Greg Lake wonderful on this.

thank you so much for this channel and the amount of work you are putting into talking about these arts thank you

Have you ever dug around Bandcamp? They have alot of weird Japanese music on there.

You are living proof that nice guys with good hearts should never review art. That album is HORRIBLE.

Amazing album

Really great review/insight. It's impossible for me, though, to be objective about this band, though. I loved them for the moment I first heard them. Any chance you might do a critique of The Fine Young Cannibals? Maybe too poppy for you; just wondering. Forgive me if I insult your taste.

I found this album a few months back in my vinyl collection,have never listened to it but love the front cover and took it out to draw myself! Sent it to a fb artist friend as it reminded me of her art,she told me about Lady Fuchcia and Gormangast! Cool 😎

I cant find this on Spotify. Interesting.

Best Supertramp's album.

Got my German copy of Parachute in 1971, being one of my faves ever since. The album was entirely self-covered in 2021 by four ex-members (plus some additional lyrics by Phil May, who didn't join in the recordings): perhaps a rather raw version, by ex-Pretty Things Wally Waller, Skip Alan, Pete Tolson and John Povey -- Parachute Revisited by xPTs; three 69/70 original demos come as bonus tracks in some editions. Concept albums S.F. Sorrow (released on December 1968), while The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society (November 1968). Hard to say though which was first recorded. In 1964 they had a pre-punk debut single: Rosalyn (covered in David Bowie's Pin Ups). Dick Taylor played with the early Rolling Stones before Pretty Things was formed. By far they're one of the very best acts of 60's British Rock scene, IMHO.

This was my 1970's Sunday afternnon beers' go to album! Have always loved ir!

"Try Again" is my favorite song from this album. The whole thing is good though. I think Palmer wrote lyrics for the John Wetton/Bill Bruford era of KC.

Wonderful band, criminally underrated. There's something very special about 90's goth, it was really a time of constant change and experimentation. Maybe it's just me getting nostalgic lol

new to the channel, but i really like the way you talk about music. have you listened to paix by catherine ribeiro + alpes? great french prog with some beautiful vocals and dreamy production. i have mixed feelings about the first track, but the rest of the album absolutely rocks!

This band was ridiculously hard to research. If anyone knows the exact line up for this album please share!

Heya Chris, on another video your brother commented that you composed that analog-sounding, arpeggiated music for the Liminal Spaces intros. Is that so? And if so, would you happen to have a Bandcamp (or suchlike) where one might sample more of your music? I’ve been an electronica fan since the 70s, and am now enjoying the “synthwave” resurgence thanks to shows like Stranger Things. Anyway, just thought I’d ask. :) PS: I’m a sci-fi writer.

I listened to Jonathan's later albums for many years, and even saw him live a few times. His albums were always entertaining and always put on a good show, but he was also always wrong in his attitude towards this album, and I think he could have made much more great music if he had continued in the vein of this album. It's funny that you call this album "childish", as the music he turned to after this actually was childish, with songs about martians and the ice cream man, as noted by the other commenter. As you allude to earlier, this album is actually "teen-ish", and Richman reverted to something even younger when he put this music behind him.

Still sing Roadrunner in my band -- learned this song from the radio in 80s in Providence, RI

Not my cup of tea... not enough talent

Yes. Saw JR a couple of times in 76/77 at the Longbranch in Berkeley. Played the tar out of that album. But i liked Ice Cream Man and Martian Martians too. 😊

I remeber a great song by them that goes: Mary used to play the piano, now she's smoking marijuana, but it's not on this album. Where did it come from?

Great video, man! Thanks for sharing this!

Tony Durant - guitar, vocals Janet Rogers - violin, b. vocals Vanessa Hall-Smith - violin, b. vocals Madeleine Bland - cello, piano, harmonium, vocals Michael Day - bass Michael Gregory - drums

Mervyn Peake illustrated the trilogy. There is a picture of Fuchsia, a drawing I think

It is a terrific album but the sound is absolutely horrible. Bad mix. Bad production. Bad balance. And I think that may have hurt them.

Nice! The precursor to the Far East Family Band. Excellent album.

Great video! Thank you!! Love all Japanese music and culture…. Especially some of the punk bands of Japan!!

Search for :Rooms of anguish by Power of Omens. Acquired taste.

I've listened to a LOT of prog on youtube and was surprised this never came up in my searches. After hearing it I absolutely agree, it really is every bit as good as you claim. Now saved and I'll be listening to it again, and again. Thank you so much for pointing out its existence!

I listened to some of it. I appreciate the ambition and the arrangements. Lead vocals could be stronger. But it is so rare and esoteric. I am glad that it exists.

Hello! I am really happy i just discovered your channel. Could you please listen to a psych/prog rock band from Greece called Pete & Royce? They released a gem back in 1980 called "Suffering of tomorrow".

You can find Fuchsia (1971) FULL ALBUM on RUclips.

Was this what the Sex Pistols were singing about? "No Fuchsia! No Fuschsia for you!"

woke up with "mexican radio" in my head. anything beyond that is new to me. great rundown on the band, thanks!

Lost? How so? Out of print? Forgotten?

Thank you for the recommendations. I will seek them out and give them a listen.

Remember the Fuchsia. Nektar.

Good idea for a channel but I think including one minute samples of say 2-3 songs would really interest people a bit more. So really too much talk and no idea how the music sound, I hope that helps? Cheers.

Just ran across this video. Interesting concept. However your script could use an edit. Some explanations ramble and are repetitive. Also expand your vocabulary with respect to modifiers and adjectives. You say incredible the way a.certain generation always uses awesome. Finally, would it kill you to give us an actual sample of this music?

Totally agree, it's my favorite TD album. Zeit is a close 2nd. Just found your channel and like the vibe. Cheers

Naming yourself after Fuchsia Groan is setting the bar REALLY high.

Amazing album

I never heard of this band. I used the name fuchsia for a band for a little while in the 2000s

Thanks for sharing this album

Thanks for sharing this treasure. Also have been a lifelong fan of the Gormenghast books.

They Don’t Want Me refers to Stan leaving the band. It was Joe the percussionist at the end of Call of the West. WOV with Stan was Brilliant.

I didn’t hear you mention the release year? That sucks

Forgot about this one, thanks, brings back memories🙂🙂

It's pronounced Schulze (Schul-zeh) , not Schulz.

Back to the Fuchsia! Sorry, I just had to.
