Then Play On: Favorite Non-Hits
Vote for 3 songs as your favorite non-hits from Then Play On. Oh Well is a hit and not in the contest. Since there is a limit of 10 choices, I left the 'Madge' songs out. You may reply your vote for those.
Poll closes in 4 days. :cool: |
Missing 4 tracks
Why did you leave out 4 beautiful tracks:

Here are the LP labels
:thumbsup: |
As I said in the original post, there is a limit of 10 choices in a poll. Secondly, "Without You" and "One Sunny Day" were on the English Rose / Pious Bird of Good Omen album poll last week. :cool:

Then Play On with different tracks
How do you account for the other tracks that are on the US pressing of Then Play On?
in particular, were there any "Hits" from the Uk version of "Then Play On" and conversly what was not included in your poll of either album |

The reason for limiting to 10 songs seems unlogic. Keep it to original first releases of the albums (which did not include Oh Well anyway) and just exclude the hits (for which countries, by the way?). :xoxo: |
another stupid poll question
The poll taker was not around during this time and was not in either of our countries
Mr Wonderful the second album, was only issued in the US as an import English Rose was the official US secoond release, and was modified to include potential hit songs not on Mr Wonderful and remove others for reasons unknown. ( I did not get to hear Rollong Man for years after I became a PG/FM fan) Then Play On had a UK release and US release with different tracks The US version Had Oh Well . The UK version had those other tracks that the pollster elected to put in PBOGO (interestingly, to me, I bought the Then Play ON in the US, as an import before the US release, and was looking for OH Well which was not on it. I loved the Album anyway) The Pius Bird of Good Omen was also not a US release but also an after the fact import why these are included, I guess is the dicretion of the pollster, however flawed it is. OH Well! |

Before The Beginning is a work of art. There are very few songs I've listed to in my life that I would consider to be absolutely perfect. The lyrics are powerful and the music is fantastic. It's also one of those songs where the live version blows the album version away and I LOVE the album version. I also firmly believe that there is nobody else who would be able to do this song the justice it deserves. This is Peter Green's song.
A couple live versions of Before The Beginning: January 30, 1970: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qf7IT69AN3k April 24, 1970: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDJ24RAcb48 Matt |

My 14-year-old guitar-crazy nephew is watching your guitar lesson videos on YouTube. He's learning how to play "The Chain" -- you teach him what drop D tuning is. |
