Both are amazing! I remember back around 1980 or so, somebody called a local FM station in the middle of the night and told the DJ there were northern lights visible. He announced on-air that he had to perfect music to go with it then played Echoes in its entirety.

Echoes still gives me chills sometimes. The Version I posted is from Live at Pompeii. Amazing.

Also Stevie Wonder’s “Living for the City” they would sometimes play the whole thing.

Bit of Trivia- did you know Wakeman played keyboards on Al Stewart's Orange?

Wakeman pops up everywhere. He plays piano on Bowie's Hunky Dory album, notably on "O You Pretty Things". So when Peter Noone decides to release a cover version as a single, who does he get for piano? Bowie, who didn't even pplay it on his own version. (Also, not Bowie's fault, but one of the worst interpretations of a cover ever. Utterly decaffeinated and souless).

Mmmmm, Can’s “Future Days” and “Bel Air,” plus Sonic Youth’s “Trilogy” at the end of Daydream Nation.

A friend of mine is a critically acclaimed LA-based mastering engineer who re-mastered Who’s Next from the studio masters. He was kind enough to gift me a CDR burned direct from the master tapes that included those bonus tracks. Sound quality is much, MUCH clearer than the pressed CD and certainly enhances the music - truly a classic album!

Live at Leeds!


Arguably the best live album ever.

Zappa was great. And he wrote Hillary's theme song Any Way the Wind Blows.
