One of the best progressive rock albums of all time; released in 1973. The album cover is a painting by Betty Swanwick called The Dream. The original painting did not feature a lawn mower; the band had Swanwick add it later as an allusion to the song "I Know What I Like."

see Pans people in all their glory dancing to Barry Blue in an edition from November 1973. This clip is different as Pans people dance as the credits roll instead of being in the main part of the show. Good nonetheless.

This was filmed on January 20, 1979 at the Sportsground in Sydney, Australia. "25 or 6 to 4" is a song written by Robert Lamm for the rock band Chicago. It was recorded for their second album Chicago (1970) with Peter Cetera on lead vocals. This recording features an electric guitar solo using a wah-wah pedal by Chicago guitarist Terry Kath. Lamm himself says that the title is "just a reference to the time of day," and that "the song is about writing a song. It`s not mystical."[2] The time of day in reference is 3:35 AM (or 3:34 AM), which would then be 25 (or 26) minutes to 4 AM.

Stories` second LP, About Us (1973), did well, primarily due to the inclusion of an afterthought, "Brother Louie." The song about a black girl and her white boyfriend had been a British hit for Hot Chocolate that year. Once issued as Stories` second single, it became a big hit reaching number one in the United States. This didn`t sit well with the group.
"All of a sudden," Ian Lloyd explained to Triad`s Russel Wiener, "we had a big hit with a song that did not represent our music and the direction we were trying to go in. I didn`t think it would affect me that much, but it did. Consequently, I decided that I had to remove myself from that, so that I could come back and show what I really can do."
