Ken slaying KISS was golden!! 😉😂
I see what you did there 😂
One of greatest highlights ever.
Ken KISSing Slayer woulda been better...
Kiss are totally lame
Hotter than Hell was OK
"I hate a lot of bands"
" We know!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hate: Poison
Overrated: Boston
Underrated: Thin Lizzy
Love: Lynyrd Skynyrd
Over and Over: Jethro Tull
Got me into music: Kiss
Changed life: Black Sabbath
Surprised Me: Blackberry Smoke
Guilty pleasure: Adam and the Ants
Live: Iron Maiden
Missed Seeing: The Wildhearts
Boston is rated appropriately, in my opinion.
Chuck always makes great choices - good taste.
Much appreciated, thanks
Wide taste / genres. Very considered and respectful
I can’t tell you how much I look forward to this show every week. This may have been the best episode of all. Thank you gentleman!
Thanks Lawrence
Hope George is feeling better. Like his dry humor. Great show guys. Very entertaining even if the music talk is over my head.
Feeling better this morning, thank you!
Ditto re George. Legend of the prog seat
George is da man.
@@georgelamie7001 Good to hear, George
Another great show, love out Pete keeps coming up with these original ideas. A big thanks to everyone that took part, hope George is ok.
The moment when Chuck was about to reveal the band he hates and Ken subtly said "Kiss" was hilarious. The whole episode was a lot of fun.
Band I hate: Poison (need I say more) and Ed Sheeran (the acceptance of musical mediocrity)
Band that’s overrated: Motley Crue
Band that’s underrated: Magnum and Saxon (they deserved more)
Band I love: Iron Maiden
Band I can listen over & over: Pink Floyd (the run from Meddle to The Wall is sublime) and Rush (their entire catalogue).
Band that made me fall in love with music: Queen (they sounded and were larger than life) and Def Leppard (they were my gateway into harder rock)
Band that changed my life: Pink Floyd (music could be more)
Band that surprised me: The Beatles (so young, so brief, so profilic and so bloody good) and Riverside (gateway to looking at bands beyond North America and western Europe)
Guilty Pleasure: Tori Amos (few channel uncomfortable intimacy better) and A-Ha.
Band I should've seen live: Pink Floyd (with Waters) at LIVE8
Favourite Band to see live: Maiden, AC/DC and Rush (no other bands fill me with more joy).
I too hate Ed Sheeran along with Sam Smith . Nothing wrong with your guilty pleasure A-ha who I’ve seen live and can report they’re very good in concert
Foot of the mountain by them is a good album to investigate
Love Fishbone! Thanks Chuck, one of the best live bands I've ever seen. So underrated
A superb band, should be far more famous than they are.
This was fun. Love when the panels talk about other genres
Maybe more prog metal, but not too heavy. Love the prog seat
This was Great Guys, very entertaining. Even as a KISS fan I was laughing my head off when Ken was having a go at them.
As was I Brad!
Me too Brad
I agree, Ken was spot on though - Kiss can be highly annoying!!
Band I hate: ?
Overrated: Radiohead
Underrated: Nektar
Band I love: Van der Graaf Generator
Can listen to over and over: Gentle Giant (Can replace VDGG and GG)
Got me into music: Pink Floyd
Changed my life: Genesis (Peter Gabriel era)
Surprised me: King Crimson, only had listened to ITCOTCK, and Starless but apparently they have way too many different and awesome stuff.
Guilty pleasure: Don't think there is any, even tried listening to KPOP on the off chance that I may like them.
Live: Never seen any bands live. I live in Nepal and was born in 2000. Guess I am a bit new to music listening.
Nice call on Nektar. They don't get enough love.
I really don't like punk, but Chuck talking about Wire has convinced me to give them a shot.
Chuck has amazing taste. I think his open-mindedness is something to envy.
@@nectarinedreams7208 thank you very much, I personally love Punk Music, yet it’s bands that progressed past the three chord shtick into what would later the “Post-Punk” movement. Wire was one of those bands that sounded radically different by the time the album “The Ideal Copy” was released.
Their second album “Chairs Missing” and “154” was the band’s natural progression from edgy Punk to Avant/Psychedelic Pop-Punk.
Like any form of music genre, you can’t just single out the entire genre as schlock when there are so many great bands that are waiting for one’s ears and open mind to attend to.
Wire is among so many of the band’s from the original British Punk scene outside of The Sex Pistols and The Clash that were far more innovative and interesting.
The Adverts, Stranglers, The Jam, Buzzcocks, The Damned were all pretty much brilliant bands yet none could find a niche here in the U.S.
@@chuckazeee I also believe all genres have potential for good music, but I have yet to find a punk band I really enjoy. I like some punk adjacent bands like The Limit, Killing Joke and Death (70's band), but that is the closest I have gotten so far. Sex Pistols and The Damned are ok, but not something I put in my CD/record player. I'll keep looking.
I'll definitely agree that Wire is an interesting band, but I don't think they are the band I'm looking for. They had an hypnotic quality I can appreciate, but only one of the 10-12 random songs I listened to yesterday (A Question of Degree) did something for me. I might give them another shot, now that I know what to expect.
@@StrappingOldLad it’s a mindset, truth be told as mentioned the Post-Punk scene was far more interesting, while on the American side the Alternative (Post-Punk) bands were just as brilliant.
The Ramones after a while became stale due to the lack of inventiveness.
I love Chuck's picks!!!
For Chuck - Was waiting for your picks as usual and loved them all, especially Depeche!!!
Thanks Keith, I sorry I ran through my picks yet that’s my passion.
For Eric: I run an ukulele club at my school. One year in our video contest, a student covered a Ramones song. A couple of days after I posted it, my phone blew up with comments. Turns out CJ Ramone (replaced Dee Dee) saw the video, started promoting it on his websites and ended up winning the student an ukulele. Contacted him and he got in touch with the student (who was really struggling at the time). Awesome guy. Will forever love the Ramones and their fans because of this. CJ is a truly great person.
Hey Nohea 😀I'm a Ramones fan 1st show Dee Dee played, muddy sound.
All the other times CJ 😀he sounded great😀 He made them sound great 😀
Ukelele club? How often do you get beaten up per week? 😂 Sorry buddy, had to do it.
Mike, that’s fantastic, great story. Loving hearing that CJ did that for your student. Thanks for watching 👍
@@vitus33 We're actually a very popular group on campus. Kids are thrilled to have an intro to playing music outside of a class. Many find a love for performing and move into choir or drama. And when I carry it traveling, everyone wants to talk to me and play them a song! I've met so many people traveling because of the Uke, is great!
@@Jermeister12 And a super nice guy. Glad to hear you enjoyed his playing and that he lifted up the band.
I cheered when Chuck Said The Police …they had everything , musicianship, intelligence,songs , never rehearsed ,hated/loved each other ,exciting. And through Sting and his Blue Turtles band I got into Branford Marsalis, Kenny Kirkland and still my favourite drummer Omar Hakim. Which led on to Miles , weather report , Jaco ,Coltrane ,Mingus and Monk. So yeah The Police changed my life thanks for mentioning them Chuck 👍🏻
I am mistaken yet again, The Police did NOT play in Uniondale Long Island in 1984. I spoke to my sister and we saw Sting in 1985.
@Blamelouis yes, The Police began my love of music way back in 1980. The first album I ever purchased was “Zenyatta Mondatta”.
@@chuckazeee yes Chuck that was one of my first albums as well and it still sounds great after all these years .
A single decade makes a big diff. I'm about 10 years older than most/all of the guys...I was already into "Miles, Weather Report, Jaco, Coltrane, Mingus and Monk" years before The Police. MTV, of all things, got me into The Police. GHOST IN THE MACHINE was my 1st album by The Police. A mere 10 years difference. ;-)
It was either Ken or Luis that recommended Discipline a couple months ago. I found their album "Unfold Like Staircase" and absolutely love it. Best surprise or new find for me of the year. Thanks guys.
That makes me very happy. I will Tell Matthew Parmenter. Cheers!
@@lahloonatic Same goes for me, Luis, you are actually more expressive with the English language than thousands of people here in the USA, and when you highlight a band more than once and as descriptively as you do, I take note and I want to check it out. And sure enough, that Discipline album blew me away, so I appreciate that too.
@@kevinmcgauhey9813 Awesome man! Thank you!
Make sure you pick up To Shatter All Accord - I actually like this one a bit more than Unfolded
@@jimigroov I will, thanks for the recommendation. This is how we spread the music like we did in the 80's
Entertaining show gentlemen, respect all opinions and always learn something.
Mr.F 👍
Any chance you guys ever talk a bit about yourselves? Who are you guys? What do you do in life? How did you get to this channel? Could we have a video without albums? Just talk about you guys? I mean we know a lot about Ken because he is in the business for a long time and he has loads of stories on so many videos. I know Luis is a guitarist. Not sure I know anything else.
Band I hate - Nickelback
Band I love - Queen
Band I find overrated - Linkin Park (May Chester Bennington RIP, but I never liked their music.)
Band I find underrated - John Mayer (He is a great musician and guitarist that never gets the respect he deserves.)
Band I can listen to over and over again - Van Halen
Got Me Into Music - The Rolling Stones (My older brother is a huge Stones fan and had all the Stones albums, they were the gateway band getting me into rock music.)
Changed my life - Prince (He will always be the musician that got me seriously loving all different genres of music. Everything from funk, rock, psychedelia, jazz, soul, r&b, pop, punk, new wave. You name it Prince could play it.)
Surprised me - The Smashing Pumpkins
Guilty Pleasure - Duran Duran (Never really considered them a guilty pleasure, Duran Duran to me were way more than just a pretty boy pop band. Simon Le Bon, John Taylor, Nick Rhodes, Roger Taylor and Andy Taylor were always real musicians that came out in the MTV era. Duran Duran's music was always more post punk, new wave with synth pop. Also Depeche Mode was great too.)
Wish I have seen - The Rolling Stones
Best live act - Prince (Seen my idol in concert numerous times when he was still living and every time I saw Prince in concert he put on an incredible live show.
Little side note, I usually agree with Chuck's picks but I freaking love the Clash. They were the band that got me into punk when I was very young. Great show and I really enjoyed it.
Love The Smashing Pumpkins
Shirley Horn is about as far from a guilty pleasure as you can get.
EDIT: Yay for Fishbone! Interesting factoid: In that iconic scene in Say Anything where John Cusack is holding the boombox over his head blasting "In Your Eyes" to Ione Skye's bedroom window, the song he was actually playing while filming was Fishbone's "Bonin' in the Boneyard."
One of the funniest prog seats ever. Ken and Luis on fire. And for the record not into Kiss or Creedence. Great shout out from Eric for Sherinian. Hope George was OK, because I love his input on these shows.
Thanks Tony, appreciate you watching the show!
I'm alive, Tony. Tune in to 4FF in a couple days and see!
@@georgelamie7001 I'll always be there for 4FF. Will check out Panzerballett. George, just started listening to is Kick the Cat and impressed thus far. Do you have an opinion of them. Cheers Tony
@@ericporter344 just sent a similar message to George. Have a listen to Kick the Cat. I think you would like them. Loads of guitar and no vocals, double thumbs up. Cheers Tony
@@tonypeake467 Tony, love them, just saw them live about 3 weeks ago, they did a short tour. Check out our SOT series 4Fusion Friday, we had Kick the Cat’s guitarist Chris Siebold on the show. I believe it was the September episode
Pete’s absolutely correct! Wishbone ash is so underrated! Great show , men!
Thank you George for picking U2
great stuff. i would have opted for Foo Fighters as overrated. Surprised nobody said that . Right on with Kiss. Hilarious!! Good stuff guys. Thanks for the laughs.
Foo Fighters is a great pick for overrated.
Hands down one of my favorite SOT shows of all time! Today we went to the Church of @LuisNasser! I was waiting for his turn at the pulpit the most! Just like @EricPorter, KISS was my gateway to rock music! The way @KenGolden attacked KISS with his baseball bat had me LMAO!!!! Everyone else did a great job sharing their likes and dislikes! A very therapeutic show for everyone!
Agreed what a hoot of a show
Thanks Vincent!
@@ericporter344 Thanks Eric for the shout out of Derek Sherinian. Love Planet X. Appreciate your input as always. You have a nice bond with George. Tony from Australia
@@tonypeake467 thanks Tony
The church of Luis Nasser, That's hilarious. Cheers!
What an amazing episode! ❤️
This is what makes this channel so meaningful.
I hope this topic of discussion is often revisited.
Great job!
Awesome show! Shout out to Chuck for mentioning the band Wire! Excellent stuff. 154 is one of my favourite albums of all time.
Brilliant stuff 👍 SOT ❤
I loved George's list. Bands from Radiohead to the Beastie Boys to Genesis. Just awesome.
Another great & entertaining show!! These guys really know what they're talking about. I agree with so much! 😊
How can someone dislike Ramones?! Come on, Eric!
But like always a great episode.
The whole Kiss disussion was priceless!
What a fun and entertaining episode.
Thanks John
Absolutely Golden Ken. Hit all the correct targets.
The star of the show, except for the pissing comedy of Luis on Kiss and U2
Great fun show guys enjoyed it
Great show! Here are my answers...
Hate: Van Morrison
Over rated: Pink Floyd
Under rated: Mike Keneally
Band I love: Van der Graaf Generator and Peter Hammill solo
Over and over: Frank Zappa
Fall in Love: Elton John, specifically Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Changed My Life:Jethro Tull
Suprised: Grateful Dead
Guilty Pleasure: Devo
Should have seen:Deep Purple
Love to see live: IQ
Greatest Band Ever: KISS?
Worst Band Ever: The Doors, CCR?
Have I landed on the Bizzaro Planet?
😂
Tell me which one said Kiss was the greatest band ever so I can send Ken to kick their ass.
I thought I'd wake up from this nightmare, but I wasn't sleeping.
Band I hate: Nickelback
Overrated: Foo Fighters
Underrated: The Little Willies (Country supergroup with Norah Jones, Richard Julian and Jim Campilongo)
Band I love: The Beatles
Can listen to over and over: McCartney (he's got 3 or 4 bad albums in his discography, but I love everything else he did, probably the most natural gifted melody writer there is)
Got me into music: The Rolling Stones ("Flowers")
Changed my life: Miles Davis ("Kind Of Blue" turned me onto jazz)
Surprised me: Radiohead (thought I wouldn't like them, but come to find they're awesome especially "OKC" and "In Rainbows")
"Guilty pleasure": Backstreet Boys (don't mind them when they come on the radio, I like a good vocal arrangement)
Should have seen but have not: Keith Jarrett (saw both Herbie and Chick twice, but never saw Keith, though he's my favourite)
@Ursula, outstanding list you have there.
Keith Jarrett= The Bach of our generation.
He's in another level.
I had a chance to see him but was "too busy"
I hope he stays as healthy as he can post stroke.
wow, great show, needed this
Great show. PERIOD. Best of health to my man GEORGE 👍💯
Thanks Gary. Excused for missing chat? :)
@@georgelamie7001 / good am. Hope all is good on your end 👍💯
@@georgelamie7001 / your excused. Nothing will be submitted to your file ! But , continue to keep up appearances. 👍💯
Thanks as always Gary!! 👍
@@ericporter344 / Lmao. Your. KISS. Album rock and roll over segment with Luis and Ken/ LEGENDARY. Loved it 👍💯
Well, Pete, it looks like you'll have your chance to see Peter Gabriel next year. He's just announced tour dates for Europe and I think the US dates are soon to follow. As a young fan I'm hoping to see him for the first time. His shows look spectacular. I'm just as excited for his new album, too.
I need to spend more attention to the Prog Seat. Some guys here like Luis and Chuck like bands that are totally in my wheelhouse.
I would add George and Ken. Their knowledge of music is awesome
This is an incredibly knowledgeable panel with interesting opinions and a sense of humour.
^^Agree with Mars Volta, it just escapes me.
Yes on Tori Amos and Tracy Chapman Luis. Rage Against The Machine and Primus are great live.
One day I hope to confirm!
Would love to see RATM and Primus. Full on hoot
Great show guys we had a ton of laughs last night doing it 😂😂
You guys too on HVS, great show
Another great show gentlemen, and excellent topic. Everyone from the team brings much to the table, and it
often amounts to a learning experience for me since Prog music isn't my forte. That said, it was good to see
everyone step out of "character" a little bit and broaden their areas of coverage.
I'd like to comment on a few of the responses and offer a few suggestions of my own.
First, Ken's rant about KISS was hilarious. Don't hold back, tell us how you really feel!
I understand they're an easy target for naysayers, and are one of those bands you get or you don't. I can
appreciate both sides for and against. That said, Ken and Luis, you're both knowledgable and share terrific
insights but be careful not to get caught up in confirmation bias and cloud your judgment. "Dynasty" is not
a disco album, the next was a Power Pop experiment, and the musicianship rose up a notch in the non-make up
years. Gripe about them all you want, but they've lasted till now with millions of records sold. Ask a band
like GWAR how many albums they've sold in the last decade. Gimmicks carry you just so far.
Steven: You were spot-on with Y&T as underrated! One of the best hard rock bands from the late '70s still in
existence, though I think it's only Meniketti now. They should have become much bigger. I can still listen
to records like "Down for the Count" and marvel at the guitar work and drumming. Awesome band.
Eric: I respect your opinion about Punk music, and this may be presumptuous of me, but are you basing your
opinion on those sort of "birth of Punk" bands from back in the day? The Ramones, Pistols, Clash, etc.
carved out a stylistic niche in their time, but Punk's evolved over time and I'd like to call your attention
to several bands that embody Punk, or maybe more fittingly, a metal-punk hybrid, that feature excellent
songwriting and musicianship that I think might inspire you to take a closer look: Rise Against, Strung Out,
Thursday, Propaghandi, and AFI (more Gothic, mainstream), great band for over two decades.
I highly recommend you, and Pete for that matter, check them out and see if they don't change your mind.
Chuck: I'd be interested to hear your thoughts about the aforementioned, and any others you'd suggest. I'm
reeling these off at a moment's notice, and there are many more I'm missing.
Guilty pleasures: Great concept, not to be taken literally right? How about Benny Mardones, apparent one-hit
wonder of "Into the Night" fame back in 1980. That man could sing! Anything by The Knack, so much more than
"My Sharona," and a very talented, musically tight band. Great stuff, keep up the good work!
Band that changed my life: Rush. I learned from them to be true to yourself, even when the world around you disagrees. The individual has to go up against society's rules and conceptions just like the man in the star logo. Everybody's got to deviate from the norm. When you're 12 years old, that's some chicken soup for the soul right there. (And their music's not too shabby either!)
The fact that Wire got mentioned in this show made my day.
Kudos to Mr. Golden for mentioning two of my non-prog favorites: Squeeze and Joe Jackson! I’ve seen Squeeze in concert about 10 or 12 times and Mr. Jackson, the Jackanape from Jackaloop Junction, (sadly) only once. Squeeze always put on a great, lively show and it’s quite fun watching the ladies dance.
I was at that Philadelphia Marillion show that Chad attended. My friend and l followed them from NYC to Philly to Washington, D.C. on that East Coast, USA swing of shows in 1992. Bonus points to The Chadster for mentioning The Fixx as well. Their debut album is a real corker, especially the deep tracks!
Major props to Chuck for bringing up Beastie Boys and Depeche Mode. I really dig the Violator CD and saw DM live, outdoors, at a giant football stadium in New Jersey on that tour in 1990 or 1991. Excellent show.
Yes! Luis brought up Tori Amos, big fan over here! Especially her Atlantic and Epic Records releases.
Cheers from Noo Yawk, ova heyah!
~8^ )
Eric, you lumped all punk together, but I suggest you listen to either The Damned or The Stranglers and you might like them. try “The Black Album” or Strawberries by The Damned and Rattus Norvegicus” “No more Heroes” by The Stranglers, also, more of a post punk band, but Siouxsie and The Banshees, specifically the albums with guitar player John McGeoch on them like “JuJu”. You are a guitar player and he is the most innovative guitar player from that era. Also the band Wire, all their albums are different and you should explore them. Great band.
ssp - based on my very limited listening experiences with punk music, it does nothing for me. I would not object to investigate some other bands
The damned are amazing. Not sure if Killing Joke qualify, but they are amazing too.
@@lahloonatic I would second Killing Joke.
Siuoxsie and The Banshees+Genesis (Visually)+The Cure=Killing Joke
Hate: Guns N'Roses
Overrated: Metallica
Underrated: Rival Sons
Love: Thin Lizzy
All day listen: The Who
Made me fall in love with music: The Beatles
Changed me: Led Zeppelin
Surprise: Soundgarden
Guilty pleasure: I don´t do that. Feel guilty for shit i like, but i can mention Massive Attack, just for the hell of it. Love 'em.
Should have seen: Rush
Favorite live: Motörhead
Great show! I'm not a Kiss fan so I thought Ken was hysterical and correct!
I love the way George answered the questions and his interpretations of them was spot on! Cracking episode...! I also loathe REM and U2!
Fun show.
Luis I am from Ireland and I agree completely with you regarding U2! Great selections again especially from Chuck
Thanks👍
I've never heard of anyone who doesn't like CCR. First time in 50 years.
1:06:12 Doom was a genius^^
Chuck has great taste. This show was very illuminating.
‘12 Gold Bars’ - get in! Every tune a winner!
You got that right Patrick!
u2 i was thinking them when George said it perfect
hopefully Pete there will be more shows as funny as this! How about the worst 5 albums in my collection? show
Fantastic episode .So enjoyed Ken , Steven , Louis and Eric combating ! Suggest you repeat same program and limit responses to prog bands only . I can't imagine the diversity there !
Thanks Kevin
Thanks Kevin, ITPS is always great fun to be a part of but this was a really good one!
One of the best episodes of In The Prog Seat ever. I absolutely loved this. It was so interesting listening to all the guys share stuff that we never get to hear about on the weekly podcast. I think we all received some personal insight into our favourite band of brothers through this little exercise, thanks Pete. Ken was hilarious and entertaining as ever, he's always worth the admission price. With regard to Luis's view on U2 - a lot of Irishmen (this one included) would fully concur. The only negative is the absence of Anthony. I'm sure he and Luis would have provided some entertaining banter about Jon Anderson and there would have been a high Jobson count..
👍👍 for the depeche mode mention chuck!
The reign of kindo! Fantastic choice
I agree with Eric on Blackberry Smoke. Charlie Starr is a great front man and always has killer tone.
Art 👍
My vote for underrated is the prog metal band Wilderun. Their album Veil of Imagination is masterful and totally epic. The obvious comparison is Opeth, but their I find their command of symphonic composition and overall song arrangement to be very unique. Listen to these guys!
Agree totally with Eric about Blackberry smoke, I have been a fan for over 10 years seen them every time they've been to the UK ,always a great show, set list changes every night also Charlie and the guys are always a pleasure to talk to. More people need to check this band out.
Thanks Ian, love that band!!
Can´t you guys do a whole show about bands you hate? Each one picks five, not for the sake of being negative, just for the fun of it! These rants are great😃Specially when there´s disagreement haha. Cheers!
Great show gentlemen. The stories made me laugh and cry! Chad's story about his buddy buying the tickets, driving to the gig and paying for dinner; that's a true friend. May I suggest you do a show on PUNK. Because of the time I grow up in 1970's-80's and the music press I read there was always a strict dichotomy between the serious Prog and Punk fans. It would be great to hear your opinions one day. Oh and just for laughs watching this with close caption/ subtitles is Hilarious!🤣🙃
As far as I know Pete is not really into punk but he likes some proto punk like MC5 and The Stooges, maybe also the New York Dolls. Not sure about the rest of the prog seat members.
Band I hate: Mars Volta
Overrated: Dream Theater
Underrated: Ash Ra Tempel
Band I love : Can
Can listen to over and over: Jethro Tull
Got me into music: Fleetwood Mac
Changed my life: Bowie
Surprised me: Mike Oldfield
Guilty pleasure: Spice Girls
Never got to see : Rush,King Crimson,VDGG
Best live: Motörhead
YES, THANK YOU SCIENTIST. Nice one George, my biggest problem is the singer's voice sometimes, but then again I'm a massive Dream Theater fan. And unlike Labrie, Salvatore at least sings in tune and can belt without making me cringe
George the only one who didn't offend me with a pick ha ha great show though
Lol
Perrey & Kingsley are phenomenal!! My favorite album is “The in Sound from way out! “ [1966]. They were ahead of their time IMHO
I'm sure they did some great stuff Fernando, but the Moog album isn't a classic!
@@TranquilityFireReid yeah totally agree with you 👍
@@TranquilityFireReid awww, you need to get Dick Hyman's Moog album.
My initial answers:
Band I hate: Guns and Roses
Overrated: Rolling Stones
Underrated: Camel
Band I love: Van der Graaf Generator
Can listen to over and over: Camel
Got me into music: early Genesis with Peter Gabriel
Changed my life: Jethro Tull
Surprised me: Roxy Music live in San Francisco this year.
'Guilty pleasure' : Abba
Should have seen but have not: The Kinks
Favorite live band: Dixie Dregs seeing them live in the early 80s.
Saw the Dregs when they toured a couple of years ago, great show
Sal ,I friggin LOVE Mr .Fantasy😀😀
Honeymoon Suite is a great band..
The big prize is also my favorite album from them.
Hell yeah !!! what a great LP I love it😀
Nice video...
Popcorn, what a tune!
Many Kansas fans in Europe for shore.
98.1 WOGL down here in philly was the "oldies" station in the 90s (when I was growing up) and it ruled.
Ty Magma is awesome!!!!
Great show! So many laughs guys including "yoghurt drooler". 🤣
After watching, there's one thing I know for sure I must try to see Morglbl live!!
Thanks for watching!! Check out Morglbl, mind blowing
@@ericporter344 Thanks Eric, I am a fan! Loved your antics with the Rock N Roll Over LP. Lol.
@@dtltmtgt thanks 😂
@@ericporter344 Is George OK?
@@dtltmtgt yes, he is feeling better
Ken's comments on KISS were truly golden. This was a classic the emperor has no clothes argument. This was the best rant in the history of the Sea of Tranquility. I like the way all the KISS supporters were turned into 10 year olds. This was a truly classic rant.
The 10 year old attitude was lame. Ken's comments WAS On point. Tells you a lot of the critic's objectivity. Ken knows his stuff.
Well I'm 62 years old, so I'll answer the live band question. I've seen in the 70s zeppelin, maiden, priest, ufo, purple, Coverdale, sabbath, rush every UK punk band...... But the 1 band from 1975 to 1983 that was just the best live were.... Queen by a mile, even the not so heavy numbers were a total different tune live!
George's acid kicked in too hard
Ronstadt!!!!! Thank you. Does it get any better?
Nope, golden pipes, such a lovely voice!
At least we’ll know the reason why if Ken & Chuck aren’t in future episodes 🤣🤣🤣
I love CCR & was introduced to their music thanks to quite a few movies in the 80s, one of them being Twilight Zone The Movie.
I prefer Kiss Alive albums to their studio albums, as the songs have more punch.
As for merchandise, aren’t all bands doing that now, from toys, alcohol, comics, puzzles etc? Kiss were basically ahead of the game.
We got to remember a lot of the bands back then were either paid peanuts or wasn’t getting paid at all even when they wrote their own songs due to dodgy contracts. Kiss were using their brains.
Pete took Chad’s hatred of CCR PERSONAL! 😂
So did I and probably many people! 🙄
Ditto Steve's pick of the Doors.
I don't think CCR are awful at all.I was brought up with them in the 60's and 70's and most people loved them for sure.They were very popular right ?
@@tonypeake467 I would have both in my top 20.
@@tonypeake467 Sorry Tony! 😀
The only thing funnier than knowing that Ken has probably spent every day for the last seven yrs kvetching about Orange Man is that Kiss has caused him just as much grief for nearly 50.
I’m with Pete, Eric, and Steven - Kiss is the band that made me fall in love with music. Like Pete, Kiss Destroyer was the first album (actually 8-track) that I bought with my own money. I didn’t care much for 80s Kiss because I had moved on to heavier bands and prog, but those 70s years were great. I still enjoy listening to those albums. No apologies to the haters😝
Bingo Mike! Thanks for watching

I absolutely loved the anti-KISS rant from Ken. After I watched it I wore a KISS 1977 tour shirt to work. This stuff is supposed to be fun. Don't take it personally, folks. Also enjoying the ongoing picks and commentary from Chuck and Luis regarding the, shall we say, narrow view of some prog fans. Well done, gentlemen.
Hi Steven I totally agree with you,status quo changed my life,as soon as I heard on the level round my friends house I was hooked for life
Such a great album Stephen and such an important band to so many people in the UK and across Europe.
Status Quo were my first intro to music and saw them live. Upgraded soon to Hendrix and ELP
@@tonypeake467 I don't get the upgraded part. Can't we just like them all in their own ways?
As a form of penance for the sin of blasphemy against The Lizard King I hereby request a UK Connection episode where Steven ranks the songs on The Doors' debut album.
🤣I'm sorry but my pain threshold just isn't high enough to do that!
@@TranquilityFireReid just out of curiosity Steven, were you a fan of Cream.
@@tonypeake467 No, not particularly Tony. I don't dislike them but I'm not into them. Ginger Baker was a monster behind the kit though and I love his playing on pretty much anything he touched.
I'm with you Ken 100% on Kiss.
Ken is my man!
^Wire, 1987's A Bell is a Cup, I love that track Kidney Bingos
Much agreed, the entire album is a stunner.
