.....don't think Bagpipe Music is a 'prog rock' artefact m'self....far too 
 
much humour for that. It's a piece of radical rock'n'roll. Some of it is a 
 
little naff and ponderous, and the work of a relatively immature poetic 
voice  
methinks - our Greatest Living Englishman soon gave up trying to reinvent 
WH  
Auden in favour of setting Auden's work to wicked music and developing  
further 
his own approach....but on the whole Bagpipe Music is an absolute  cracker 
and 
no mistake....I'm old enough to have bought it the first Saturday it  was 
on 
sale and still remember my best bud telling me I'd get bored with  
it...could 
still happen I suppose....
 
Got home from work today and my 13 year old daughter is playing  
guitar....'Veils of Colour' & 'Whatever Happened to Our Golden Birds' &  
'Your 
Ages'....now, how cool is that!? I'm bringing my babbies up proper  see....
 
peace & love
