Hammill is the world's greatest unknown musician. He is a poet, a composer and a singer, all to the utmost of human capacity. It is telling that so few recognise this.
VDGG and Crimson have always been by favourite prog bands, I think they both do the extreme dymanics better than any other bands and this is evident from what Martyn and RF are talking about.
HAMMILL & FRIPP!!!!!!!!! Due GENI VERI a confronto!!!!!!! Musica con la M maiuscola con LORO!!!!!! Hanno collaborato spesso fra di loro!!!!! E credo che siano anche amici e penso vi sia anche stima reciproca!!!!!!!!! Io sono appassionato di PROGRESSIVE ROCK e le bands dei VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR e KING CRIMSON sono nel nutrito NOVERO delle mie PREFERITE senz'altro!!!!!!!!!!
I heard VDGG on an independent radio station 7 years ago. It was Lemmings. I was astounded, I didn't know whether it was super early Iron Maiden or super early Judas Priest lol. That took me down a rabbithole that also led me to KC.
He was, but he didn't use his voice as his main instrument, especially an instrument that would break ground the way his guitar did. Hammill used his voice as his main instrument, and certainly broke ground with it in a big way.
Mentioning Peter Hammill in the same sentence as Hendrix is silly. Hendrix spoke to an entire generation. Peter Hammill, to a relative few progheads. I love VDG, but let's get real.
Since 1982 Peter Hammill has done us several times the honor of comming to play in Greece. Robert Fripp on the other hand, never bothered.

@@mushroomCSI don't know why but very few listen to him today.
Peter Hammill major major talent. No comparison.
Hendrix was the Hammill of the guitar

Nice tribute to the great man
Two great talents - love them both.
The Vital live version of Pioneers Over C is the greatest vocal performance of all time 🤪
I love the sleepwalkers section from this album.... absolutely great kkkkkkk
“H to He…” was the first VDGG record I heard, back in the 70’s and I was hooked there and then.
Aerosol Gray Machine & The Least We Can Do Is Wave worthy mentions of VDGG discography

Wonderful. Martyn is obviously comfortable with Fripp, singing examples for him. And Fripp is obviously comfortable with Martyn.
VDGG-Saw them at Newcastle City Hall on the "6 Bob" tour and have been hooked ever since..

I'm a huge VDGG and PH fan from NZ. I did see him play in London when I lived there; it was just after Black Box came out.
Hammill Is the best
Really like Hammill. I'm from NZ.

Am I wrong? ... or does Peter Hammill sound hauntingly similar to this: th-cam.com/users/shortsc4xRRQWvyHY
Hendrix was a singer.
