11) VEGA were one of several Andalusian and Spanish bands who flourished in the mid- to late seventies by making music that blended flamenco, folk and jazz at times with English progressive tendencies, often resulting in a colorful and rich fusion sound. Acts like TRIANA, CAI, MEZQUITA and AZAHAR would establish themselves as the preeminent players on these scenes, along with the more contemporary counterparts like LOS CANARIOS and ALAMEDA.
12) VEGA was a German hip-hop duo that released the single Ich chille in 1999.
In this vein VEGA combined Andalusian instrumentation (and sometimes traditional arrangements) with a less well-defined progressive bent, emphasizing instead a heavy flamenco influence and the showcased guitar work of band leader Tómas Vega. Vega had been a member of the earlier Spanish band LOS GRIMMS, and would also, along with bandmate Jorge Pardo, lend his name to a couple DOLORES (Pedro Ruy Blas) records in the same timeframe.
The group released three albums in three years, each accompanied by one single. The first two are heavily imbued with flamenco-driven fusion compositions, while the final release 'Sol de Oscuridad' seemed to be more intended as an attempt at commercial success with vocals and repetitive, less original arrangements. The band was already in its death throes by the time the third album released.
VEGA were a minor player in an ample line of Spanish and Andalusian prog bands of the seventies and eighties. While their contributions don't generally rank among the greatest acts of that segment, they are worthy of recognition and inclusion in these ProgAcrhives.

13) VEGA is a three-piece heavy stoner rock band hailing from the 'VEGA' star. They traveled the interstellar star-ways of the multiverse in their dark matter-fueled VEGA-van, intent on spreading their riff to passing planets. Lights years into their journey they happened upon a planet that caught their attention: this planet was unlike any of the other desolate and in some cases, down right primitive planets they had visited since they started their galactic tour. This planet was Earth and they found it akin to their homeland; such as it was cut from the same great cosmic cake as VEGA. It had majestic mountains, vast oceans, extreme deserts, beautiful flowered plains, and industrialized modern cities. All Earth's inhabitants, from intelligent lifeforms to basic single-celled organisms, were identical to VEGA-ns and lived indistinguishable lifestyles and had similar habits to the people of their home-star. Earth even had music: just like VEGA. VEGA decided to stay on this strangely familiar, yet completely foreign sister-planet and lay down their sweet-star riffs as ambassadors to their beloved VEGA.

Vega Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Aber hier fing alles an, das ist, was sie sagen
Sie ist so bitter und gefährlich
Diese Stadt hier ist der Mittelpunkt der Erde
Jeder Mann hier jagt den Pfennig und Dope
Manchmal bangen Pistolen
Seit dem Jahr, in dem sie Kennedy holten
Und ich rolle mit dem Bembel Richtung Oberrad
Solang' die Engel noch Motorrad fahren
Diese Stadt hier ist schwarz-weiß
Diese Stadt hier ist Hartreim, arm-reich
Diese Stadt hier ist ein Kriegsgebiet
Dafür lieb' ich sie
Denn es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Ganz egal, was sie euch sagen, mein Freund
Es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Ganz egal, was sie euch sagen, mein Freund
Es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Diese Stadt ist keine Jungfrau, keine Rose, keine Ballerina
Diese Stadt hier ist der Ursprung aller alten Lieder
Hier stehen Huren auf der Straße
Diese Stadt ist der Turmbau zu Babel
Jeder Asi hier ist gegen den Strom
Deshalb reden wir so
Wo die Häuser an den Wolken kratzen, drehen sie Millionen
Bis sie dich jagen und die Straße brennt
Doch ich weiß, dass du nicht fällst
Solang' die Fahne mit dem Adler hängt
Diese Stadt ist nicht einfach
Diese Stadt hier ist Eintracht, sie bleibt Macht
Diese Stadt hier ist ein Kriegsgebiet
Dafür lieb' ich sie
Denn es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Ganz egal, was sie euch sagen, mein Freund
Es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Ganz egal, was sie euch sagen, mein Freund
Es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Jede Zeile, die ich schreibe, heißt, ich bleibe hier
Jeder Stein in dieser Stadt hier ist ein Teil von mir
Und sie fragen sich, wie weit ich geh'
Ich gehe mit Gott und ich zweifel' nie an seinem Weg
Denn ich war draußen mit dir
Danach drauf, dann im Rausch, danach dauernd verwirrt
Diese Stadt hier ist ein Kriegsgebiet
Dafür lieb' ich sie
Denn es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Ganz egal, was sie euch sagen, mein Freund
Es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Es ist Winter in Frankfurt
Ganz egal, was sie euch sagen, mein Freund
Es ist Winter in Frankfurt
In Vega's song Winter in Frankfurt, he portrays his love-hate relationship with his city, Frankfurt. The song begins with the description of the city, which is not beautiful, elegant, nor old but is the center of the world, bitter, and dangerous. The city is full of people chasing money and drugs, where guns sometimes go off. The mention of Kennedy's assassination is used to mark the turning point in the city's history. Vega also talks about rolling with the "Bembel Richtung Oberrad," indicating his familiarity with the city's geography.
The song's chorus repeats the phrase "It's winter in Frankfurt" as if to signify the dreary atmosphere that prevails in the city. The second verse delves deeper into the harsh reality of the city, where prostitution is rampant. The city is said to be the Tower of Babel, a symbol of confusion and chaos. Vega talks about the struggle of living in the city, where everyone seems to go against the tide, and words are spoken harshly.
The song ends with Vega's declaration of his love for Frankfurt, stating that every line he writes and every stone in the city is a part of him. He also mentions his struggles with addiction and how he was constantly confused but somehow managed to stay grounded in the city.
Overall, the song reflects the struggles of life in a city that may not be beautiful but holds a special place in the artist's heart.
