Dupa domnul Roger Waters, alti doi domni ai muzicii de calitate vin sa ne incinte cu una din piesele lor de exceptie pe care le tot ascult in ultimul timp. Nick Barett si Clive Nolan pe numele lor, care impreuna cu formatia Pendragon, fac o muzica incredibil de buna, intr-o vreme in care eu unul credeam ca nu prea se mai face nimic in domeniul muzicii de super calitate. Auditie placuta tuturor celor care vor avea placerea. Pun aceasta piesa cu un gind special dedicat prietenului Progsor, de undeva de departe... Sometimes I feel like a twig floating down a stream Don't know where it's going Don't know what it means And that stream always ends up at the sea And it's strange, as this is where I wanna be And I know I'll find those of my kind To share these words and rhyme Sometimes I feel like a fish in the sea And I realise that we're all already here with me And as I stand on the edge of the world And I look into your eyes I realise you're still there I though...

In the world of prog, Pendragon have always been one of those love 'em or hate 'em bands. Some dislike that it seems they sometimes show influence from other bands (Pink Floyd, late 70’s Genesis, and neo prog contemporaries Marillion for example) a bit too closely. Some have a dislike for Nick Barrett’s heavily accented voice. Others love the layers of symphonic keyboards by Clive Nolan and emotional guitar playing of Barrett. Some like the catchy well-crafted songwriting. One observation I have made in listening to the music of Pendragon, is that while a lot is borrowed, there isn’t a phony note anywhere. They are very sincere in everything they do… The Masquerade Overture is considered by many Pendragon fans, to be their best work to date, and I am inclined to agree (although their most recent album Not Of This World is just as strong in my opinion.) The album begins with “The Masquerade Overture” opening the album on a symphonic note, with keyboard orchestration, piano, an...

Featuring Nick Barrett (vocal’s & Guitars), Rik Carter (keyboards), Peter Gee (bass, guitar, bass pedals) & Nigel Harris (drums & percussion). Cover illustration by Dave Hancock. This album written and produced back in the heady days of the early 1980’s contains what have become anthemic tracks by Pendragon "Leviathan", "Alaska" and of course "The Black Knight" which became a call to be heard regularly chanted in London’s Marquee Club, and a song still achievin...

Pendragon, una din trupele care imi plac foarte mult: Painting pictures of a thousand different paths We sketch an outline of a love that hopes to last Casting a wand over imaginary hopes And close our eyes so we don't fell the ebb and flow And paintbox you are my only hope Of covering the faded past and starting out once more With a fortune in new colours new hopes to inspire I paint the path I want to take and paint a life of fire Marking out our lives full of different plans Excitedly we hold the key to change our hearts and hands We climb the hill to see if green fields lie beyond Only to realise they've faded now and gone And paintbox you are my only hope Of covering the faded past and starting out once more With a fortune in new colours new hopes to inspire I paint the path I want to take and paint a life of fire http://www.pendragon.mu/
