Earth and Fire video

2006-02-10 by Daniel Miso

Check out the dichotomy which was Earth and Fire (Dutch prog band with 
all the trappings; Mellotron, Hammond, Les Paul black beauty etc.); yet 
who released top 40 ditties between prog albums in the early to mid 
70's). Jerney Kaagman looking quite Abba-ish here...

This tune was one of their hits...but it has lidless tron  (for on the 
fly adjustments, quick tape rack changes?)

What happened to "Wind?" I can only assume he was broke too many times to continue. Or perhaps he "...cried Mary" one to many times and he was tossed from the band.

OK....Daniel.....  That really SUCKED.
The wah-wah pedal fit in nicely with the Genesis / ABBA stuff didn't 
it?
I'm happy that you sent this... Kind of like I was happy after seeing 
Eraserhead.

I preferred them when Wind was in the band.

Wind was a bit of an arse, so he had to go...
