Progress Is Declared

First details on an upcoming new album called Progress. Genesis 1:28. Star Trek. The Organians. Klingons. Nietzche. Chinese island builders. Brave New World. The irony of a static music culture in an ever-changing world.

Roger CortonSo it’s time to start talking about the next record? I seem to recall you first hinting at this way back last July.

JCHYes. It’s a concept I’ve been thinking about for a looooong time. The working title is “Progress”.

RCAnd is that title ironic? I also seem to recall you going on about how much you hate how sarcastic and ironic the world has become. First the price hike and now this. The hypocrisy of it all.

JCHEnough already. I feel bad enough […]

Keith Emerson

Keith Emerson at the mighty moog.Keith never made the turn into the great second career he deserved as a serious composer. On the other hand, he almost single handedly invented the position of keyboard player and that is more than enough for him to be remembered as one of the greatest musicians of our age.

Worst Classical Music Cover Of All Time

OK, I know it’s adolescent of me, but I can’t help it. I just loooooooove this thing. You gotta love it when Barbarella meets The Planets.

Although, I gotta say. This may be a close second…
