"Does my crush love me? I really need to know.""Do you think we're living in the most advanced civilization that has ever inhabited Earth?""King Crimson was at their peak with Wetton, David Cross and Bruford, but Taylor Swift is a billionaire. STEFAN - have you heard Mozart's newly discovered 'A Very Little Night Music'?""What's your opinion of Jordan Peterson's work?""Is statism collapsing?""Is your book available in hardcover?""What's your favorite heavy metal band?""is the traditional Catholicism the most based thing on the Earth?""What happened to your YouTube channel?""Do you think these problems with NAP can be resolved?"The Non-Aggression Principle (NAP), is a libertarian ethical stance that argues that aggression—defined as the initiation of force or fraud against another person's property or person—is inherently immoral. While the principle has intuitive appeal, it faces significant philosophical, practical, and ethical challenges that undermine its universality and application."1. Ambiguity in Defining "Aggression""Subjectivity of Aggression: The NAP relies on a clear definition of "aggression," yet many actions can be interpreted as aggressive or non-aggressive depending on perspective. For instance:"If someone refuses to vaccinate during a pandemic, is that an act of aggression by endangering others' health, or is forcing them to vaccinate aggression?"Pollution from a factory might harm others, but is it aggression if the harm is indirect and unintended?"This ambiguity makes it difficult to apply the NAP consistently."2. Lack of a Mechanism for Collective Action"Addressing Collective Problems:"The NAP is highly individualistic and struggles to address issues that require collective solutions, such as environmental protection, public health, or infrastructure."For example:"Climate change results from aggregate actions that harm others, yet enforcing emissions reductions could be seen as an initiation of force against individuals or corporations."Public goods like roads, education, and defense require taxation, which the NAP might label as aggression, leaving no clear path to fund or manage such necessities."3. Assumes Absolute Property Rights"Property Rights Are Not Universally Agreed Upon: The NAP assumes that property rights are fundamental and self-evident, yet property systems are human constructs that vary across cultures and contexts."For example:"Indigenous communities often view land as communal rather than private, making the enforcement of private property rights in such contexts potentially aggressive."Historical Injustice: Many property holdings result from historical aggression (e.g., colonization, slavery). The NAP offers no clear guidance on addressing these injustices because enforcing reparations could violate the principle."4. Fails to Account for Power Imbalances"Inequality and Coercion:"The NAP does not account for systemic power imbalances that can lead to de facto coercion without overt aggression."For example:"A worker "choosing" between starvation and accepting exploitative labor conditions may not face physical aggression, but their choices are constrained by economic coercion."Corporate monopolies can dominate markets and restrict freedom without violating the NAP, yet they create conditions of harm or dependency."5. Incompatibility with Emergency Situations"Moral Exceptions: The NAP struggles with situations where initiating force might be morally justified or necessary to prevent greater harm."For example:"Breaking into a cabin to survive in a blizzard technically violates the NAP but might be considered ethically justifiable."Preventive action, such as disarming someone threatening violence, could be seen as aggression under the NAP, even if it avoids greater harm."6. Over-Simplification of Ethics"Moral Complexity: Ethical decision-making often involves balancing competing values, such as individual rights, collective welfare, and justice. The NAP reduces morality to a single principle, ignoring the complexity of real-world dilemmas."Utilitarian Concerns: Following the NAP rigidly could lead to suboptimal outcomes, such as allowing preventable suffering or harm if addressing it would require "aggression.""7. Practical Limitations"Enforcement Dilemmas: Even within a system governed by the NAP, enforcing the principle requires some authority to define and address aggression. For instance:"Resolving disputes over property boundaries or contractual breaches might involve coercive mechanisms, contradicting the NAP."A purely voluntary system lacks a practical means of ensuring compliance or protecting vulnerable individuals from exploitation or harm."8. Historical and Theoretical Criticism"Historical Evidence: Societies that have operated on principles akin to the NAP (e.g., laissez-faire capitalism) have often resulted in significant inequality, exploitation, and harm, suggesting that the principle is insufficient for creating equitable or stable societies."Philosophical Counterarguments: Thinkers like Karl Marx or John Rawls argue that focusing solely on individual rights and property ignores the broader social and structural forces that shape human relationships and justice."While the Non-Aggression Principle provides a simple and appealing ethical framework, its oversimplification of complex moral and social issues renders it problematic in practice. It fails to account for ambiguous definitions of aggression, systemic power imbalances, collective action needs, and situations where initiating force might prevent greater harm. Ultimately, the NAP's rigid adherence to individual rights and property neglects the interconnected and nuanced realities of human society.""when next bitcoin roundtable?"GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Also get the Truth About the French Revolution, multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material, as well as targeted AIs for Real-Time Relationships, BitCoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-Ins.

As a Conscious Leadership mentor, David helps executive leaders transform their leadership presence and performance. As a teenager, his career began very differently; he was intrigued by numbers and business, and this fascination led him to pursue a career in accounting. However, his spiritual journey profoundly understood the purpose of his life's path. David will share the phrase “either everything is sacred or nothing is," illustrating how he sees the sacred elements in every step of his journey.Today, we will discuss transformative ideas at the intersection of spirituality and global change. We'll explore a topic that's both revolutionary and provocative: Bitcoin, A Spiritual Solution For Humanity. David brings a unique perspective, merging his deep background in finance, spirituality, and leadership to unpack the profound implications of Bitcoin in our world today.In this episode, we discuss the journey from traditional financial systems to the decentralized promise of Bitcoin, its potential to disrupt economic inequality, and its spiritual resonance as a tool for individual empowerment and global change. We'll explore Bitcoin's fixed supply, community trust, and its role in awakening people to the true nature of money. David shares how Bitcoin can serve as a means of wealth preservation in troubled economies and as a catalyst for creating a more just and spiritually aligned financial future. Plus, we'll touch on the exciting potential of Bitcoin to bridge us toward a more sustainable and community-driven economy.So, grab your headphones and join us as we look beyond the headlines and dive into Bitcoin's spiritual and practical dimensions with David Wetton on Sacred Changemakers.Key TakeawaysDavid's unique skill set in leadership, spirituality, and financeHow Bitcoin was created in response to a corrupt banking systemComparison to a spiritual movement with clear meaning, purpose, and valuesThe Gene Keys interpretation for BitcoinA broader vision for the future of finance and moneyMemorable Quote*“Bitcoin is a spiritual movement.

Fans of our show know that The Wolf and Action Jackson have a special place in their hearts for 80s prog/pop rock band Asia. While we've spoken with keyboardist Geoff Downes (UAWIL 79) and drummer Carl Palmer (UAWIL 80), we never had the opportunity to speak with singer/bassist John Wetton as he passed away before we started our show. However, there have been many celebrations of John's life and works in 2023 and to tell us more about the kind of person John Wetton was, we've enlisted the great Oliver Wakeman to offer some stories about the man himself. Oliver toured with Yes during 2009-2011 and during that time, befriended John Wetton as Asia was touring with Yes. Despite Oliver being a generation younger and the fact that John had worked with his father Rick, John took Oliver under his wing and they formed a bond that had a big impact on Oliver (and John too). Oliver relates some stories of his time with John including watching him play every night, how John checked in on him as he slated to transition out of Yes and one time John joined Oliver and his band to play Heat of the Moment. Oliver will also give us some tidbits about music he's working on, including his plan to play songs he wrote with Yes on From A Page live this spring at Winters End Festival. Oliver is helping to promote the new box set John Wetton: An Extraordinary Life which is out November 24 around the world - an 8 disc set of his solo albums with bonus tracks and discs full of rarities, unreleased gems and live cuts (more information below). We had a great time chatting with Oliver and hope you'll enjoy our conversation about John, Yes, prog music and more!

The supergroup U.K. was founded by former King Crimson percussionist Bill Bruford (also a former founder of Yes) and bassist and vocalist John Wetton (also a former member of Uriah Heep, and Roxy Music). After failing to reform King Crimson, each of the two brought in a musician they thought would work well in the group. Wetton brought in Eddie Jobson, violinist and keyboardist from Frank Zappa's band. Bruford brought in Allan Holdsworth on guitars (who had worked on Bruford's prior solo project. Their self titled debut album was released in May, 1978. Although a couple of songs were edited for single release, the album U.K. is best known as a prog rock masterpiece, and is cited as inspirational to many musicians who followed in the prog rock genre. After an extensive tour supporting the album, Wetton and Jobson had a falling out with Holdsworth and fired him. Bill Bruford left at that time and was replaced by Terry Bozzio, another alumnus of Frank Zappa's band and a future founding member of Missing Persons. John Wetton would go on in the days after U.K. to be the front man for Asia.Rob brings us the prog rock monster-piece. In the Dead of NightThe track that leads off the album was one of two songs to be edited for release as a single. On the album it is the first of three songs which form a continuous suite on the first album side. The 7/4 time and the synthesizer - the Yamaha CS-80 had just been released - are prog rock hallmarks. The electric violin is an unusual addition.By the Light of DayThis track is the second movement of the "In the Dead of Night" suite. Rather than have a clear change in tracks, there is a slow transition via a "spacey" interlude into the new song of the suite. "Black clouds moving gray skies to thunder. Kinetic sunrise fever and flood. Fire and water element anger horizon melting to blood."Presto Vivace and RepriseThis is the third movement of the "In the Dead of Night suite. This is a much faster piece (as the term Vivace would suggest) before transitioning back into a reprise of "In the Dead of Night."Time to KillThe abrupt start to this song is due to the way the tracks drift into each other. The concept is that of boredom, of being stuck in a place. "Time to kill, going nowhere, killing time, staying where there's time to kill, going nowhere..." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:That'll Be the Day by Buddy Holly (from the motion picture "The Buddy Holly Story") Gary Busey was nominated for the Oscar for his portrayal of early rocker Buddy Holly in this film. Busey would sing and play for the part. STAFF PICKS:Goodbye Girl by David Gates Bruce leads off the staff picks with a soft rock solo from former Bread front man David Gates. The song is from the Neil Simon movie "The Goodbye Girl," which would lead to Richard Dreyfuss becoming the youngest man to win an Oscar for Best Actor at the time. Lay Down Sally by Eric Clapton Brian presents a pop hit from Clapton's album Slowhand. It went to number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was written by Clapton, George Terry (guitar), and Marcy Levy (who sings the female parts on the song). It was written in the country blues style of J.J. Cale, and hit number 26 on the Hot Country Songs chart, Clapton's best showing on that chart as a crossover.Ain't It Fun by Dead BoysWayne features a song from Cleveland's own Dead Boys. This song appears on their second studio album, "We Have Come for Your Children." They were known as one of the rowdiest bands on the punk scene. It hit number 8 on the Mainstream Rock charts, and is an ode to the punk rock lifestyle.With a Little Luck by WingsRob brings us Paul McCartney with a song recorded largely in the Virgin Islands on a yacht equipped with a 24-track mobile recording studio installed on it. This single from the album "London Town" hit number 1 on the pop charts. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Alaska by U.K. This instrumental lets us do some double dipping with the track that leads off side 2 of the U.K. album.

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Uriah Heep. es una banda de rock británica con tintes progresivos, formada en Londres en 1969, la cual es considerada como "uno de los grupos más populares de principios de los 70. La banda lanzó varios álbumes muy exitosos comercialmente a principios de los años 1970, como Demons & Wizards (1972), The Magician's Birthday (1972), o Uriah Heep Live (1973), pero su audiencia declinó en los 80, al punto de convertirse esencialmente en un grupo de culto, en los Estados Unidos y en Europa, principalmente. Uriah Heep fue la primera banda de occidente en tocar en la Rusia soviética, bajo la política de Gorbachov, llamada glásnost. Han vendido 40 millones de copias en todo el mundo. Constantes cambios en la banda han dejado al guitarrista Mick Box como único miembro original y líder. Uriah Heep , Surgió a finales de los años sesenta, de las raíces de Spice, banda en la que militaban el mítico vocalista David Byron, y el guitarrista Mick Box, primeros fundadores del grupo. Uriah Heep se convirtió en una verdadera banda pionera del género "Hard rock", aunque destacó por la heterogeneidad de su música, a caballo entre el Hard rock, el estilo progresivo y la épica, en dos de sus álbumes más conocidos: los ya mencionados Demons & Wizards y The Magician's Birthday, a la postre influencias claras para bandas como Helloween y otras seguidoras del rock épico. Se caracterizó, entre otras cosas, por sus constantes cambios de alineación, en la cual el único miembro permanente ha sido el guitarrista Mick Box. En el año 1970, cambiaron su nombre de Spice a Uriah Heep, influenciados por un peculiar personaje de una de las más universales obras de Charles Dickens: David Copperfield. Fue en ese año cuando entraría a formar parte de la banda Ken Hensley, proveniente de la banda psicodélica The Gods, quien se convertiría con el paso del tiempo en verdadera alma, y compositor principal de casi todas las canciones del grupo en su época dorada. Hensley se ocuparía de los teclados, y en ocasiones de la slide guitar. También puso la voz a uno de los mayores éxitos por aquel entonces, "Lady in black". Box, Byron y Hensley se convertirían en los pilares fundamentales de la banda, asistiendo a constantes cambios en el bajo y batería, hasta que en el año 1972 ingresan Gary Thain (bajo) y Lee Kerslake (batería). Hasta entonces habían publicado tres álbumes: Very 'eavy, Very 'humble, en 1970, que supuso un magnífico debut, pero que la crítica defenestró con el argumento de que era una copia descarada de Deep Purple, algo incierto que se podía explicar porque en aquellos tiempos los dos conjuntos llegaron a compartir salas de ensayo, y se dejaron influenciar por el sonido predominante de los teclados de Jon Lord. En poco menos de un año, se resarcieron ante crítica y público con la publicación de Salisbury (1971) y Look at Yourself (1971), disco este último en el que encontraron su sonido característico, como afirmarían más tarde. Las ventas comenzaron a dispararse tanto en su país de origen como en el extranjero, encontrando en países como Alemania, Países Bajos o Japón sus más fieles seguidores. Entonces llegó 1972, con las nuevas y, a la postre, definitivas incorporaciones que enriquecieron el sonido de la banda. La publicación de Demons & Wizards en 1972 les llevó a lo más alto, un disco redondo que bien podría haber sido un trabajo conceptual, ya que sus temas giraban casi en su totalidad en torno a temas alegóricos y llenos de fantasía épica. En este álbum está incluido su mayor hit, "Easy Livin'". Este trabajo encontró la continuidad perfecta en The Magician's Birthday, que salió a la venta a los pocos meses de publicarse el anterior, y que les proveyó de fama definitiva en todo el mundo. El sonido de este último es más progresivo y sigue la temática de álbum conceptual, que comenzó el anterior. La portada de Roger Dean, artista en alza que ya trabajaba con bandas como Yes, contribuyó a realzar, desde el arte gráfico, el trabajo impecable de la grabación. Durante 1973 grabaron el disco Sweet Freedom que supuso otro trabajo redondo, y del cual se desprenden varios clásicos de la banda que se escuchan hasta nuestros días. Ya en 1974, luego de la gira de la cual lanzaron el disco en vivo Uriah Heep Live 1973, grabaron Wonderworld, donde comienzan a alejarse gradualmente del sonido progresivo, apostando por un hard rock más simple y directo. Justamente este disco representaría el último que grabaran con el extinto bajista neozelandés Gary Thain, puesto que sería despedido a principios de 1975, para ser reemplazado por el exbajista y cantante de King Crimson, John Wetton. Ya con Wetton en la banda, lanzan en 1975 Return to Fantasy, un disco donde también hay clásicos, aunque se comienza a notar una baja en el rendimiento general de la banda. En diciembre de 1975, el bajista Gary Thain muere de sobredosis por heroína. En 1976 graban High & Mighty, que sin dudas representa el mayor fracaso de la banda en los 70, debido a las tensiones internas y a que prescindieron de Gerry Bron, su productor habitual, para producirlo ellos mismos. Si bien es sabido que la crítica no suele reconocer en este un buen trabajo, tiene algunos temas destacables, como el clásico "One Way or Another" (que cantase John Wetton), o la balada "Weep in Silence". En medio de la gira de presentación del disco, David Byron fue despedido, a partir de este momento Byron se dedicó a su carrera como solista, hasta su fallecimiento, acaecido en 1985. La banda a mediados de los años 1970, con John Wetton Tras la salida de Byron, Uriah Heep, experimentó diferentes cambios en sus formaciones y en su estilo musical. Más allá, de su Rock progresivo, bien conocido y de su aporte a lo que se llamaría el Hard rock y heavy metal, poco después de la salida de Byron, el grupo modifica su estética y su música, dejando entrever un cambio de rumbo hacia un sonido más comercial, al estilo del AOR con toques de Música disco. Es así como, a finales de 1976, los reemplazos de John Wetton y David Byron, se conforman con la entrada de un bajista procedente de la banda de David Bowie, y el cantante de Lucifer's Friend; ellos eran Trevor Bolder (el bajista que más tiempo estuvo activo en la banda) y John Lawton. Los fanes tardaron en aceptar dicha formación y estilo, de cariz algo comercial, aunque la calidad de sus composiciones los hace ser bien recordados por todos. Los discos Firefly, Innocent Victim y Fallen Angel constituyen la cadena de tres grabaciones de estudio con Lawton y Bolder, más el disco en vivo Live in Europe 1979. Sin embargo, los egos personales de Lawton y Hensley chocaban demasiado, y se opta por despedir a Lawton, dejando otra vez, para 1980, a la banda sin cantante. Es allí cuando los Heep se vieron en la necesidad de conseguir reemplazante, tanto de vocalista como de batería, ya que por diferencias con la producción, el baterista Lee Kerslake había dejado el grupo, marchando a tocar para Ozzy Osbourne. Para 1980 llegan los reemplazos, con John Sloman ex-Lone Star a los vocales y Chris Slade, ex-Manfred Mann's Earth Band a la batería. Esta formación solo grabaría un disco, Conquest (1980), que no sería muy bien recibido por la crítica especializada, pero que sirvió al menos para actualizar el sonido de la banda, y mantenerla viva. Varios de los temas de este disco, fueron probados y grabados con el anterior cantante, John Lawton, entre los cuales se puede destacar "Feelings", "Fools" o "Been Hurt", que también formarían parte de un disco que no fue editado en su momento, luego lanzado como un disco pirata, titulado Ten Miles High. Las diferencias musicales entre la banda y Ken Hensley se acentúan, y este último deja el grupo a mitad de la gira, por lo que los Heep, sin su compositor principal, deben continuar y reclutan para esto -temporalmente- a un viejo conocido de Sloman, Gregg Dechert. Con él graban el sencillo "Think It Over / My Joanna Needs Tunning". A finales de año, Sloman, Slade, Dechert y Bolder (que se iría a tocar en Wishbone Ash) dejan a Mick Box solo, dando así por terminada la primera etapa de Uriah Heep. Durante 1981, Box ofreció algunos conciertos como solista, pero las cartas de diferentes fanes alrededor del mundo, expresando cuan importante era para sus vidas Uriah Heep, le dan a Box la energía necesaria para recomenzar con aquella banda mítica. Es así como recluta al prestigioso bajista (ex-Rainbow) Bob Daisley, y juntos deciden ir a visitar al primer cantante de la banda, David Byron, para ofrecerle nuevamente ese puesto, el cual este rechaza. Aun así, contratan al cantante del grupo Trapeze, Peter Goalby y junto con ellos, vuelve Lee Kerslake e ingresa el tecladista John Sinclair El primer trabajo con esta formación sería Abominog (1982), un disco redondo donde prácticamente todos los temas son clásicos (más una reversión del tema "Think It Over"), y sirven para colocar a Heep con un nuevo sonido, más duro, y cercano a la NWOBHM, no obstante el marcado regusto comercial de ciertos temas. Con este disco y formación, Uriah Heep vuelve a recobrar algo de fama: el siguiente álbum, Head First, seguiría por esa senda con temas muy bien logrados como "Red Lights", "Stay on Top" o "Lonely Nights" que es un cover de Bryan Adams. Para 1985, Bob Daisley decide abandonar la banda amistosamente, y vuelve el bajista Trevor Bolder, para grabar el último disco de la "era Goalby", Equator, que sería sin dudas, para todos los fanes, uno de los discos más flojos de la historia de Uriah Heep (incluso más flojo que High & Mighty y Conquest), se podría rescatar la canción que abre el disco, llamada "Rockarama", como único corte destacado. A fin de año, el agotamiento en la voz de Peter Goalby hace que los Heep pierdan al cantante, y al tecladista al mismo tiempo, una vez más. Luego de convocar al teclista Phil Lanzon, en 1986 deciden probar con el cantante Steff Fontaine, pero a pesar de su buena voz, su actitud hace que sea despedido. De este modo, llega el que hasta el día de hoy es el cantante que más ha durado en la banda: Bernie Shaw, quien procedía del grupo NWOBHM Praying Mantis. Con el primer disco de estudio con Shaw, Raging Silence (1989) tendrían cierto éxito, sobre todo con el viejo clásico de la banda Argent "Hold Your Head Up", y con un tema escrito por Peter Goalby, "Blood Red Roses". Cabe destacar que, hacia fines de los 80, Uriah Heep se convertiría en la primera banda de rock occidental en aprovechar la política conocida como glásnost, en la aún vigente Unión Soviética: gracias a un conocido productor húngaro, lograron dar el primer recital tras la Cortina de Hierro; en Moscú llenaron el Estadio Olímpico Luzhnikí varias noches, el total de gente que presenció los shows ascendió a 180.000 personas. Luego de estos logros, ya en la era del CD, en los 90 y en los 2000, las ediciones de nuevos álbumes de estudio se fueron tornando cada vez más espaciadas (Different World (1991), Sea of Light (1995), Sonic Origami (1998), Wake the Sleeper (2008), Into the Wild (2011), etc, pero la banda se mantiene constantemente en giras por Europa, y tienen mucho éxito, quizás no el de su época dorada, pero sí mucho más del que tenían en los años 80. En el año 2002 es editado un CD en vivo: The Magician's Birthday Party, grabado con Ken Hensley y John Lawton, quienes se reunieron momentáneamente con Heep para la ocasión, mientras que en el 2006, por problemas de salud, abandona la banda el veterano baterista Lee Kerslake, dando paso a otro ex-Ozzy para ocupar la batería, en este caso Rusell Gilbrook. En el mismo año, el grupo rumano de rock "Iris" edita un disco para rememorar sus 25 años de existencia e incluyen una colaboración con Mick Box y Bernie Shaw, con la canción "Lady in Black" cantando de forma bilingüe (rumano y inglés). Del mismo modo en 2011 se publican Into the Wild, y el directo Live in Armenia, este último en formato doble CD/DVD. Por su parte, en el año 2013 se conoce la triste noticia del fallecimiento del bajista Trevor Bolder, y en 2014 es lanzado el 23º álbum de estudio del grupo, titulado Outsider. Bolder sería reemplazado por Davey Rimmer en mayo de 2013, con quien editarían un nuevo álbum de estudio en 2018, Living the Dream. Uriah Heep mantiene una cantidad significativa de seguidores en Alemania, los Países Bajos, Escandinavia, los Balcanes, Japón, Rusia y en Europa del Este en general, donde aún tocan en estadios. No obstante, y aunque en la actualidad siguen gozando de buena reputación, sus grandes obras aparecen en la década de los setenta, más específicamente en la primera mitad de la década, durante aquellos años su nombre figuró casi a la par junto a los de Black Sabbath, Deep Purple o Led Zeppelin, formando el cuarteto de máximos referentes del Rock duro británico.Escucha este episodio completo y accede a todo el contenido exclusivo de Biblioteca Del Metal - (Recopilation).

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Uriah Heep. es una banda de rock británica con tintes progresivos, formada en Londres en 1969, la cual es considerada como "uno de los grupos más populares de principios de los 70. La banda lanzó varios álbumes muy exitosos comercialmente a principios de los años 1970, como Demons & Wizards (1972), The Magician's Birthday (1972), o Uriah Heep Live (1973), pero su audiencia declinó en los 80, al punto de convertirse esencialmente en un grupo de culto, en los Estados Unidos y en Europa, principalmente. Uriah Heep fue la primera banda de occidente en tocar en la Rusia soviética, bajo la política de Gorbachov, llamada glásnost. Han vendido 40 millones de copias en todo el mundo. Constantes cambios en la banda han dejado al guitarrista Mick Box como único miembro original y líder. Uriah Heep , Surgió a finales de los años sesenta, de las raíces de Spice, banda en la que militaban el mítico vocalista David Byron, y el guitarrista Mick Box, primeros fundadores del grupo. Uriah Heep se convirtió en una verdadera banda pionera del género "Hard rock", aunque destacó por la heterogeneidad de su música, a caballo entre el Hard rock, el estilo progresivo y la épica, en dos de sus álbumes más conocidos: los ya mencionados Demons & Wizards y The Magician's Birthday, a la postre influencias claras para bandas como Helloween y otras seguidoras del rock épico. Se caracterizó, entre otras cosas, por sus constantes cambios de alineación, en la cual el único miembro permanente ha sido el guitarrista Mick Box. En el año 1970, cambiaron su nombre de Spice a Uriah Heep, influenciados por un peculiar personaje de una de las más universales obras de Charles Dickens: David Copperfield. Fue en ese año cuando entraría a formar parte de la banda Ken Hensley, proveniente de la banda psicodélica The Gods, quien se convertiría con el paso del tiempo en verdadera alma, y compositor principal de casi todas las canciones del grupo en su época dorada. Hensley se ocuparía de los teclados, y en ocasiones de la slide guitar. También puso la voz a uno de los mayores éxitos por aquel entonces, "Lady in black". Box, Byron y Hensley se convertirían en los pilares fundamentales de la banda, asistiendo a constantes cambios en el bajo y batería, hasta que en el año 1972 ingresan Gary Thain (bajo) y Lee Kerslake (batería). Hasta entonces habían publicado tres álbumes: Very 'eavy, Very 'humble, en 1970, que supuso un magnífico debut, pero que la crítica defenestró con el argumento de que era una copia descarada de Deep Purple, algo incierto que se podía explicar porque en aquellos tiempos los dos conjuntos llegaron a compartir salas de ensayo, y se dejaron influenciar por el sonido predominante de los teclados de Jon Lord. En poco menos de un año, se resarcieron ante crítica y público con la publicación de Salisbury (1971) y Look at Yourself (1971), disco este último en el que encontraron su sonido característico, como afirmarían más tarde. Las ventas comenzaron a dispararse tanto en su país de origen como en el extranjero, encontrando en países como Alemania, Países Bajos o Japón sus más fieles seguidores. Entonces llegó 1972, con las nuevas y, a la postre, definitivas incorporaciones que enriquecieron el sonido de la banda. La publicación de Demons & Wizards en 1972 les llevó a lo más alto, un disco redondo que bien podría haber sido un trabajo conceptual, ya que sus temas giraban casi en su totalidad en torno a temas alegóricos y llenos de fantasía épica. En este álbum está incluido su mayor hit, "Easy Livin'". Este trabajo encontró la continuidad perfecta en The Magician's Birthday, que salió a la venta a los pocos meses de publicarse el anterior, y que les proveyó de fama definitiva en todo el mundo. El sonido de este último es más progresivo y sigue la temática de álbum conceptual, que comenzó el anterior. La portada de Roger Dean, artista en alza que ya trabajaba con bandas como Yes, contribuyó a realzar, desde el arte gráfico, el trabajo impecable de la grabación. Durante 1973 grabaron el disco Sweet Freedom que supuso otro trabajo redondo, y del cual se desprenden varios clásicos de la banda que se escuchan hasta nuestros días. Ya en 1974, luego de la gira de la cual lanzaron el disco en vivo Uriah Heep Live 1973, grabaron Wonderworld, donde comienzan a alejarse gradualmente del sonido progresivo, apostando por un hard rock más simple y directo. Justamente este disco representaría el último que grabaran con el extinto bajista neozelandés Gary Thain, puesto que sería despedido a principios de 1975, para ser reemplazado por el exbajista y cantante de King Crimson, John Wetton. Ya con Wetton en la banda, lanzan en 1975 Return to Fantasy, un disco donde también hay clásicos, aunque se comienza a notar una baja en el rendimiento general de la banda. En diciembre de 1975, el bajista Gary Thain muere de sobredosis por heroína. En 1976 graban High & Mighty, que sin dudas representa el mayor fracaso de la banda en los 70, debido a las tensiones internas y a que prescindieron de Gerry Bron, su productor habitual, para producirlo ellos mismos. Si bien es sabido que la crítica no suele reconocer en este un buen trabajo, tiene algunos temas destacables, como el clásico "One Way or Another" (que cantase John Wetton), o la balada "Weep in Silence". En medio de la gira de presentación del disco, David Byron fue despedido, a partir de este momento Byron se dedicó a su carrera como solista, hasta su fallecimiento, acaecido en 1985. La banda a mediados de los años 1970, con John Wetton Tras la salida de Byron, Uriah Heep, experimentó diferentes cambios en sus formaciones y en su estilo musical.

King Crimson - Cadence And Cascade (1970) There are versions with Greg Lake and Gordon Haskell singing lead floating around. Now the rarely heard version with Boz Burrell, who I think was being groomed as a kind of heartthrob in mid-60s England but ended up learning bass from Bob Fripp of King Crimson. Then he joined Bad Company and didn't sing a note. KC must have really believed in this song. Their second album was a virtual carbon copy of their first. Don Potter - Unchain My Heart (1978) Caravan - The Love in Your Eye (Live) (1974) A more energetic Moody Blues, a far better band than Barclay James Harvest, Caravan never reached any sort of appreciable sales, but they were pretty interesting. Using a full orchestra in the studio and live before even Renaissance, listening to them reminded me of that same old pop vs. prog de-evolution that so many prog bands ended up suffering. Elizabeth C. Farrell for New York State Assembly (1968) Anti-hippie political campaign flexi-disc. Elizabeth C. (Betty) Farrell was a New York State Assembly candidate for the 138th district in 1968. Embryo - Wajang Woman (1976) Family - In My Own Time (1971) Family - The Weavers Answer (1970) Sri Darwin Gross - With Eckankar(1972) Religion ruins everything. It's a constant scam with willing, gullible fools who keep pumping money and mindpower into what they hope is salvation of a permanent kind. But it's all a big grift. All of it. And so it was with a fellow named Paul Twitchell, who started a loony off-shoot of Scientology called Eckankar. This was around 1964. When he died in 1971, his wife chose Darwin Gross as his successor. And this album was released. It's pretty high-quality backing for such a mediocre singer. Judge for yourself! Family - Burlesque (1972) The bass player is our own prog god John Wetton! This was what he was doing between Mogul Thrash and King Crimson. I wonder if HE sang "Cadence and Cascade" at one time. This is a combination of boogie and prog if there ever was one. Wetton's playing style is instantly recognizable. Frank Pellico - Shaft (1976) Pellico played the stadium organs for both the Chicago Cubs (Wrigley) and the Blackhawks (United Center). Funny Bone – Ride On Bones (1977) I love this record. Calvin Arnold recorded singles until the '80s. Worked with Fats Domino in 1970. I owe Fats a show. Chatham - Hump Up (197?) Johnny Watson - Unchain My Heart (1967) Before recording his own hits in the '70s and doing stuff with early acolyte Frank Zappa, he was sort of like James Brown on this release, an instrumental album without the "Guitar" part in his name. Lennie Macdonald - Sad City Woman (1975) Featuring Mike Giles on drums. You know. MICHAEL Giles, the first drummer for....King Crimson. The violin solo features Wilf Gibson, who played with Electric Light Orchestra on their first two albums. Wilf played on LOTS of stuff in the decade. Including CARAVAN, and, most notably, on Kiki Dee's most popular album, I've Got The Music In Me. That was released on Elton John's label. The singer sounds just like Gerry Rafferty. Or vice-versa. De Maskers - Unchain My Heart (1967) I should have played this, their 1965 collaboration with what must have been an increasingly desperate Chubby Checker. Next time. I just love this cover. De Maskers (The Masks) was a Dutch pop group. The mask gimmick lasted a year, maybe? Streetwalkers - Me and Me Horse and Me Rum (1976) From Discogs: In 1974 Roger Chapman and Charlie Whitney formed a band with a fluid line up including Family and King Crimson members. They released an album "Chapman Whitney Streetwalkers" the same year. In 1975 guitarist and vocalist Bobby Tench from The Jeff Beck Group. They released three studio albums as Streetwalkers, before disbanding in 1977. Also on this record: Wilf Gibson. Boz - Isn't That So (1966) Neoton Familia - California Dreamin' (1978) Hungarian disco for you. NGC-4594 - Skipping Through the Night (1968) The name refers to the designation for the Sombrero Galaxy in the New General Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars or NGC. I hate The Doors and their influence on bands that tried the same thing they were trying to do. Painted Faces - Lost You In My Mind (1967) Chapman-Whitney - Parisienne High Heels (1974) Another collaboration featuring John Wetton and Michael Giles who played in different iterations of King Crimson. Great song. Roger Chapman's voice is a little offputting at first, but these songs are uniformly interesting. Roger Chapman and The Shortlist - Prisoner (1981) More good stuff despite the cheesy '80s synth, and more John Wetton on bass. Sakura (櫻花) - Papa's Got a Brand New Bag (1971) Shankar Ganesh - Coca Cola (198?) From the liner notes of the compilation: "Play That Beat Mr. Raja" is the very first compilation dedicated to Tamil recordings in the West. It explores the wild shores of these late 80's Kollywood music productions. With an avalanche of cinematic strings, analog synths, mind-blowing vocal punchlines, and drumkit earthquakes mixed with folkloric percussive elements, it reveals the audacity of composers such as Ilayaraja, Shankar Ganesh, or Hamsalekha. Covering an impressive range of styles, it features Kamal Hassan's vocoded rap "Vikram Vikram", Shankar Ganesh's disco stomper "Coca Cola", and the irresistible Bontempi instrumental "Love Theme", among many other hits. Straddling boundaries between traditional southern Indian identity and digested western influences, these selected oddities remain a lesson of creativity and freedom in the world of soundtracks, with their stunning incorporation of the most typical of 80s tools in a classical context, and constant love for daring structures and demented arrangements. Sri Darwin Gross - At The Grassroots (1972) You are Soul, an eternal, creative being. Unlimited. Divine. Does something inside you long to know life’s purpose? To make sense of the world around you? Eckankar is an active, individual, creative spiritual practice. A companion and road map for your journey home—to the heights of Self-Discovery and God-Discovery, and beyond. Come along and discover the most secret part of yourself. The key to spiritual freedom lies within you. Shigeko Toya - Unchain My Heart (1973) Mell Martin - Space Oddity (1980) Sri Darwin Gross - It Just Is! (1972)

Music Review of the 1974 classic album by King Crimson Red - Robert fripp, john Wetton and Bill Bruford at the peak of their powers
MARCH of 1982 “Asia” by Asia In early 1981 with the apparent demise of prog-rock supergroups Yes and Emerson Lake & Palmer, a new supergroup began. With Jon Wetton (King Crimson) on vocals and bass guitar, Steve Howe (Yes) on lead guitar, Geoff Downes (Yes and The Buggles) on keyboards, and Carl Palmer (Emerson, Lake, and Palmer) on drums, Asia began work on this self-titled debut album which would rocket up the charts with a combination of complex musicality and tight, accessible tracks. The continuing popularity of MTV would help propel this supergroup to commercial success that would last beyond The Heat of the Moment. We hope you enjoy these 4 tracks presented by Bruce. “Only Time Will Tell” This track written by Downes and Wetton tells a tale of a man leaving the woman he loved after finding out that she was just using him for her own gain. He predicts that she will have a lonely future, but "only time will tell." “Sole Survivor” Downes and Wetton wrote most of Asia's songs on the debut album including this one. This deeper cut is a great choice for motivation during training runs - but if you're going out for a bike ride, don't forget your helmet! “Time Again” Despite its success, this album received criticism. Prog rock fans panned it for being commercially oriented, and pop music critics considered it too progressive. “Wildest Dreams” This is an anti-war song which was a commercial success. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK: “Theme for Magnum PI” by Mike Post This was one of Mike Post's many hits from the 80's for television. The detective drama featured Tom Selleck, the lead actor in this TV show, who was originally approached by Steven Spielberg to play the lead in the Indiana Jones movies. Selleck had to turn it down due to his commitment to Magnum PI. STAFF PICKS: “Run to the Hills” by Iron Maiden Perhaps the most famous song from heavy metals' Iron Maiden, Wayne describes how this driving track is inspired by the plight of Native Americans. “867-5309/Jenny” by Tommy Tutone Perhaps the most famous song from heavy metals' Iron Maiden, Wayne describes how this driving track is inspired by the plight of Native Americans. “Pretty Woman” by Van Halen Several songs off Van Halen's Diver Down album were covers, including this one originally written by Roy Orbison. One of Rob's favorites. “Fantasy” by Aldo Nova This is the most popular song from Canadian singer and producer Aldo Nova. It's got a killer intro, and Bruce advises you to break out your leopard skin pants, folks! LAUGH TRACK: “Pac Man Fever” by Buckner & Garcia We finish off with this video game inspired comedy track that reached number 9 on the Billboard charts.

Episode 44 – Asia Part 5 Aura, Silent Nation & Phoenix Joe continues his solo consideration of the Asia catalog, finishing up the John Payne era with Aura and Silent Nation before moving on to the rebirth of original Asia with Phoenix. Aura, always a Joe favorite, fares well over time and there is much in this album to appreciate. The long list of guest musicians provides depth and interest across the tracks. The songwriting is solid and interesting. And, of course, Aura contains what may be the best Asia track ever in “Free”. Simply phenomenal. The John Payne era of Asia finishes strong with Silent Nation. The fact that this album was recorded as a band is obvious upon listening and provides a warmer, more organic feel. Guthrie Govan is a consistent highlight on Silent Nation and Billy Sherwood and Jay Schellen arrive on the scene. Phoenix sees a significant shift back to the original lineup of Downes, Howe, Palmer and Wetton. As one might expect from such a reunion, there is a lot of energy in the performance and songwriting on Phoenix. This is an album that continues to get better with repeated listens Twitter: @progpala Email: progpala@gmail.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/ProgPala YouTube: www.youtube.com/channel/UCw_Xxit3D8wbv-AcJ_7Z__w/featured Theme music provided by: Dave DeWhitt
The 3rd Wetton lecture, 19th June 2018 delivered by Professor David W. Hogg, Center for Cosmology and Particle Physics, New York University In the last 20 years, the astronomical community has found thousands of planets around other stars, and we now know that many or even most stars in our Galaxy host planets. These planets have been found by making exceedingly precise measurements of stars. Some of the planets we find are extremely strange; most known planetary systems are very different from our own Solar System. Here we will look at how these measurements are made, and how planets are found in the data. The data analysis - the search for the planets in the mountains of data - involves cutting-edge ideas from data science and machine learning. These technologies are transforming our capabilities in astronomy.

It will be released on April 21st, and available exclusively to Record Store Day participating retailers worldwide. The record is pressed on 180 gram vinyl, and includes an 8 page full color booklet designed exclusively for this release. The album is remastered from the original tapes located at Abbey Road Studios in London, which is the same master that was used in the now out of print “Ultimate Collector's Edition” box set that compiled all the works of UK's 3 albums, along with rarities, live material and 5.1 versions across 18 discs. “I'm pleased to recognize the 40th Anniversary of this seminal album with this carefully remastered vinyl release. This is now a legacy recording, made even more significant with the recent passing of both Wetton and Holdsworth, that I hope will represent a benchmark for future musicians.” - Eddie Jobson The Music In October 1977 the new supergroup featuring Eddie Jobson, Bill Bruford, John Wetton and Allan Holdsworth entered the rehearsal room, each armed with a panoply of musical ideas. Each song, theme, part or riff was logged in, like a jigsaw piece, and so the organizing and arranging of the individual pieces began. External expectations were high, not just for what these four individual innovators might create together, but because Trident Studios in Soho was already booked to record the results of their highly anticipated collaboration. The music of UK would be developed over several weeks. Wetton would reintroduce “Thirty Years,” a song first tried out with the Wakeman trio; Bruford brought in some harmonic, but mostly rhythmic ideas. Holdsworth's contributions revolved around his distinctive chord voicings, forming the foundation of such tracks as “Nevermore” and “Mental Medication.” Meanwhile, Jobson - the more formal composer of the group - brought in pages of musical notation that included the entire “In The Dead of Night” suite, minus vocal melody lines, but including “By The Light of Day” and the Zappa-influenced “Presto Vivace,” along with a complete version of “Alaska,” the verse of “Time To Kill” and half of “Nevermore.” The myriad musical ideas were painstakingly stitched together, mainly by Bruford and Jobson, but it would be Wetton's melodic and lyrical sense that would ultimately glue the disparate stylings into something resembling cohesive songs. Notwithstanding the considerable stylistic contributions of Holdsworth and Bruford, with a full sixty percent of the new album material emanating from Jobson's compositions, and with the addition of Wetton's vocal melodies and lyrics, the first UK album truly marked an auspicious beg...

John Wetton was best known as the lead singer and bassist for the supergroup Asia, and was also known for stints in King Crimson, U.K and Uriah Heep.In 1982 Asia's debut album was a surprise hit for Geffen Records, and introduced a leaner form of progressive rock that appealed to the masses. Success came with the usual challenges, and the group soon splintered like many prog rock bands, with various incarnations of the band in existence through 2006.It was in 2006 that the original lineup of Wetton, Steve Howe, Carl Palmer and Geoff Downes were finally able to reunite for a tour and subsequently recorded and released three new albums from 2008-2012, more than the two during thier first run.By the time of this interview Steve Howe had left the band and was replaced by Sam Coulson. John passed away on January 31, 2017.
For Episode 5 we meet Hilary Davan Wetton, Artistic Director and Principal Conductor of the City of London Choir, as well as music from Offenbach, Haydn, Vaughan Williams and Tchaikovsky.
We feature singer/bassist John Wetton on this "special tribute" Sittin' In With The CAT show. John's handprint can be found on numerous bands from the early 1970's right up to his passing in January of 2017. Widely known for his work with Asia, King Crimson, U.K and Roxy Music, his singing and bass playing was among the best in progressive rock music history. In this tribute show, award-winning program director Ray White interviewed John in January 2009 after release of Asia's Phoenix album. That album was the first released by the original Asia members since 1983. John shares insights regarding the reunion of the band and details of his other music career highlights. We'll also include much more from this legendary British musician. For additional information about our show, visit http://www.classicartiststoday.com
