I'm really sorry but I was happier with the Earth, Wind & Fire than I was with the recording of this show.  It just doesn't work for me   Embarrassed

So was it the quality of the recording? or the show itself?
The plagiarism issue aside, there were some very enjoyable moments ... interspersed with a whold lot of "I wish they'd stop talking in a foreign language and get back to playing music" moments.

Oh I wasn't talking about the recording quality, Bob...  Nope, I'm afraid the music does almost next to nothing for me.  In fact, if forced, I'd go so far as to say i actively disliked a fair bit of it...!

The Earth Wind & Fire tune Bob is thinking of is called "Fantasy" which I think kind of sits rather well with the fantasitical Arthurian legends

Now you've piqued my curiosity ... Are you implying that they had permission to use the tune? It would seem to me that the song would be credited to more than "Johnny Logan" if so ...  Seems to be a very blatant case of plagiarism otherwise.

I'm quite enjoying the recording, and surprised by its quality. I wish I'd been there. Maybe next time.

Excalibur III out in November I see.

I don't think it should be credited to Johnny Logan anyway. He sang it but surely Alan Simon and James Wood wrote it (or Maurice White, depending on how you look at it).

Yes, you're right. Now that you mention it, that page I linked to is probably showing the performers of each song rather than the writers.
