd - Meddle, and ELP’s Tarkus. I know Yes’s Fragile was released in 1971 everywhere else in the world, but here in the States, it was released in January of 1972, which is why it wasn’t on my list.
1971 was a stellar year for hard rock, soft rock, country rock, glam, singer-songwriters, southern rock, blues rock, protopunk, protometal and of course prog and jazz fusion. I was 5 and starting kindergarten by the way. My top five: 5. Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame 4. Genesis - Nursery Cryme 3. Yes - The Yes Album 2. Jethro Tull - Aqualung 1. Miles Davis - Jack Johnson (fusion college!) HM's: Pink Floyd - Meddle Yes - Fragile Traffic - The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys Herbie Hancock - Mwandishi Weather Report - S/T
Enjoyed the show, you guys covered most of the generally accepted classics of 1971. Good to see Chicago III get at least an honourable mention. I'd also throw in a few more suggestions worth checking out - Mogul Thrash (with John Wetton & James Litherand), Electric Light Orchestra/No Answer (ELO), Message from the Country (Move); Fireball (Deep Purple), Elegy (Nice); Fearless (Family); And Other Short Stories (Barclay James Harvest); Edgar Broughton Band; Song of the Marching Chidren (Earth & Fire); Angel Delight (Fairport Convention) and I'd even consider Led Zeppelin IV can be included in the category. I believe these albums all qualify to belong in some form or another to the prog genre. (Musicians trying to push boundaries of, what was regarded at the time, the norm by experimentation with various novel sound combinations, songwriting, arrangements and production.) The only record (single) I bought in 1971 was a proggy cover version of Sugar Sugar by Sakkarin on the RCA label. Didn't start my real collection until the late 70's after most of the best stuff had already been recorded.
Regarding “Echoes,” the notes at the beginning are a grand piano being fed through a Leslie and an Echorec. The seagull noises are a way pedal plugged in backwards!
I'd like to ad...The finnish group with their selftitled album..."Tasavallan Presidentti" and actually a soloalbum from the guiterist in that band called "Tolonen", his name is Jukka Tolonen. Then the Swedish band Kebenekaise with the album "Resa mot okänt mål" (Travel towards unknown goal).
Great show. Late comment: The much maligned Yes Album cover contains an empty chair, which is a common symbol for absence. The manikin head gives the image another ghostly/surreal element.
Great show. What part of Chicago do Luis and George live in? Love the City of Chicago. My Mom's side of the family is from there and we vacation there every year. Great show!!
I agree ... Jethro Tull from Stand Up through Stormwatch is a contender for strongest string of albums ever made, including how good Bursting Out is as a live album. I love Pink Floyd, ELP, Elton John, Beatles, Zappa, Rush ... gotta go with Tull.
@@МаксРогозин-е1ю well ... that would be the only album from in that span that I don't love, so agree with you there as well. It has some good songs but Ian's 'observer of the gritty social fabric' phase had run its course. so 10 out of 11 or whatever is not too bad.
I saw a few Vertigo copies of Acquiring the Taste held up. I don't know about the vinyl, but those CD versions contain a glitch (the 'bend') on the opening of the title track (maybe it even sounds cool, in a way.) The copy Steven held up (BGO, also the one I own) has the glitch removed; Steven, don't be so rough on the 2 on 1 package - you got the right copy of AtT. 😉 Just thought that this might be of some interest to a few of you. (Fantastic album, btw.)
#1 Jethro Tull - Aqualung #2 Pink Floyd - Meddle #3 Genesis - Nursery Cryme #4 Yes - Fragile #5 Strawbs - From The Witchwood Honorable Mentions Yes - The Yes Album Miles Davis - Jack Johnson ELP - Tarkus/Pictures At An Exhibition Caravan - In The Land Of Grey And Pink
My top 3 : Nursery Crime, number one by a million miles, Tarkus, Aqualung. Can't pick a Fusion album cos I don't know what Fusion is, which shows how ignorant I am :) Thanks again lads.
After your mention. I downloaded the Comus album First Utterance. Reminds me of Phallus Dei by Amon Duul II with some Roger Chapman, Quintessence & The Incredible String Band mixed in. Very Pagan. Next time I climb the Glastonbury Tor this should be playing on my headphones.
@@МаксРогозин-е1ю You have great taste! Have you heard Jola Rota by Joakim Skogsberg? It's another scary Freak Folk album but very different! Amazing album!
@@bertkarlsson1421 never heard but thanks for recommendation. What about Spirogyra? Love Barbara Gaskin 's voice but musically they're not so intense as Comus.
My 1-5 are usual suspect masterpieces and all prog, yet jazz/fusion is my 6-10: Tribute to Jack Johnson -Miles Davis, London Scene -Fela Kuti, Mwandishi -Herbie Hancock, Journey in Sachidananda -Alice Coltrane, Inner Mounting Flame -Mahavishnu Orchestra.
That list is smokin' hot!!! The Miles and Mahavishnu albums are bona fide classics, and I love me some Herbie. Kudos for the Fela Kuti mention; it blew my mind when I heard Chuck bring his name up in passing on one of the 'A-Z' segments some months ago.
Just 5 titles!? If hard pressed my top five for 1971 are: 5. Caravan - "In the Land of Grey and Pink" 4. Yes - "The Yes Album" 3. Mahavishnu Orchestra "Inner Mountain Flame" 2. Van der Graaf Generator - "Pawn Hearts" 1. Pink Floyd - "Meddle"
This prompted me to pullout my mini-disc(yea, I said mini-disc) collections of self-made Progcomps(1969-81) and listen to this year. No Fusion on these, just Prog or I would have to put it in LP4 mode. I love it when Ken mentions Still Life, it's such a good album. Who doesn't have Mwandishi but the other two? Ya, gotta get that one to finish up that great trilogy of albums.
1971 was a great year for music in general, but here's my top five prog/fusion albums 1. Barclay James Harvest - Once Again 2. Uriah Heep - Salisbury 3. Earth and Fire - Song of the Marching Children 4. Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame 5. Genesis - Nursery Cryme
Of the albums mentioned, I've got: Mahavishnu - Inner Mounting Flame Genesis - Nursery Crime Yes - The Yes Album, Fragile Jethro Tull - Aqualung Santana - III Of these, I've listened to Inner Mounting Flame the most. The others, besides being familiar with the "hits", I need to revisit.
So glad Faust & Amon Duul II got mentioned in the end, but somehow no one mentioned Can - Tago Mago or Gong - Camembert Electrique. I mean, how can you forget Tago Mago???
Not that many (jazz/rock) fusion albums to choose from yet from 1971-still early days. My faves: Brian Auger's Oblivion Express & A Better Land (proggy too) Howard Roberts - Antelope Freeway Jukka Tolonen - Tolonen! Larry Coryell/Eleventh House - Basics Mahavishnu - Inner Mounting Flame (quite possibly my overall #1) Osibisa - s/t For Prog there's a lot more choice so only listing bands A-F here (there are quite a few really good ones): Abstract Truth - Silver Trees & Totum Ardo Dombec - s/t Argent - Ring Of Hands (great record!) Audience - The House On The Hill Bakery - Memento Barclay James Harvest - Once Again & Barclay James Harvest and Other Short Stories Black Widow - s/t Blast Furnace - s/t Clear Blue Sky - Destiny Clouds - Up Above Our Heads Culpeper's Orchard - s/t Deep Feeling - s/t East Of Eden - s/t Fields - s/t Flea On The Honey - s/t Fred - s/t Fresh Maggots - s/t Frumpy - Frumpy 2 Fuzzy Duck - s/t
Agree with everything I knew in that, wouldn't know how to rank them. My honourable mentions would have to include Once Again by BJH. A band not up there with the greats and this album is not without a dud or two, but some marvellous mellotron work and She Said is a stonker of an opener. For me those early albums had a wonderful atmosphere that the music didn't always quite live up to.
Excellent list! Of course, I have to comment on the Magma album; not only did it make your list, you chose it as top pick. Awesome in my book. Love that album!
George, I accept that you don't "like" The Clap, but are you willing to concede that it's incredible guitar playing, the style and technical refinement of which made it possible for Howe to do the things he did on the electric tracks?
I'll do 5 à la Ken, no classic and Hall of Famers (in no order) : 1- Marsupilami - Arena 2- Arhtur Brown/Kingdom Come - Galactic Zoo Dossier 3- Dr. Z - Three Parts To My Soul (Spiritus, Manes Et Umbra) 4- Frumpy - Frumpy 2 5- I Giganti - Terra In Bocca
Another great show. My list is very easy to compile with nothing obscure: 1. Nursery Cryme 2. Meddle 3. Aqualung 4. The Yes Album 5. Fragile Honourable mention - Led Zeppelin IV. Granted - pun intended - Zeppelin were not prog rock. However, they did dabble with prog on some of their tracks.
Hard to think of a band that existed back then and didn't have a great album that year. Can - Tago Mago Ash Ra Tempel Mahavishnu debut Aqualung Tony Williams lifetime Turn it Over (maybe 1970) Miles Davis Joe Jackson Deep Purple Firebal ELP tarkus Eloy Eloy Acquiring the Taste KC Islands Nektar Journey Samla Mammas debut SM 4 Santana III Fragile Wigwam Fairyport Accolade 2 Amon Duul II Sabbath Masters Egg Polite Force ELO debut Embryo Rache Faust Nursery Cryme Gila Free Electric Sound Nucleus Talk later Traffic Low Spark Meddle Virus Revelation Supersister Highest Strawbs witchwood Caravan Moving Gelatine Plates Eilif Kraan Kin Ping Meh Gravy Train It's a never ending list.....
Pawn hearts is in my top three records of all time at least… a majority of the following records were also released this year Also when I was in NY, Steve Keeler didn’t have any of the rock fantasy store shirts in my size:/ lol
in alphabetical order : The big names Emerson, La & Palmer - Tarkus Focus - Moving Waves Genesis - Nursery Crime Gentle Giant - Acquiring The Taste King Crimson - Lizard Moody Blues, The - Every good boy deserves favour Pink Floyd - Meddle Yes - Fragile some mentions : Beggars Opera - Waters of change Caravan - In the land of grey and pink Jacques Michel - S.O.S. Strawbs - From the witchwood Syrinx - Long lost relatives
1. Yes - The Yes Album 2. Genesis - Nursery Crime 3. Miles Davis - Tribute To Jack Johnson 4. Yes - Fragile 5. Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame
I'm limited as to what I can select, so my selections are... 1. The Yes Album - Yes 2. Fragile - Yes 3. AuqaLung - Jethro Tull 4. The Inner Mounting Flame - Mahavishnu Orchestra 5. Nursery Cryme - Genesis
I like to see Eric’s face when Pawn Hearts is mentioned. I am also surprised that nobody made a wisecrack, especially Luis, when George said he doesn’t like The Clap he really doesn’t like The Clap. I don’t think the clap is very popular with anybody. A missed opportunity.
Oh, it's great when George's favorite 'Asshat' is brought up. Watching both George and Eric? Yup. Chuck gets giggling, too. But NOTHING...and I mean NOTHING beats watching Pete's ol' poker face when someone brings up Magma (which Luis did in passing), and *especially* when Martin brings up something like Nirvana, or the many punk / post-punk bands he loves talking about. 😂😁
mahavishnu orchestra inner mountain flame,miles davis jack johson,john mclaughlin my goals beyond,alice coltrane Journey in Satchidananda,pharoah sanders thembi
Too many great albums to choose from, but: Nursery Cryme From The Witchwood In The Land Of The Grey and Pink The Yes Album Every Good Boy Deserves Favour Also want to mention: Carla Bley Escalator Up The Hill Soft Machine 4
"Golden Earring" (aka "Yellow and Blue"), "Seven Tears", "Together", "Moontan", "Switch", "To the Hilt"- six album run. "Kill Me (Ce Soir) is the best fusion of rock band and orchestra IMHO
It isn't said enough but we appreciate all you guys spending your time entertaining us.

Really appreciate this! Anyone who is into this era or said genres will really love this. A correction though to something Ken Golden said, Mal Waldron played electric piano also on Embryo's "Rocksession" and "Steig aus" both from 1973.
Of course but it was the only album as leader he played electric piano.
@@lasercd7851 Hmmmm...You didn't say that...Semantics. Plus I'm not sure I would call "The Call" a solo Waldron LP? I always thought of it as a group effort, Mal's name is included among the others. Gotcha Ken! Just kidding. I do see Wikipedia as it listed as a Waldron LP.
@@Benji306 As I’m sure you will recall I’ve discussed Rock session and Steig Aus in the past. Mal was with Embryo for a reasonable period of time. The JAPO release “The Call” is a Mal Waldron release.

When I was a child, on my summer holidays (in the very early 1970s) I would go to play at my friends house. He had an older sister who had a fantastic record collection. We would play in the house and garden and play his sisters records. Ms Sephton, I never knew your first name, but many many thanks.

I know Yes’s Fragile was released in 1971 everywhere else in the world, but here in the States, it was released in January of 1972, which is why it wasn’t on my list.
You guys should do a video on your favorite prog/fusion albums from 1979.
Great show guys, and nice to see the return of Steven
1971 was a stellar year for hard rock, soft rock, country rock, glam, singer-songwriters, southern rock, blues rock, protopunk, protometal and of course prog and jazz fusion. I was 5 and starting kindergarten by the way.
My top five:
5. Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame

Enjoyed the show, you guys covered most of the generally accepted classics of 1971. Good to see Chicago III get at least an honourable mention. I'd also throw in a few more suggestions worth checking out - Mogul Thrash (with John Wetton & James Litherand), Electric Light Orchestra/No Answer (ELO), Message from the Country (Move); Fireball (Deep Purple), Elegy (Nice); Fearless (Family); And Other Short Stories (Barclay James Harvest); Edgar Broughton Band; Song of the Marching Chidren (Earth & Fire); Angel Delight (Fairport Convention) and I'd even consider Led Zeppelin IV can be included in the category. I believe these albums all qualify to belong in some form or another to the prog genre. (Musicians trying to push boundaries of, what was regarded at the time, the norm by experimentation with various novel sound combinations, songwriting, arrangements and production.) The only record (single) I bought in 1971 was a proggy cover version of Sugar Sugar by Sakkarin on the RCA label. Didn't start my real collection until the late 70's after most of the best stuff had already been recorded.
Can't wait for the Jethro Tull A Passion Play album study. Can't wait!
Regarding “Echoes,” the notes at the beginning are a grand piano being fed through a Leslie and an Echorec. The seagull noises are a way pedal plugged in backwards!
I'd like to ad...The finnish group with their selftitled album..."Tasavallan Presidentti" and actually a soloalbum from the guiterist in that band called "Tolonen", his name is Jukka Tolonen. Then the Swedish band Kebenekaise with the album "Resa mot okänt mål" (Travel towards unknown goal).
Great show. Late comment: The much maligned Yes Album cover contains an empty chair, which is a common symbol for absence. The manikin head gives the image another ghostly/surreal element.
love “Pillow Of Winds” and “Fearless” on Meddle, great songs. I like to put “Seamus” on to see my dogs’ reactions.
My Top 5:
1) Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame (1971)
2) Weather Report - Self Titled
3) Santana - III
4) Miles Davis - Live/Evil
5) Yes - Fragile
Great show. What part of Chicago do Luis and George live in? Love the City of Chicago. My Mom's side of the family is from there and we vacation there every year.
Great show!!
We're both Northsiders
@@georgelamie7001 Nice. We always stay in Wicker Park or Bucktown. Always enjoy your contributions to the show George. Cheers!!
I would like to mention - GILA Free Electric Sound to this Konversation
I agree ... Jethro Tull from Stand Up through Stormwatch is a contender for strongest string of albums ever made, including how good Bursting Out is as a live album. I love Pink Floyd, ELP, Elton John, Beatles, Zappa, Rush ... gotta go with Tull.
Too old to rock-'n'-roll too young to die ...not a big fan of that album.
@@МаксРогозин-е1ю well ... that would be the only album from in that span that I don't love, so agree with you there as well. It has some good songs but Ian's 'observer of the gritty social fabric' phase had run its course. so 10 out of 11 or whatever is not too bad.
I saw a few Vertigo copies of Acquiring the Taste held up. I don't know about the vinyl, but those CD versions contain a glitch (the 'bend') on the opening of the title track (maybe it even sounds cool, in a way.) The copy Steven held up (BGO, also the one I own) has the glitch removed; Steven, don't be so rough on the 2 on 1 package - you got the right copy of AtT. 😉 Just thought that this might be of some interest to a few of you. (Fantastic album, btw.)
I did not know that KV. Not often I get it right!
Yes I also have the 2 on 1 package you and Steven Reid have of GG-Acquiring the Taste. I didn’t know that!
South side of the Sky is in my top 3 Yes song...also Perpetual Change is smokin!
Lol poor Ken. Chad was after him from the off haha! Great stuff

My top 3 : Nursery Crime, number one by a million miles, Tarkus, Aqualung. Can't pick a Fusion album cos I don't know what Fusion is, which shows how ignorant I am :) Thanks again lads.
After your mention. I downloaded the Comus album First Utterance. Reminds me of Phallus Dei by Amon Duul II with some Roger Chapman, Quintessence & The Incredible String Band mixed in. Very Pagan. Next time I climb the Glastonbury Tor this should be playing on my headphones.
My top 15:
1. Comus- First Utterance
2. Flower Travellin Band- Satori
3. Joakim Skogsberg- Jola Rota (Freak Folk)
4. VDGG- Pawn Hearts
5. Magma- 1001

14. Elp- Pictures at an exebition
15. Tull- Aqualung
Yes , Comus First Utterance my number 1 too. Incredible album, one of the scariest I've heard. Drip Drip such a macabre masterpiece.
@@МаксРогозин-е1ю You have great taste! Have you heard Jola Rota by Joakim Skogsberg? It's another scary Freak Folk album but very different! Amazing album!
@@bertkarlsson1421 never heard but thanks for recommendation. What about Spirogyra? Love Barbara Gaskin 's voice but musically they're not so intense as Comus.
@@МаксРогозин-е1ю I listened to their
first album a few years ago, I don't remember that much. I'll revisit it!
My 1-5 are usual suspect masterpieces and all prog, yet jazz/fusion is my 6-10: Tribute to Jack Johnson -Miles Davis, London Scene -Fela Kuti, Mwandishi -Herbie Hancock, Journey in Sachidananda -Alice Coltrane, Inner Mounting Flame -Mahavishnu Orchestra.
That list is smokin' hot!!! The Miles and Mahavishnu albums are bona fide classics, and I love me some Herbie. Kudos for the Fela Kuti mention; it blew my mind when I heard Chuck bring his name up in passing on one of the 'A-Z' segments some months ago.
Just 5 titles!? If hard pressed my top five for 1971 are:
5. Caravan - "In the Land of Grey and Pink"
4. Yes - "The Yes Album"
3. Mahavishnu Orchestra "Inner Mountain Flame"
2. Van der Graaf Generator - "Pawn Hearts"
1. Pink Floyd - "Meddle"
Great to see all of you again after some time. btw, any chance you guys introduce yourselves, like what you do in life? a bit about each of you?
5. Aqualung - Jethro Tull
4. Meddle - Pink Floyd
3. The Yes Album - Yes
2. Live Evil - Miles Davis
1. Look at Yourself - Uriah Heep
This prompted me to pullout my mini-disc(yea, I said mini-disc) collections of self-made Progcomps(1969-81) and listen to this year. No Fusion on these, just Prog or I would have to put it in LP4 mode.
I love it when Ken mentions Still Life, it's such a good album.
Who doesn't have Mwandishi but the other two? Ya, gotta get that one to finish up that great trilogy of albums.
1971 was a great year for music in general, but here's my top five prog/fusion albums
1. Barclay James Harvest - Once Again
2. Uriah Heep - Salisbury
3. Earth and Fire - Song of the Marching Children
4. Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame
5. Genesis - Nursery Cryme
Of the albums mentioned, I've got:
Mahavishnu - Inner Mounting Flame
Genesis - Nursery Crime
Yes - The Yes Album, Fragile
Jethro Tull - Aqualung
Santana - III
Of these, I've listened to Inner Mounting Flame the most.
The others, besides being familiar with the "hits", I need to revisit.
5. Meddle - Pink Floyd
4. Nursery Cryme - Genesis
3. Look At Yourself - Uriah Heep
2. Tarkus - E. L.P.
1. Fragile - Yes
So glad Faust & Amon Duul II got mentioned in the end, but somehow no one mentioned Can - Tago Mago or Gong - Camembert Electrique. I mean, how can you forget Tago Mago???
1) JT - Aqualung
2) G - Nursery
3) PF - Meddle
HM: Nektar - Journey, Yes - Fragile , Yes - The Yes Album
Great show, I was 13.. Can't believe I'm older than Ken. What a year 1971. Got married for the first time....just kidding...
Pete can you post everyone’s lists? Cheers from The Captain
Not that many (jazz/rock) fusion albums to choose from yet from 1971-still early days. My faves:
Brian Auger's Oblivion Express & A Better Land (proggy too)
Howard Roberts - Antelope Freeway
Jukka Tolonen - Tolonen!
Larry Coryell/Eleventh House - Basics
Mahavishnu - Inner Mounting Flame (quite possibly my overall #1)
Osibisa - s/t
For Prog there's a lot more choice so only listing bands A-F here (there are quite a few really good ones):
Abstract Truth - Silver Trees & Totum
Ardo Dombec - s/t
Argent - Ring Of Hands (great record!)
Audience - The House On The Hill
Bakery - Memento
Barclay James Harvest - Once Again & Barclay James Harvest and Other Short Stories
Black Widow - s/t
Blast Furnace - s/t
Clear Blue Sky - Destiny
Clouds - Up Above Our Heads
Culpeper's Orchard - s/t
Deep Feeling - s/t
East Of Eden - s/t
Fields - s/t
Flea On The Honey - s/t
Fred - s/t
Fresh Maggots - s/t
Frumpy - Frumpy 2
Fuzzy Duck - s/t
Agree with everything I knew in that, wouldn't know how to rank them. My honourable mentions would have to include Once Again by BJH. A band not up there with the greats and this album is not without a dud or two, but some marvellous mellotron work and She Said is a stonker of an opener. For me those early albums had a wonderful atmosphere that the music didn't always quite live up to.
1- Magma : 1001 ° Centigrades
2- Soft Machine : Fourth
3- Egg : The Polite Force
4- Gentle Giant : Acquiring The Taste
5- Mahavishnu Orchestra : The Inner Mounting Flame
Excellent list! Of course, I have to comment on the Magma album; not only did it make your list, you chose it as top pick. Awesome in my book. Love that album!
@@knightvisioniixv Love this Magma record. Thanks!
“ right off” -Miles Davis is the crowning prog jewel of ‘71
Fully agree. Enormous piece of music. McLaughlin off the grid
George, I accept that you don't "like" The Clap, but are you willing to concede that it's incredible guitar playing, the style and technical refinement of which made it possible for Howe to do the things he did on the electric tracks?
1. Yes - Yes Album
2. Genesis - Nursery Cryme
3. King Crimson - Islands
4. Jethro Tull - Aqualung
5. Pink Floyd - Meddle
I'll do 5 à la Ken, no classic and Hall of Famers (in no order) :
1- Marsupilami - Arena
2- Arhtur Brown/Kingdom Come - Galactic Zoo Dossier
3- Dr. Z - Three Parts To My Soul (Spiritus, Manes Et Umbra)
4- Frumpy - Frumpy 2
5- I Giganti - Terra In Bocca
Gravy Train A ballad of a peaceful man imho also.
Galactic Zoo is a great choice.Such an original album that sounds like nothing else ! A touch of genius it is.
@@paulkazakoff9231 This album is pure creative juice. Wonderful stuff.
Another great show. My list is very easy to compile with nothing obscure:
1. Nursery Cryme
2. Meddle
3. Aqualung
4. The Yes Album
5. Fragile
Honourable mention - Led Zeppelin IV. Granted - pun intended - Zeppelin were not prog rock. However, they did dabble with prog on some of their tracks.
Nektar Remember the Future
Yes Close to the Edge
Wishbone Ash Argus
Moody Blues Every good Boy
Argent Hold your Head Up
Focus Moving Wavea
Remember the Future is 1973
@@chutch15 I guess I didn't see the 1971, I was just listing my favorite Prog!😂
Now I'll have to look at the date on all of them!🤣
@Chad Hutchinson I saw them IN 1973 so I guess I saw the original!💯🤟
Argus from 1972 but fantastic album of course.

Tago Mago, In the Land of Grey and Pink, "Tarkus" the song, Nursery Cryme, Acquiring the Taste, Aqualung, Islands, Pawn Hearts, The Yes Album, Fragile
Pawn hearts is in my top three records of all time at least… a majority of the following records were also released this year
Also when I was in NY, Steve Keeler didn’t have any of the rock fantasy store shirts in my size:/ lol
in alphabetical order :
The big names
Emerson, La & Palmer - Tarkus
Focus - Moving Waves
Genesis - Nursery Crime
Gentle Giant - Acquiring The Taste
King Crimson - Lizard
Moody Blues, The - Every good boy deserves favour
Pink Floyd - Meddle
Yes - Fragile
some mentions :
Beggars Opera - Waters of change
Caravan - In the land of grey and pink
Jacques Michel - S.O.S.
Strawbs - From the witchwood
Syrinx - Long lost relatives
Lizard is from 1970. Islands perhaps? Good album but for me weakest from 1969 - 74 King Crimson releases.
Lizard charted only in mars 1971 in USA, and Islands in february 1972. But thank you for the correction !
1. Yes - The Yes Album
2. Genesis - Nursery Crime
3. Miles Davis - Tribute To Jack Johnson
4. Yes - Fragile

1971!
I'm limited as to what I can select, so my selections are...
1. The Yes Album - Yes
2. Fragile - Yes
3. AuqaLung - Jethro Tull
4. The Inner Mounting Flame - Mahavishnu Orchestra
5. Nursery Cryme - Genesis
Oh my just the look on Kens face while most of them reaching for Mahavishnu Orchestra he does not give a fuck about it it is priceless
I like to see Eric’s face when Pawn Hearts is mentioned. I am also surprised that nobody made a wisecrack, especially Luis, when George said he doesn’t like The Clap he really doesn’t like The Clap.
I don’t think the clap is very popular with anybody. A missed opportunity.
Thanks ssp! Me & VDGG just don’t mix 😂
Oh, it's great when George's favorite 'Asshat' is brought up. Watching both George and Eric? Yup. Chuck gets giggling, too. But NOTHING...and I mean NOTHING beats watching Pete's ol' poker face when someone brings up Magma (which Luis did in passing), and *especially* when Martin brings up something like Nirvana, or the many punk / post-punk bands he loves talking about.
😂😁
@@knightvisioniixv lol
The piece is called Clap. The clap is something else entirely. What Procul Harum called a souvenir of London.
@@donaldanderson6604 I know that, I know what The Clap is, that’s my point.
Jethro Tull: aqualung
Van Der Graaf Generator: pawn hearts
ELP: tarkus
Alice Coltrane: journey in satchidananda

Derek Bailey: solo guitar vol. 1
Zappa/The Mothers: Fillmore east-June 1971

Too many great albums to choose from, but:
Nursery Cryme
From The Witchwood
In The Land Of The Grey and Pink
The Yes Album
Every Good Boy Deserves Favour
Also want to mention:
Carla Bley Escalator Up The Hill
Soft Machine 4
How underrated was Golden Earring's Seven Tears from 1971.Prog enough and Quirky and it' Heavy!
G.E. have more great albums than you realize.Truly an excellent band and I think in some ways underrated !
@@paulkazakoff9231 Together and 7 Tears are my Favourite albums by Earring!
"Golden Earring" (aka "Yellow and Blue"), "Seven Tears", "Together", "Moontan", "Switch", "To the Hilt"- six album run. "Kill Me (Ce Soir) is the best fusion of rock band and orchestra IMHO
Yes, Fragile
Mahavishnu Orchestra, Inner Mounting Flame
Focus; Moving Waves
Genesis, Nursery Cryme
Pink Floyd, Meddle
(Honorable mentions: Gentle Giant, Acquiring the Taste; Dom, Edge of Time; Ash Ra Tempel, First; Can, Tago Mago)
Suggestion for a theme : favorite guitar/keyboard teams! would work for prog and for rock.
Good idea!!!
Hackett/Banks!
