His vocal performance here harnessed some of the magic of his beautiful voice of 50 years ago.

Erano ospiti a casa mia i meravigliosi VDGG, Milano 1972

[@enzofini4231]

Visto e ascoltato a Parma tanti anni fa credo fosse il 1983)1984 un lungo viaggio dalla Sardegna in autostop con pochi soldi per mangiare era già settembre Un ricordo di una sala quasi vuota un ricordo confuso per la stanchezza e io che non conoscevo ancora tutte le sue canzoni

[@billareefbong]

MI associo al pensiero di "BARLOSO" e dico che a 60 anni (SUONATI) non smetto mai di ascoltare (fortunatamente anche a lavoro) ed entrare nel mondo magico che "Peter&Company" sono riusciti a dare a tutti quelli che hanno fatto parte e che hanno condiviso emozioni che ben pochi hanno avuto il privilegio di ricevere a quei tempi

[@radudragan7608]

A great song about friendship and love (seems Mike and Susie were two close friends of Peter)...little to do with war refugees we see nowadays. Lyrics here: North was somewhere years ago and cold: Ice locked the people's hearts and made them old. South was birth to pleasant lands, but dry: I walked the waters' depths and played my mind. East was dawn, coming alive in the golden sun: the winds came, gently, several heads became one in the summertime, though august people sneered; we were at peace, and we cheered. We walked alone, sometimes hand in hand, between the thin lines marking sea and sand; smiling very peacefully, we began to notice that we could be free, and we moved together to the West. West is where all days will someday end; where the colours turn from grey to gold, and you can be with the friends. And light flakes the golden clouds above all; West is Mike and Susie, West is where I love. There we shall spend our final days of our lives; tell the same old stories: yeah well, at least we tried. Into the West, smiles on our faces, we'll go; oh, yes, and our apologies to those who'll never really know the way. We're refugees, walking away from the life that we've known and loved; nothing to do or say, nowhere to stay; now we are alone. We're refugees, carrying all we own in brown bags, tied up with string; nothing to think, it doesn't mean a thing, but we'll be happy on our own. West is Mike and Susie; West is where I love, West is refugees' home.

That's not what Peter hammill is about really. He always used music as a canvas for his poetry and writings. His books read very well. Performing does take it's toll though, trust me, i still haven't leart my lesson. :-)

[@kingcrimson234]

i love a lot of van der graaf generator material, but the weak point is hamill's voice. i'm sorry but he couldn't hold a note to save his life.

[@baldus63]

1Ascoltare e Dario Ghidoni, non avete capito una minchia di "Refugees" e di Peter Hammill. Lasciate perdere.

[@baldus63]

Quanto vuoi, ma la canzone è del 1971 e non c'entra nulla col contesto di cui parli.

[@baldus63]

Che cazzo c'entra con Hammill!!!!?!?!?

[@darioghidoni7740]

I one time stepped on my cat's tail and he screamed like Peter Hammill sings. To Peter, those people from Africa have a country. The have more land than Italians. They have more children than Italians. Italy will become divided, conquered and the bankrupt!

[@1Ascoltare]

Send this man to Africa! Lasciate l'Italia agli Italiani.

[@gizmoxiv]

no, he sing really well and i think he could hold a note but he dont because its his style of singing. but i seen better perfomance than this one..

[@darioghidoni7740]

One time I slammed the door on my cat's tail, for three days he sounded like Peter Hammill. KEEP ITALY--ITALIAN!!!

Perché? E' un segno di affetto e partecipazione.

Italians must start treating people like Peter Hammil as a danger and traitor to Italy.
