| | Van Der Graaf Generator Vital: Van Der Graaf Live CD - Import Van Der Graaf Generator Discography of CDs
Originally released as a double LP, this eight-song live album makes a perfect 75-minute CD. The lineup (uncredited) was Peter Hammill on vocals, guitars, and keyboards; Nic Potter on bass; Dave Jackson on saxes and keyboards; Guy Evans on drums; and Graham Smith on violin, keyboards, and vocals. The recording quality is surprisingly good, with a close, intimate sound, which is the only way one could properly capture this band live and not have the results come out like a bunch of noise. As a title, "Vital" also accurately describes the disc, for the group presents the raw, up-close, in-your-face approach that made Van Der Graaf Generator favorites of the punk bands despite the group's prog rock origins -- between Hammill's loud, raspy vocals and his crunchy overamplified guitar, "Still Life," "Door," and "Pioneers Over C" all sound almost like punk band performances, and the medley of "A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers/The Sleepwalkers" isn't much different despite the presence of a violin in there. ~ Bruce Eder

$9.59 Beautifully crafted Acoustic Lyrical songs that take you on a journey into your deepest self and heal your heart.This is real Soul music.An album of modern spiritual classics.Review by KaviIf you are one of the new people trying to wake up in this world, if you see just a glimpse through the illusion, and if you long to live life more through your heart than your mind, then I guarantee, this CD will be a very valuable friend. When I made ‘The Divine Inside’ I had no idea I was going to go so deep. The sleeve notes on the CD tell the story of how it happened, but it’s thanks to my partner and her book ‘How to find God in Everything’ that I created this. It is an intimate album. It is your true voice calling you home to a place where Love, Truth, Beauty, Compassion and Peace are the priorities in life. It is a CD that is fitting for the strange times we live in. There is so much ...
