I've had a fascination with this band since my late teens, I always thought there was something really different and special about their music. The radio plays maybe 4 or 5 of their songs, but this band had albums full of great music that most have never heard. Their Black & White albums in particular are really great. I don't have an official favorite song, but "Astronomy" live, from Some Enchanted Evening is one that first got me hooked on them.

Radios appear! We need to fetch Desdinova. Hey @Magic - have you already dropped him a line?

 

[Speed King]

Desdinova has amazing powers of observation,...I think he already knows!

Found this on You Tube a couple days ago. Thought it was pretty cool.

 

[Speed King]

That's awesome, I love the fact that he's playing that monster riff on an acoustic!

He has his name all over the awards trophies, he really needs to get a job or something............

Some useless ST trivia. This is the only album that doesn't feature a Buck lead vocal.

True, I used to think Buck sang "Subhuman" but he didn't.

Thank You, That goes right into my useless information file.

Speaking of monster riffs.

 

[Speed King]

Nice use of a talkbox on that one!

A thousand Thank You's I haven't heard that song in ages.
