I LOVE Spacehog's "In The Meantime". That's a song I could play over and over.

Whatever gave you the idea that Reef would save rock? Save it from the dangers of originality and talent?

Reef = didn't get it... singer's voice was like grinding teeth on that track.

biggrin Kool choices!!!!

It's funny, I thought the same about the group Jellyfish, especially since they came out in the middle of all that "grunge" at the time. Unfortunately that was the thing that probably did them in---probably the wrong time for a group influenced by Nick Drake, various Jazz artists, and groups like Queen....

Yes he sings hard and raw but I thought that was part of their charm.

And Spacehog listen to that voice and the arrangment of that music
I didn't hear anyone that sounded like them at the time. Kind of like a young Queen. But to each their own.
