- Мамочка, почему моего двоюродного брата Бриллианта так назвали?
- Потому что твоя тётя любит бриллианты.
- А что насчёт меня?
- Хватит вопросов, Metropolis part 2 Scenes from a Memory.
Скорее однозначно "Да", чем вряд ли "Нет".
Стоит самого пристального внимания, причем как Colosseum так и Colosseum-II. Для первого варианта обязательны к прослушиванию "Those Who Are About To Die Salute You" (1969), "Valentyne Suite" (1969), "Daughter of Time" (1970) и "Colosseum Live" (1971). Не рекомендую поздние работы, они 3 раза собирались практически оригинальным составом в 1997, 2003 и 2014 годах. Не плохо, но не более того. Colosseum-II все три студийных обязательны к прослушиванию. "Strange New Flesh" (1976), "Electric Savage" (1977) и "War Dance" (1977). На всех трех замечательный и очень неожиданный Гарри Мур. Да и Дон Эйри там тоже хорош.
А между двумя Колизеями самое место еще одному проекту Джона Хайсмена - "Tempest". У них две пластинки: одноименная "Tempest" (1973) c Аланом Холдсвортом и "Living In Fear" (1974). Тоже обе хороши.

Под картинкой - официальный синопсис.
Never one to let the grass grow under his feet Ray Wilson will release his second album of 2016 on October 7th.
The new album follows the acoustic set 'Song For A Friend' which garnered some of the very best reviews of his career on release. Stiltskin and Genesis may have bought Ray to the attention of the public but a relentless touring schedule and his abilities as a singer-songwriter are now reaping their rewards some 15 years into his solo career.
Makes Me Think Of Home, the 6th solo studio album from former Stiltskin and Genesis frontman, Ray Wilson, will be released on 7th October.
This release comes hot on the heels of Song For A Friend, an acoustic album released earlier this year and which garnered great reviews.
Makes Me Think Of Home is a mix of pop, rock and prog which showcases Ray’s remarkable voice.
The title track sees Ray looking back to his days living in Scotland, a country he left after finding love with a Polish dancer.
He moved to Poznan 8 years ago, and in this ambitious and very moving track he reflects on his years trying to find peace and happiness in Edinburgh.
The album also contains subtle humour; particularly in the first single “Amen To That”.
The track is accompanied by a multi-layered video production in which Ray showcases his acting skills as he takes on multiple characters in a range of unusual professions.
The intense 7-day shoot produced what is undoubtedly the best video of Ray’s career and which takes the instantly memorable “Amen To That” to another level, throwing in some unexpected twists along the way.
The album also touches on complex contemporary Scottish issues such as The Scottish Referendum with "They Never Should Have Sent You Roses”, exploring how it divided families and a nation.
Also, widespread alcoholism, which affected one of Ray's close family members, is challenged in "The Next Life”, and having to fight these demons alone in "Anyone Out There"
He also has time to pay homage to one of the world’s best-loved cartoon strips with “Calvin and Hobbes”.
“Makes Me Think of Home encompasses the joy of freedom we have all come to enjoy and perhaps take for granted as well as the fear of solitude.
It highlights the many imperfections that make us special and reminds us not to fear them, but to embrace them.
In the words of Leonard Cohen. “There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in”

28 октября на Cherry Red Records выходит новый альбом Lucifer's Friend "Too Late To Hate".
Чуваки молчали 35 лет, с 1981, и вот собрались вместе.
И даже снова стали выступать живьём:
Больше, конечно, хард, чем прог, но Лоутон по-прежнему шикарен.
Синопсис нового альбома: Lucifer’s Friend reformed in 2015 and since then has been playing high profile festival concerts such as the HEADLINE act on 4 Sound Stage the SWEDEN ROCK FESTIVAL and at the ROCK OF AGES and LORELEY festivals too.
This is the band’s first true NEW STUDIO ALBUM since 1981 !
The band features core original members John Lawton (ex-URIAH HEEP), Peter Hesslein and Dieter Horns along with long term members Jogi Wichmann and Stephan Eggert.
