I am a HUUUGE Crimso and Fripp fan!  I'm into all the bands and projects
Fripp has worked on.  For no good reason I try to know what my favorite
band is at all times, but it is getting increasingly difficult.

I guess my favorite band right now is MOA/Servotron/Crimso/Tangerine Dream.
I guess that makes my second favorite band Yes/Genesis/Floyd/The Who.
Ok, and my third favorite band is Negativland/ORI/Renaissance/Kansas/Eagles.
Oh yeah, my favorite solo artist would be Gabriel/Fripp/Vega/Hackett.
I'm sure I'm going to kick myself over forgetting some really great band
in there, but you get the idea.

Anybody else out there like "classical" music?  I didn't think so.
If any of you StarWars fans dig the soundtrack, you really should
check out Stravinsky's Rite of Spring and Holst's Planets for the
original dope from back in the day.  Holst doesn't have much else
of interest, but all of Stravinsky's ballet scores are totally
bitchin!  So Andreas doesn't feel like I'm ignoring the great legacy
of music by Germans, I also dig Beethoven big time, and some of
Bach, although he can get a bit mechanical and monotonous.  Mozart,
I'm sorry to report, is highly over-rated upper-class dance music
for the most part, IMHO.

Steering this out-of-control monologue back to MOA?...
I wonder what kinds of music the ASTRO-boyz are into?
I mean besides the obvious Surf influences and the bands
they've covered.

The next big thing for me to spend too much money on: Tango!
Astor Piazolla rocks!
