Indeed! I was fortunate enough to see them open for Wishbone Ash,and they were the better act.
Was unable to find any records here in BFE;years later I got the Pressure Points cd--all that I could find.(pre internet).
Now available on DVD.



Thanks Don! I'll have to get the DVD - have the CD.

You guys need to update the progressive rock bands you listen to.
Here's one from Sweden, Seventh Wonder. Sort of sound like Dream Theater, except with a much more listenable vocalist.
The JETGLO finish name should be officially changed to JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

Just remembered Transatlantic. Check out their song My New World for a tasty introduction to them.

Jethro Tull, indeed.
And also Spinal Tap. Sorry. :oops:

I just gave away my ticket to see Tony Levin and Adrian Belew with the Les Paul Trio. :( Wouldn't you know it I'm sick the day of the show.
