I love that you Rick Rolled us in the bot before you left.😂😂

Scott Ankenman

Hey Doug, I'm sure you know, but the beginning of your post if Yes at The house of blues, is a song called Time and a Word. Yes's second album. It was also a Coca-Cola commercial about 1970? something? It's a tremendous album!

Seth MacDonald

I have a recommendation for a band that I am not sure you have done yet. I know you have done music from each individual member in their other bands though. The name of the band is OSI.

Ed Noponen

Boy, I mst be a real blockhead. I have a Discord profile, but when I go to Patreon "settings" I see no "app" button. Can you help?

Richard Nicholson

Just joined....been here with the Youtube episodes since about episode 44 (massive Maiden fan). Can't wait to dive in to some of the EPLs. Rick.

Michael Brown

Rejoined after a month off (hopefully for good behaviour)

Aaron Fullagar

Just joined. I have been with your You tube channel when Covid had started and you had started your reviews of Iron Maiden. Been a fan for a while. I am also happy to see you are discussing the Planets by Holst. That is a favorite of mine

Mark Maneval

Doug, I have been a fan for a long time, have watched you on YouTube. I joined this channel after seeing your post about the BS concerning your last attempt at loading a video. I live on YouTube, and I have seen many first reaction channels not have any problems, and a handful that quit because no matter what they did they could not get their content on... IT IS BS!!!! I do have two requests for your consideration to analyze. The first is Leonid and Friends, (They are the Russian and Ukranian Chicago/Earth Wind and Fire, cover band) They composed an original song called The Speck of Dust. The second is by the late 70's super prog group U.K. The song is Dead of Night (Suite : Dead of Night/By the Light of Day/Presto Vivace and Reprise) Doug, this is 13:07 of Mind blowing prog, that changed by life,, literally. Doug, keep up the great work my friend! I look forward to getting to know you and the other other members of The Council of Dougs! Sounds like a blast!!

Colin Heath

Hope you get to read this Doug. I 100% and more love everything Doug, but sadly have to take a temporary hiatus from Patreon for (hopefully) a short period while I sort out some deteriorating business related matters. I WILL be back after I've got retirement matters finalised which will restore a very welcome stability and reliability to my personal finances. Keep up the amazing work and I'll catch you retrospectively on you tube for sure in the meantime.

Sadly a year ago today we lost Klaus Schulze Hans Zimmerman said of Klaus "“The world has finally caught up to a true pioneer.”" Today I shall relisten to Bayreuth Return. . The film music composer Hans Zimmer used one of Schulze's pieces as part of his score for the movie Dune (2021), and described his work as “the perfect balance between the soul and technology”.29 Apr 2022 Maybe one day Doug will catch up with someone else who dies around the same time as Vangelis and Alan White. eend note Schulze’s impact was recently heard in the film “Dune,” interpolated into the score by an admirer, Hans Zimmer. “When I was writing the end titles, I realized there was a bass line that I’d heard before,” Zimmer told Den of Geek when the film was coming out. “And I suddenly remembered that Klaus Schulze wrote a song called ‘Frank Herbert.’ I basically lifted the bass line from that. So I phoned Klaus and asked him, could we make this a co-composition? But he was quite thrilled that something he wrote so many years ago still echoed into this century.” Sequencers are beautiful

Richard Elliott

Hi all, just joined this week after following the Daily Doug for a few months. I am a YES fan since I saw them in Dublin in 1969 and have enjoyed Dougs reaction to YES tracks. I look forward to being with y'all on Patreon

John Meggers

Hi, Doug. Really enjoy your reactions. Wondered if, as a composer, you might comment on three vastly different versions of a given song. I'm referring to "When The Levee Breaks." You have the original Memphis Minnie version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5VmVvsjyKw), and then, of course, the infamous Led Zeppelin version from the ZOSO album (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5VmVvsjyKw). But there's a third version I find fascinating because it is (in my view) an incredible reimagining of the song, performed by A Perfect Circle (live version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXYieA0tGqE). I'm just curious your thoughts about songs that are so completely reimagined. Keep up the good work!

Daniel Perea

Hello Doug, been a fan for a long time! thanks you for the great content you always provide. Today I bumped into an old video i watch years ago, and was thinking it would be great to watch you react to it! have a great weekend - "Calle 54 - Michel Camilo - Anthony Jackson - Horacio Hernandez" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axTfqxahqEE

paul smith

love your reactions mate, please more marillion

dezmilad

Hellooooo doug, I'm here finally. I'm looking forward to to get more involved with the daily doug community. I have learned a lot from your videos, and I find that I'm developing my ear with your help. I recognize intervals, modes, and even just notes. Very excited to go beyond your YouTube content

Rebecca Walsh

Thank You so much for posting this video. I was able to get 'discord' set up and connected to 'patreon'...I am beyond excited to get further involved in this community! I don't know what took me so long to do this.

Chuck Harden Jr.

I still don't know how to request a song or send you a link or where to do it

Timo

Thanks for the reaction on ELP's Fanfare for the Common Man! Keith Emerson is one of my all time favourites, such a humble person with unfortunately a tragic end of his life. Anyway this was also a great example of classic works redone right and your comments of Aaron Coplands reaction were a good addition here. Also got a thought that this is actually quite an interesting category, proge/rock bands understanding what the original work was about and just just picking the melody line. When thinking about similar versions Sky's version of Toccata came to mind ( see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgbgUrp1a70 ). The Nice has also done Karelia Suite by Sibelius and there are some clips of that.

Ron Swirson

Doug, great job on this, it was Yeoman's work getting through those charts and ya has done a fine job mi matey. On a serious note, I've watched all the live-action Star Trek reboots and the only one that is closest and truest to the optimism the original Star Trek embodied is Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. It's fun, you care about the ship members, and right from the start Captain Pike is faced with catch-22 moral dilemma between tribes in a distant world, and off they go. PS BTW the show is good and Anson Mount is a great Captain Pike. I'd say a mix between Shatner's Kirk (sans libido lol) and Stewart's Picard...and it works well, really well. I hope you get to see it, you'll feel like you first felt when watching TNG only that this takes place many years earlier

Jefferson Cosgrove

Can anyone point me to the link to join the Discord? New member here.

Paul Ehney

Doug, just wanted you to know I'm glad you finally listened to Perpetual Change by Yes. It's one of their best efforts and gave us all a glimpse of what was yet to come.

emmsdad

Just realized you haven't done any XTC. Their last couple albums are rich with classical music influence that I think you would love. Listen to a few seconds of THE GREEN MAN. Much in style like the later Beatles, but a little more sophisticated!

Brian Towey

New subscriber here; long time YouTube listener. One thing you--and every other reaction channel--get wrong: You wear headphones. Classic prog was composed for big woofers. For example, on headphones you would never guess that the "heartbeat" at the start of Dark Side of the Moon is a very low note turning on and off. I know this because it was the resonant frequency of my brick dormitory building. When we played it on the 15" woofers, the building would shake: on, off, on, off. So yes, good for you listening on vinyl. At least be aware that these works were composed for 20 minute album sides. But if you're missing the bottom octave, you're missing half the fun.

Ricky

Finally became a member, now to find the time to enjoy all the content. As always Doug, Megan thank you.

Michelle N. Baty

Here exclusively to advocate for Radiohead/the Smile/Thom Yorke reaction videos. I saw the Kid A one and loved it. Please do Amnesiac and beyond!

dbroek97

Just joined, excited to see you react to more proggy metal classics! Especially bands like Maiden, Priest and Metallica who go beyond your standard minor/blues scales and incorporate these neoclassical flourishes like diminished chords and line cliches. You're the best at spotting that stuff and calling it out right away. Has helped my own songwriting and ear training tremendously as well!

Meng

Newbie here 🤘 Joined for the U.K. and King Crimson - would love to see you take a crack at Patrick Moraz's Story Of I and Refugee. 👍

Andreas59

Hi, I just joined the patreon after being tired of the Youtube restrictions. I grew up with Deep Purple and Pink Floyd and liked all of your reactions on their music. Now my favorites are more like Nightwhish, Dream Theater and EPICA. I would love to see your rection of the complete Album The Astonishing from Dream Theater. Saw them in Frankfurt last year, was wonderful. Did you alredy do this or is it on your list (at which position :-) ).

Olivier Bones

Doug, stay strong, your channel is the BEST thing on YouTube. We need you to continue, for sure. Cheers from France !

DAVID SCHWARTZ

Hey Doug, you must have heard the news about Rush by now. That they are going on tour next year with a new drummer. If you haven't heard then check out their video on YouTube. I hope you are doing OK with your back. I know it must not be easy when you back hurts a lot. I really appreciate the content you put out and I am going to try and see if I can see Rush next year. Take care, Doug.

James Geckle

FYI I had amusing conversations with both Ric Sanders and Chris Leslie at various Fairport concerts, both treasured memories, but I will give ya'll a break from my ramblings. Cheers! :)

Keith Crowe

What about a review of the GOAT, Allan Holdsworth?

Anna Brodkey

Fiona Apple is actually a HUGE fan of Kate Bush and has been one of her idols since Fiona was a kid. Funny enough, Fiona, Kate and Joni are my favorite singer songwriters. They are all unbelievably unique! They don't sound like anyone else. I HIGHLY recommend checking out more of Fiona's work.
