symphonic rock and supertramp?

hello,

you al know the term symphonic rock, including bands as Yes, Pink Floyd, Marillion, King Crimson, Dream Theater,... Am I right?

But last I visited a website where they said that Supertramp also stands for symphonic rock. Do you think you can Supertramp call a symphonic rockband, and what about the Dire Straits? Both make the same sound.

Are there other bands who you think you can call symphonic?

They call them progressive, and some of thier early albums I suppose are progressive, but certainly not to the degree of Yes, ELP ect. ect.

ELP and Genesis in the early 70's.

I still stick to my there are only two genres of music theory. Good and Bad.

Hehe.

good call. no bad pun intended. repeat.

No but I can quite easily call them a load of old pony.

old pony? i like it!

You like Supertramp?

never heard them. but the phrase "old pony" i do like.

Ah I see, are you aware of it's connotations?

no. but i like it anyway. but feel free to explain it if the need arises.

I think I'll leave you in your usual state of ignorance if it's all the same. Maybe someone else could explain it to you, someone who CARES!!!

eh. doesn't really matter either way. i think i'll make a new meaning for it.
