    Fans of '70s Prog Rock would be wise to listen to this great band's catalog. Don't let yourself believe the best music is all 40-50 years old.

    Just picked up English Boy Wonders (1997) - wow thank you guys! My first BBT! Instantly top shelf Brit prog!

    I used to teach Greg guitar in the early 90s, I wonder if he remembers me? I also engineered big big train at bournemouth venue Mr smiths early on in their career.

    Wonderful Interview. Hope to see them in East Rutherford.
    !! Hope another lockdown doesn't occur. Last time they tried to tour in the States, it was canceled 😞

    One of my top bands from UNDERFALL YARD to THE LIKES OF US - just superb brass violin guitars keyboards and NDV on drums - all great singers. But topics of interest and depth with amazing arrangements. And live seriously impressive. PS Grag bring back Maria Barbieri - mind blowing guitarist

    I really wanted to get to that Buffalo show but I just can`t get the time off. BBT have been a big big deal in my listening over the last few years. I`ve mentioned to Nick via ytube that it would be amazing if they could play in Canada ( Montreal or Toronto area ) Hopefully this may happen in the future. Good episode Pete. And I hope BBT have a great time on the Cruise

    One of my favorite bands since finding them a few years ago. Excited for the new album!
    I was also excited to hear they were coming to the states. But, disappointed that they won’t be coming to Chicago. Hopefully they will make it back soon

    I have BBT's new album on Pre-order and never hesitated to get it. BBT puts out quality music and Nick would never put his name on something that wasn't sub-awesome. Gregory talked about the direction of the band and I dig what I heard. I'm excited about the future of BBT. I am in unless and if Nick leaves the band. I'm Steve and that's the bottom line!

    For a band whose raison d'etre is so closely tied to classic progressive rock and the British lore and identity. Why choose an Italian lead singer with a fairly thick accent? With all due respect. 🤔

    • @seaoftranquilityprog
      @seaoftranquilityprog  7 місяців тому +3

      Well, when you hear the new album, you won't hear barely any Italian accent.

      He’s excellent on both the album and live - seriously worth actually listening to their output.
