For this next EPL, I'm asking you to choose from these solo albums by musicians more known for the work in classic bands. I'm quite interested in all of these...which one should I get to first?

Comments

Violet13

i thought i saw "Anthony Padilla" for a second i was like wtf

BRIAN MILLER

I voted for Bill Bruford, but for what it's worth, I have heard that the Roger Waters album is sometimes used to test new audiophile stereo equipment

Ralph Darvill

Out of all these "The Geese & The Ghost" is my best-loved...and probably is the most beautiful musically speaking. "One of a Kind" is probably Bruford's best and would be 2nd choice, and after that Patrick Moraz, that's an interesting album.

Kevin Barrett

All great albums, but I think you'll especially enjoy the orchestration and chorus on "Journey".

Paul Hoyle

Doug ... they are all amazing...please do them all eventually.

Jay

Probably Waters' best solo album. The lyrics are profound even though the music doesn't blow me away.

Adrian Goodrich

I'd be happy with any of the middle three, which I have copies of. But if Bill wins, very happy with that as I have never heard this album. Not interested in Waters - afraid I can no longer separate his music from his politics and opinions - he's just made it too hard for me to see through all that

Ian Swank

I was just listening to Journey to the Centre of the Earth thinking I'd love to see you do a video on it! Make sure you do the concert film!

Mark Duffill

Cannot believe Moraz is least popular!. I like Rick, but Moraz is so much more eclectic, and the Story of I is superb

Mark

One of a Kind is such a great album. Amused to Death has great moments but also a lot of typical Waters babbling.

Si

The original Journey album is fantastic and the orchestrations are rich and melodic. Amazing how the music and story fit together. The crowd were red hot too

Tom (the soggy one)

Oh, dear Lort! ALL OF THEM! That said, JTTCOTE was my gateway drug into music. ANY music. Yeah, I listened to the radio, but this album grabbed me by the lapels, shook vigorously and screamed "PAY ATTENTION TO ME!!" in my face. It was beyond a pivotal moment in so many ways.

Robert Thornton

This Patreon/Discord group of people is very interesting. They love King Crimson - but won't vote for Adrian Belew solo albums - yet will vote for Rick Wakeman. I don't get it.

Jake Vogt

Seeing both Bruford and Moraz on here reminds me that the first of their two collaborations, Music for Piano and Drums, is a really fascinating and one-of-a-kind thing. Doug, I bet you'd enjoy it quite a lot!

Frankie Cerniglia

Ant is EXTREMELY underrated. I love his original guitar solo on The Knife

John Osgood

Anthony Phillips is a must for the channel. Especially this album.

Bill Brinkmoeller

Yikes!! I have very strong feelings about four of these! How can I possibly choose??!!?!

Bernie

Doesn't look like Ant Phillips will make it - anyway I hope for consideration in the future. Rick Wakeman (according to Keith Emerson "real competition") isn't the worst alternative to live with for the moment ;)

VW

Hi Doug, The Story of I is by far the most interesting and varied musically on the list but should Rick Wakeman win then please, please choose the original live performance recording from 1974 with the London Symphony Orchestra. Rick has recorded several but inferior versions since that original performance. Please also be aware there are some very poor quality audio uploads of this piece on YouTube and the YouTube link in your Master List doesn't work for me. This one appears ok for audio quality https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HVDIPmbCnE

Sid Levy

Bill Bruford hits one out of the park with this one.

Karl Stubsjoen

I love Rick Wakeman. I’ve listened to Journey to the Center of the Earth almost since it was released. It’s great!

Daniel R. Lyons

Hey, this is a difficult vote for me as well, except for one candidate - Roger Walter's Amused to Death. Anything from Roger Waters has been a problem for me because it sounds like he is complaining about something or anything. Pink Floyd's The Final Cut was what really turned me off of his output. I had actually bought the album several years back and then after a month or two, went to a reseller to get some money back. For me, I have always enjoyed music that has concepts that are broad enough for anyone to understand and comes to a resolution. Examples are The Moody Blues' Days Of Future Passed, Rush's Permanent Waves, APP's I Robot, and so on. But when there's a lot of complaining without any kind of resolution, especially meaningful, that is when I get turned off by it. Unfortunately, Roger's solo output, and The Final Cut is to me that kind of music. If Amused to Death gets chosen and played, I will try to give it fair listen but I do have my reservations. Pardon my complaining, lol, I guess I find that Mr. Walters gets me going in the worst way.

Guitar Channel

Bruford's solo work features an elite super group, with the music co-composed by keyboardist, Dave Stewart (Egg, Hatfield and the North, National Health). This group toured and several live videos exist. Moraz's album is also excellent; however, it's more of a studio project. (Not sure Moraz's project did any live gigs.)
