Sorry bro that almost everybody in the comments are attacking you, or the substance in your video. To much gatekeeping going on. It's all good, I bought this to because I can own all two decades of the bands material for a reasonable price. There's nothing wrong with that, compress or not. The only gripe I have with the boxset is the discs are not protected, their just loose in the cardboard sleeve.

Great looking part of the world Darren.

It's a decent album and didn't deserve the insultingly poor review scores....I'd give it a 6/10

Cool shirt. Nice song.

He did a video last year asking for the war in Israel to be permanently stopped.

Yes

Talk about democracy around the globe. I am in bc.

Good morning

I don’t find it dated at all. And I listened to it in 1971 as a 10 year old.

Any squirrels?

I agree with you, I like "Union", and as I heard it in 1991, so I had no idea the games behind this album. The whole album worked for me, as a whole. Now, I can hear the difference between the two bands, but it works for me.

"Onion", it's the worst promotion you can get. Rick Wakeman was certainly cut in the mixes, and to me, it's obvious that he had to be (cut)

I found the production really good actually

I can only buy "Subway walls", especially the end of it

It's a floppy disc, the worst. "Open your eyes" is like a masterpiece in comparison

I am waiting for you about the last Jon Anderson and the Band Geeks !

Nice music

Awesome band, should have been bigger, Still have their album too!

Is ‘transsexual’ different from ‘transgender’? I am genuinely confused as a trans male what you are talking about Also, gender affirming care doesn’t mean cutting off genitalia, it means anything that affirms one’s gender, like a hair cut or chest surgery. It’s trans’gender’ because it’s not about changing the ‘sex’ which is assigned at birth it’s about changing ‘gender’ which is different, sex is biological gender is an identity Also as a transmale I can assure you there are tons of trans males going to male spaces, I personally would never use a male bathroom because I think those should be based on ‘sex’ and not based on ‘gender’ because I think bathrooms variety should be about what each sex uses and not about making a division of gender. I completely get the point that there can be ‘trans’ woman who are just men trying to get into woman spaces but that doesnt invalidate all trans woman. I’d also like to point out that you’ve been putting a stress on trans women and not trans males, I don’t fully see why you’d do that Disclaimer, this isn’t supposed to be attacking you or your video, I just saw the video on my feed and was curious about it. I think your point of view is very important to hear about and I’m genuinely curious has to many things you’ve said

Chippenham’s finest after The Lucas Patrol

it has to be a different vent on changing times never is a time that you are out of touch with today's issues

Weird the Tull reissues are not on Amazon Us Or Amazon Canada yet . Anybody knows why ???

I’m relieved to see someone who (dare I use the word) identifies as leftist, socialist, etc etc examining this madness so critically. Here in America I know people who make the same claims who would hear your arguments and instantly proceed with a bombardment of “racist something something transphobe something something capitalism”

i'd like a video on america, with their fascinating beginnings, mass genocides and english rule. thank you teacher darren. sorry, "sir"

Persons with xy-chromosomes should not compete against women in boxing. It's not fair game. It's irresponsible and potentially lethal.

totally agree about westerners getting bored and creating new problems. it seems to be human nature, to eat ourselves, it happened to all the great civilizations. we had a good run, then social media happened. too smart for our own good, but at the end of the day it seems our biggest weakness is not being able to be comfortable with what we have, we always need to "progress" even if that requires a civil war in doing so what progressives don't seem to understand is you can't force acceptance of things that feel unnatural. blokes in dresses were laughed at and mocked because its not natural. we learned to accept them over time but even that isnt good enough, they need to be celebrated, and if you don't conform you're a nazi, homophobic blah blah. the discourse is insanely toxic, and frankly these people need help. like you said do what you want but don't force it down our throats (especially our kids) actually thinking about it it seems all the stupidity and issues come from america, their absolutely shit show of society seems to bleed over into europe. whether its black lives matter, LGBTBBQ. thanks to the internet these yank weirdos are extremely prevalent on social media and are affecting our children. keep your young off social media basically, it'll only bring them harm

Puberty blockers can be harmful as hell somatically. Weakened bones, blood clots, heart disease, cancer. Not to mention fertility problems and irreversible damage.

Great discussion. I think you maybe a terf now 😂

"In the West, instead of solving real problems..." Very well said! 👍

Thanks! This was exactly what I wanted the topic to be about, even though I was admittedly vague in my request :)

I saw the other comment about Hergest Ridge above that. Just realised this week that its a real place and is in Wales.

in the right mood. Hergest Ridge for me

Great video, I learn a lot from you as I don’t know about these things in detail. Would like to see a similar video from you, on the topic of gender and the stuff that goes on everywhere these days.

It is just a divine melody: it stirs my soul so much. Thank you for this divine gift 😇

Waters is a prolific loud mouth bully. Always has been.

This album's nothing to write home about plus he verbally assaulted people on his "Fish On Friday" broadcast in a blatant manner coz they didn't buy his remasters and remixes and he blocks them and all sorts of weird shit. Who wanna pay to see his gigs anyway? 😂 Much better to remember him in a good way, and he can rest assured that I'm not gonna buy Vigil nor Exile twice! It's also quite interesting to see how he deleted his drunken ranting afterwards! 😉

Christina Booth from Magenta I feel needed to be on the list

I ran Neil’s appreciation society back in the day and he was a delight to deal with and a joy to be around. He did look into a commercial release of Innes Book of Records but was told he would have to get the permission from everyone who appeared on it - an impossible task! He did put together a best of complication of clips out on a DVD in his Recollections - Le Duck’s box set (available from his website). He didn’t sue Oasis directly. He’d been made aware of the similarities between How Sweet and Whatever but it was his publisher who sued and as a result of their action he now shares a writing credit on the song and royalties. I met him in 1991 when he was holed up in the depth of Suffolk writing and recording episodes of The Raggy Dolls. Reissues of the Bonzo albums came thick and fast at that time and Recycled Vinyl Blues was a part of that wave of reissues. A great CD. He was fascinating man with a mind like a box of frogs and a fierce intellect. His death was unexpected and thankfully swift with no lingering illness. He is sadly missed. For anyone interested there is to be a concert celebrating his life and music at Indigo at O2 on Thursday 28th November 2024.

This was my whole childhood.

We found this really helpful , thank you

That’s what I like to see….a freshly washed pair of hands, clean fingernails etc. I vividly recall the offer of a cheese n’ onion crisp to a work colleague….as his right hand began the descent into my family bag, it became alarmingly obvious personal hygiene was not the lucky recipient’s forte - there was less filth to be found on the inside of an exhaust pipe. Despite protestations from the unclean one, the gesture was hastily withdrawn, instead emptying approximately one third of my cherished bag onto a clean tissue for him to enjoy. A thoroughly entertaining unboxing video. Thank you.

My videos hit 1100 views and no longer get shown to viewers.

Thank you!

While i am very sympathetic to the Palestinian people, Roger is not a good spokesperson for the cause. Roger cannot get along with anyone, even his own son who he fired from his band. The guy is just an insufferable, miserable old goon.

It definitely is the ultimate prog concept album

How to anger a Cardiacs fan: call them The Cardiacs.

This album is better than Dark Side of the Moon.

Hello!

I’m no lefty by any means but tbh Darren I get ya. I think you see politics as just being common sense politics like a decent border control so we have sensible immigration!!
