    Who Are The 'Big 4' Of Prog Rock?

    Thanks for the reply.... I would try Stand Up and Benefit ....wonderful blues based rock and folk. They were before his prog and gaelic/folk eras.....though I personally love the later rock folk mixture on lps like Minstrel in the Gallery and Songs From the Woods. "Nothing To Say' ....from...

    Favorite progressive rock bands?

    One of my favorite obscure symph prog tracks .... a bit like Moody Blues meets Genesis... loved these guys ....sadly they never caught on with the overall prog crowd. 'Alanderie' by Fantasy (1974)

    Who Are The 'Big 4' Of Prog Rock?

    I went and looked again at your 20 band list .....a remarkable undertaking....I could probably tell you who I was listening to then but not 20 artists worth each year. I had no idea you were such a big Neil Young fan for many years. He has always been a favorite for me. My wife and I saw him...

    The BEATLES (Official Thread)

    Hmmm....I havent played any Beatles for a long time.....maybe spin Revolver later today. *I'm really curious what is your favorite Beatles lp....I like Rubber Soul, Revolver, Pepper, White , and Abbey Road is probably my favorite though that can change at times.

    Obscure Heavy Psych/Heavy Rock/Proto-Metal

    Probably posted this before here but...an interesting obscure prog band and track.... there are so many great obscure bands like this that deserve to be heard who for whatever reason never became household names. Peter Brown and Piblokto (Brown wrote lyrics and music with Bruce in several...

    Who Are The 'Big 4' Of Prog Rock?

    Thanks for that post on prog. I enjoyed it and I wish more people here would really get into what they think with longer posts about music. Now for some comments which I hope will not offend anyone here. As I said before it's always has seemed to be be about the 'big 6 of prog' on prog web...

    Who Are The 'Big 4' Of Prog Rock?

    The first Floyd I actually owned was Meddle...my college room mate and I would 'smoke' and listen to it in 1971. We went back and discovered Ummagumma ,Atom Heart Mother, and Piper and Saucerful. I have played Meddle and Dark Side the most, but I think Wish is their best overall as a listening...

    Review The Who- The Who Sell Out (1967) *** 1/2

    Very good album.....3.5 stars just for I Can See For Miles, but one can hear the melodies and structure that leads into Tommy. If you are a Who fan or a rock fan this needs to be in your collection. :grinthumb

    Your Favourite "Classic Prog" Album

    Speaking on Floyd......I play Meddle more than any other lp by them....probably due to my college days with it. I also like the earlier psych ones as well. I think Dark Side and Wish You Were Here are their best lps....always thought THe Wall would have been a better single lp. There are too...

    Your Favourite "Classic Prog" Album

    Missed this thread somehow but I went with King Crimson...In The COurt Of the CRimson King....an early one and since that time my favorite. I have all the lps on the list and like them all but many think the first KC lp might have started the prog album area in earnest even though there were...

    2. Meadows (1973) Can't help but feel uncertain, knowing which way to turn They want to raise the curtain and you're holdin' the words to learn I'm out here in the meadow, part of an old stone wall Stand here because you said so, waitin' around to fall
