Wishbone Ash remake

[kirk]

Ummm...maybe then, ELP can remake BSS, Yes can remake CTTE
(Without Squire and Howe, natch)...Gilmour can remake DSOTM
w/o Roger, or vice versa, doesn't matter...you get my drift.

What they do in concert's one thing. Playing w/ a classic is another.
Oh! Maybe the 3 Genesis guys can remake "Lamb.." Interesting...
Pass.

If ELP wanted to remake BSS and leave off that inane Benny The Bouncer that would be fine by me

Artists can do what they want with their material. Working where I do, with a massive art collection, the conservators are always finding where people like Carravagio and Vermeer made new versions of their masterpieces and they ended up in collections around the world. I don't see that this is any different.

Like all art, you don't have to like it but if something is created that even one person likes then the artist has been successful in his vision.

Also. if the motive for doing a remake is money then so what? Even the great masters did this too. Nothing changes, nothing's different.

This could be a good debate. Flame on!

I'd rather not flame, thank you.

Re-reading the prior posts, I stand by what I said. Clarifying though, I view this remake effort with several parts apathy and more parts chagrin and disappointment.

As for benny the Bouncer, ok with me as long as "Seamus" from Meddle goes too!
