Bet's/ Kismet/ Wootton/ Change of H's - all of which I love ;D I can't really knock a point off any of these!! Ok BB because it's too obvious!!

Listening to Confessional on the way to work and I just sort of came over all confessional ! Agree with Non Rabbit on BB so there we are are.. Love the organ sound at the beginning. Reminds me of going to Sunday School ( Chapel ) as a kid. Welsh Baptist see. ( not these days)

Play the damn game already! Wootton passed to the higher class, get with it. Pay attention. Thick as a Brick 2, maybe? Regards Don't make me laugh. -the mob in Wootton too many edits

I feel the same way about Confessional as i do about Kismet....EXCELLENT song...but size matters----it's too short! If Confessional thru end was one song...it would be the equal of or better than 'Change of Horses'.

That's a good point Steel. That passage through to the end is as good as almost anything Tull ( is that a bit over the top? )
Cheers

If Confessional thru end was one song...it would be the equal of or better than 'Change of Horses'. And it's even better in concert with much more power than on the recording. Pure Tull.

Sorry for the tactical voting but just think Confessional is the best of whats left. Oneconfessionalduck No need to be sorry about tactical voting Mr Duck - it's all part of the fun. A good few years ago I worked in the City of London in a building that housed insurance and banking concerns. Every morning, as part of our duties before the madding crowd decended into the building, we had to get the place ready for the hoards of city types. I'll never forget the sight of twenty so-called intelligent types watching the CNN channel and laughing at the sight of a disaster in a far off place on the planet knowing full well that other peoples misfortune, and utimately death, meant that their saleries were safe and profits were maintained for the companies concerned. Don't know exactly how it all worked, it was connected to re-insurance, but it certainly changed my ideals about how someone should behave towards a fellow human being. Banker Bets somehow connects with that chilling experience for me.

I lost my home a few years ago.....it cost 412 grand...after they took it away form me they auctioned it off for 155.5 grand...by that time they had: deducted it as a loss against taxes. collected mortgage insurance and it had been 'bundled' and sold between no les than 5...yes 5 banks in less than 4 years...each of whom 'took the loss' against taxable profits, collected mortgage insurance 9 which I paid for) and eventually got the money again via Bailouts.....Banker Bets, Banker Wins........I got evicted from my home....retunred to expensive, monthly rent and, beacuse home payments are un-taxed but rent is.....currently pay 36% of my income in tax,,,surely to help purchase pilot-less drones that drop bombs on innocent people.

Gloomy. A lot of despicable stuff going on by the banks. The money waste, the wrong people ruined, playing silly money games with people that are off the chart. Sorry to read about your circumstances, Bernie. Really is too sad what is going on concerning mortgages. It's reported about, but nothing is really being done. No wonder people curse...F...
