Over- and undervaluations

Big public masses together in a kind of dead passion of mediocrity, and that this blanket of mediocrity is deeply offended by the Finnish `new´ composers Einojuhani Rautavaara, born in 1928, and also Aulis Sallinen who has been verified by his mediocreness. Stages are big, but I cannot feel the core of music, I´m sure, becouse there´s no any kind of spritual core for targeting.
Still I like Sibelius or Madetoja, but then ... Frankly, if I wanna hear as someone clatters all over the place, I ´ll take my old vinyl records.
One of my favorite old record category collection is progressive rock and fusio jazz, I was a digger, for example Pink Flod´s Atom Heart Mother, 1970, is good for `rattles and jangles´, then also all early wroks of King Crimson. Gong was one, listened.
Most of my records are old 70s. My real favorite was the band named Van Der Graaf Generator formed in 1967 in Manchester England. Not for common people, that´s why, very undervalued among the old prog bands I always thought.
The tide was almost magical, if we would beleaved Peter Hammill´s own words.
It was I remember that much of 'Pawn Hearts', by Van Der Graaf Generator, 1970, was written in my country cottage, which thereafter was haunted by a strangeness which clearly could be laid at the door of the damned fellow.
All right, I must go back to work. ...to day.
