I think I mentioned it before that my first CTS album was From The Greenhouse. Palumbo or not, I loved it. But I know very little about the band. And what I'm listening to now, well it does sound very good. The kind of Prog Rock I like. And the vocals are well done.
Palumbo comes back after the incredible Live Sky (now abbreviated and mixed with a different live show - boo). After that, I think they're mostly boring. But then there's this...
I love the rhythm section of Macre/D'Amico.
YASSSS. Two brilliant albums, the latter without ego-tripping Palumbo. Later they re-released the album with him replacing the vocals - and it's awful. Good to get the original instead.

Finally was able to grab this HTF CD at a reasonable price.

WTAF? Fripp wasn't on the cover. In fact, I played that record (not CD) two days ago.
Fun fact: Fripp's original "Exposure" was completely sung by Hall. Only later did he use others' voices. Those of you getting my mixtape downloads have heard Hall (not Roche) singing "Mary."
I read that in the liner notes..."But due to ongoing business constraints, Fripp was permitted to include only two of his new collaborations with Daryl on EXPOSURE: "North Star" and "You Burn Me Up I'm A Cigarette", both of which are featured here as bonus tracks. Ultimately, Fripp was forced to re-record their remaining co-compositions with other vocalists.

i'm not storing flac, but i am digitizing and shedding discs
i do keep the mcc stuff
because sentimental
Same. Have the stack of mcc in a special place.
Trying to decide if I need both FLAC and Apple Lossless. I think not, but worried I might end up with files that I can't get to anymore. Has happened many times in the past, like with my entire Evernote stash (which was, fortunately, mostly job-related and I don't need any more).

Digitizing all my CDs to a FLAC hard drive, and playing some forgotten gems.
Saw the tour. Red Rockers opened, pretending they were raw and edgy, but they were from an affluent New Orleans suburb. Posers.
They fit right in.
