The Twelve Songs of Dougmas: Vol. IV | Fan Favorites - Episode 43

JC Superstar is the third collaboration between Webber and Tim Rice, and the second to actually be produced and recorded. The first to be recorded was Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (1967) in the form of an extended cantata for boy's choir with rock band and a couple of adult soloists. It was later fleshed out into a full-length opera for stage.

Jon Anderson invited Chris Squire to participate in that album, but Chris was commited to Yes as it was comprised at that time, and so declined. I'm not aware of any public comments from him about what he thought of the music. I agree with you that Wakeman's synth sound is very off-putting. It sounds shrill and tinny, and is a big reason that I don't like this album as much as I wanted to. It was Bruford who suggested using his King Crimson bandmate to play bass.

I am pumped that my submission has made it through to a video at last! I am so thrilled that you enjoyed Muse, Doug, as much as I hoped and thought you would! Thank you for the insight re Drones. I am not familiar with the composer, Palestrina. I will look up that piece. The Drones album doesn't have much more classical stuff but is my favourite of their albums, and one of my favourites of all time. My previous suggestion for it didn't make the master list but I will try again now🙂. God bless you, Doug and all the community, including of course Meg and Trixie.

After all this time....you still have the fire to bring music to us.......THANKX Doug

Ive always found the song Sound of Seven Jon ‘s crowning achievement

Margaret Barnes

I completely forgot that this version of Here Comes the Flood had already made it into a Council Hangout! It was #66 back in September of 2024, when I appealed to you all to please get that gruesome “In the Court of the Crimson King” t-shirt out of my house!! 😂😝🫣 Still a great song though, full marks! 👍💯

Regarding the different versions of "Here Comes The Flood", Gabriel said, "We'd done one [version] on the first album, which was a grand thing with an orchestra, which I think had some beautiful textures in the verse that I liked a lot, but the chorus ended up a little too bombastic. I'd done a demo prior to that with Robert Fripp, and he then did a version [the one heard here in FF43] which was more like the demo. I wanted to take a simpler, more emotional sketch version of it and do it with voice and piano." (He released that voice/piano version on a 1990 compilation album.)

Todd Rundgren is mostly known for recording everything himself, which he did for three sides of Something/Anything, although side 4 (including Hello It's Me) was recorded live in the studio with anyone available at the time. There were very little rehearsals so everyone (including Todd) learnt it on the day. The "think of me" ending was thought up on the spot by the backing singers and it ends abruptly because of the nature of the recording.

Steve Hall

Fun Fact: There were only two people in the world that Jim Steinman thought of as being a true genius. The first person was the lead costume designer at the Bayreuth Wagner Festival (I can't remember their name). The other person was Todd Rundgren.

OMG! I am SO obsessed with the Tony Banks piece! Completely sucked in by the second bar. This happens rarely with me, but when it does, I have to follow. Shame on me for not pursuing Banks' orchestral works years ago. Time to catch up...

Chris Gadsby

Just listened to Jon Anderson and caravan. 20 minutes that flew by!

Tom (the soggy one)

True story- the first (pilot) episode of "That 70's Show" revolves around Todd Rundgren and "Hello, It's Me" plays a big part.

Regarding ABWH...from what I understand, Chris could not play on the album for contractual reasons. I think he would have loved to be a part of it (as he was involved in EVERYTHING Yes-related). Before he passed, I daydreamed of Chris re-releasing the album, adding his own bass and background vocals to the tracks...but sadly my dream never became reality. I love the album, but the bass has always seemed flat.

Bill Coonley

Wow, what an eclectic selection of music, especially the unexpected gift from Muse! We believe in Doug! We all learn from you, but also share what makes us tick. That, I think, is what makes this community special. The best part of it all is that there is still a lot of music out there yet to be discovered. 2026 should be a fantastic year!

Ross Pollack

A fantastic episode. It took 3 days to get through all of it. :-) The Banks, Anderson, and Caravan pieces were my favorites.
