A real masterpiece of its own

Quote:

As unlikely as the idea seems today to use the suspense-filled stories of Edgar Allan Poe as the basis for an album of rock tunes, listeners in the 1970s--who were barraged with such high-flown concepts during the heyday of prog-rock--turned the record into a major hit. The Project actually scored a US Top 40 hit with "(The System of) Doctor Tarr and Professor Feather". The 1987 CD version of "ToMaI" differs somewhat from the original vinyl: Parsons dropped in synthesizer parts to modernize the album, and added an opening recitation by Orson Welles. But the integrity of the original is maintainedmore… well enough, and the album remains a classic excuse to dim the lights, pour a glass of sherry (amontillado, natch), and break out the headphones.---Daniel Durchholz

Seems sort of appropriate for MV, although I am sure happiness has stepped to greet him right now. I hope the rain keeps it up until the thirst of that biscuit-dry land has been entirely quenched.

BTW I'm not certain which part of Australia you live in, mvasilj. I have been following the drought story and I am aware the hinterland of Adelaide and the Swan River valley have been hit especially hard. I read a suggestion that the weather patterns had shifted and the rain, such as it is, was falling on the spinifex semi-desert in Western Australia instead.

My fingers are crossed for you, that the drought will now break and your farmers can get back to having a decent life. Good luck.

One more to part with: Neil Diamond, Beautiful Noise.
