Danger Money - UK

[@YaroSz16]

...Mr. John (RiP), 12.06.1949 - 31.01.2017. To już 6 lat upłynęło. Genialny numer, perła. 👍👏👌👋✌🙋😘❤👂🎼🎵🎸🎤🎹😄🎶🎵Jest do czego, jest do Kogo wracać.

[@HaroldGoodfortune]

John Wetton, a hero. His legacy will last through magnificent music like this.

[@bandfromtheband9445]

His voice was incredible!! He could sing his guts out!

[@artrock5741]

I agree, magnificent music like this written by Eddie Jobson and Robert Fripp, more than his own solo or Asia music.

[@casanovafrankenstein8538]

My favorite bassist

[@patriciaj1291]

This song is wickedly cold and foreboding; the perfect music for a mercenary or an assassin. An under-rated masterpiece of progressive rock.

[@TimsTotality]

Absolutely!

[@AEMachinas]

Patricia J King Crimson is overrated, UK underrated

[@bandfromtheband9445]

The intro and outro still give me major goosebumps!

Way ahead of their time.

I listened nonstop to this album for years when it came out...I felt like I was the only one that loved this

[@glennhecker4422]

Not by a long shot!

[@startover942]

One of my all time favorite albums, and through the miracle of KZbin we may all enjoy these great works from UK again. In one hyphenated word: MEGA-OUTSTANDING!

[@jawoody9745]

Incredible intro and outro!!

[@Chriskkboongg]

The Yamaha CS-80 tones in the intro are beyond magnificent!

[@musixpression]

+CK Kim Indeed, and so also the short outro. The CS 80 is main used, also as the solo lead and together with other sytnhs for the wide spectrum of the pitch transposing minor-chords, together with the in-fading Hammond organ sounds in a wide atmophere of reverb. What can every connoisseur say more than pretty well done?

[@Justin_Kipper]

Huh? It mostly sounds like a Hammond from the 60's....

[@artrock5741]

@@Justin_Kipper Most of the track is played on a Hammond C3, the classic prog-rock instrument of the '70s -- used by Jobson, Emerson, Lord and Wakeman. The intro is classic Yamaha CS80, most famously used by Jobson and Vangelis.

Jezu I śmierć nie odpuszcza. Odszedł na drugi brzeg jeden z moich ukochanych muzyków. Od zawsze. Na zawsze. Obecny przy mnie każdego dnia. Miałem szczęście poznać Go osobiście. Mieliśmy to szczęście..mój Syn i ja. A później na scenie zadedykował mi Starless. Nie ma już takich jak ON. No więc słucham Caesars Palace Blues i płaczę. Coraz wyraźniej widzę, że odchodzą już Ci z mojego plemienia.. Żegnaj John. Byłeś - jesteś jednym z najważniejszych moich muzycznych Bohaterów. Odpoczywaj w Bogu ...

Years ago i sold most of my records but thanks to you tube i rediscoverd this,now i'm in search to buy this record and the previous one UK,on cd,awsome musicianship,on a pair with rush

[@startover942]

This is so fantastic; we can hear this great UK composition without ripping up our own vinyl copies! God bless KZbin and all those who bring classic UK to our eyes and ears! Beyond fantastic!

[@jamespollard8090]

I have pursued music because of this song.

[@AymericNightmareTV]

This is such an amazing song that I discovered by chance on a French radio called RTL2.

[@mikemurphy1146]

Saw them open up for Tull's Bursting Out tour in 1980. Never the same after that!!!

[@webbtje]

Such a criminally under-rated album. Fantastic opener.

[@jumpinjojo]

What was the rating?

[@artrock5741]

22-year-old Eddie Jobson - the best composer, keyboardist AND violinist in prog-rock.

[@gfgarner1301]

After UK disbanded, what exactly happened to Jobson? His discography never reached such lofty heights.

[@TheAudivisioner]

@@gfgarner1301 I think he went into soundtrack work. He did a stint with Jethro Tull during the 1980's.

[@PhilAndersonOutside]

@@gfgarner1301 Played some with Zappa then Jethro Tull. Put out a solo album called The Green Album that is quite good. Then shifted to an instrumental electronic/newage album The Theme of Secrets. After that he mostly worked on making music for TV shows and commercials.

[@musicprofessor1]

@@gfgarner1301 Jobson left the record industry in 1985 citing "little opportunity to progress musically." Instead, he developed his orchestral scoring facility, winning several awards in television and film soundtrack composing working for Paramount and Disney. He also became involved with many world music acts as a producer, notably composing and producing albums and soundtracks with The Bulgarian Women's Choir. He briefly returned to recording and touring in 2008 with three projects: UKZ, the U-Z Project and the UK reunions, then finally retired in 2019 after being inducted into the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame with Roxy Music. (Please add any additional info on post-UK Jobson if you have it)

WOW. I bought this on 8-track back in '79 and it's been about that long since I've heard this piece. Thank you!

[@geoffreystewart4208]

Thanks for this. Long time no hear. Excellent. Caught them in Toronto, 1978.

[@MORGANNAW8974]

UK. A prog rock band. First time I listened this song, through my friend Enrique Leal, who gifted me a casette, I liked it. Thank you .

[@xxdrzombiexx]

I bought this new...30 years ago. Timeless music.

[@nonsensevector]

rumour has it that this was to be a cinema soundtrack. makes perfect sense. ever since 1979 i have been directing the film in my head...

[@glennhecker4422]

Funny that such would be the case, given that I have sometimes described this music as "cinematic!" VERY apt.

[@rustyshackleford1201]

Before gangsta rap there was this gangsta prog...gem of a band both versions

[@mercierjanice]

And 45 years later this still blows me away

[@szampon]

i still get the goosebumps. great music, brilliant virtuosos. this is what you get when you combine mothers of invention and king crimson :)))

listening for the first and and only about 30 secs into it, I can tell already that my new friend who reccommended this to me was on the money!

[@cjrvision]

A fantastic album and great title track. Great blend and fusion of many diffent styles of music with a staccato progressive vibe. Really great words to go with the creation of a modern secret agent man in a English spy novel:)

[@octofish]

Bought this when it came out. Great album.

[@bennettdrew]

Great memories...love John Whetton's vocals. This is a power house group of musicians. Bozzio,Jobson.

[@mercierjanice]

[@kushisaac]

Dang, saw these guys open for Jethro Tull in I think in 79, then bought this cassette, wore it out, I know Itunes had their first album but I never saw this one, have not checked in awhile maybe they have it now. Great song, thanks.

[@briangagnon5898]

this is truly sick after bill Buford left a young terrio bozzio joined fcuking sick line up I worked at tower records in campell ca,and saw their first tour and every tour and personnel change this is why im a musician

[@mistabimbims6198]

bay areaaaaa that's sick. what do you play

[@jonesy2111]

One of the best shows I saw was UK and Jethro Tull in '79... they were such an incredible group and with Bozio they were at their peak musically and artistically. I always and still wonder why they split up?

[@artrock5741]

@@jonesy2111 They split up because Bozzio and Wetton wanted to sell out and make money, which they both did. It turned out that it was only Jobson that was the purist (and the guy that wrote or cowrote every single U.K. track, and some of Bruford's).

[@danamoore5042]

assassin is the perfect word for it.Literally " Ḥashshāshīn" .They used to eat or smoke Hashish before they went out on a kill.This is the perfect album to listen to under the influence of that particular banned substance as I rather hazily recall.

UK gigantes ,de lo mejor que mi mente se a asombrado..

[@MrTrefrog]

I love this album! I saw UK in Edmonton Canada in1979 when they opened for Jethro Tull after Allan Holdsworth had left the band. Shortly after that, Eddie Jobson played on Jethro Tull's "A" album. I believe he was 18 years old at the time.

[@yohyan16]

Yesterday I saw UK at Kwasaki in Japan. Eddie,John and Terry ! Amazing! Amazing!

[@oldskoolprogfan]

I saw them open up for Tom Petty in Asbury Park, NJ. It must have been 1977 or 78. Jobson was "sick" on keyboards and violin. They blew petty off the stage!!!!!!!Their first album is a master piece.

[@startover942]

A tremendously brilliant vid of UK! Can't help but to love this!

[@fredrickjames7208]

I have the import vinyl of this album from back in the day; I agree with Patricia. John Wetton and Terry Bozzio went on to more fame; don't know where the Eddie Jobson, keyboards and electric violin went. Terry Bozzio is the Shakespeare of drumming and is very active still. John Wetton played bass with Greg Lake before ELP. Carl Palmer is also an incredible drummer. These guys were way ahead of their time, 1979!

This song should have been used for a backing track for a James Bond movie and I can't think of a song whose musical arrangements best reflects the subject matter! It's the spy movie anthem!

[@trfesok]

Jobson did a solo album, and one album with Jethro Tull, and then opened a company which sells advertising jingles.

[@globelabel]

Hmm...not exactly. Jobson did three solo albums; an album and world tour with Tull; and briefly joined Yes--then left the music business to start composing music for film, television and award-winning national and international commercials, as well as being choral director and conductor for Disney. One of his commercial scores is in the Museum of Modern Art in New York... he was not exactly "selling jingles." He returned to recording and performing in 2009 with UKZ, the U-Z Project and the UK Reunions and is now semi-retired, but gives advanced lectures on the physics and perception of music.

[@prog4evr]

I saw that tour too at Long Beach Arena, Long Beach, CA (I was bombed off my ass - too bad!) I guess it was on that tour where Jobson met Anderson and left UK to join Tull for the 1980 Tull release...
