Re: Wishbone Ash remake

No Flames...well, maybe a little acid reflux

I view it as exactly the same as a painter mass producing
a painting for sales.

KW, as you know- what happens when an artist does this?
What would happen to the value of Starry Night if
more than one existed ? It dilutes the value of the original.

As far as this being "interesting", I'd say, "yeah, in the way
that a dog fight is interesting".
It's immature and ego driven to have to remind us of who
the "genius" was behind Argus...imo, of course.

I totally agree, Kirk. Good points.

Re: Wishbone Ash remake

I'd like to reiterate a few points.

I just remembered that John Wetton, on David Cross' "Exiles", sings on the title cut. That is a remake of the KC song. It is faster, much different, and almost a completely different song, and is awesome. But that is only one song - this is a remake of every song on the record.

Also, I can't get past the fact that given the acrimonious history, Martin Turner is not jealous. A spring release is in time for Rosfest.

But I guess David Pack couldn't be with Ambrosia either.
