Down and out in Paris and London

Not the book but the CD... and with no relation.
Just a small thought after 25 listenings while running (before I got hurt) of the last album from Tillson (under the tangent moniker). It's classical prog from the 70ies with nice addition of Flute from theo travis. Niot very original but well done though Tillson voice is a bit weak sometimes.
Highlights of the album is (but I'm a sell out on this one) "Perdu dans Paris" which has a nice vibe and middle section with mellotron.

The Never Ending Way of ORwarriOR


A small note to praise the glorious new album (out for some times already) of israelian metal prog band Orphaned Land.
The concept album produced with the help of porcupine tree master Steven Wilson is a great disc based on the coming of a warrior of light to bring peace to the eastern world. A message of peace with lots of arabic and yiddish vibes and melodies poured into this record.
A definitive great album for the year 2010.
