:up Thanks for the great advise, Bob! I'm checking into everything that you listed.

Thanks! Great song! :up

I can't believe this album! I was given a copy by my cousin and I haven't stopped playing it since last Friday night. But not at school and when I'm doing my homework. :horns:)

Wow! This stuff is pretty dope! Are there any decent sound systems available for under $5000? Just asking.:)

Ok, but trance and hip hop is the music I'm trying to get away from! :D

Huh? :huh

:up Thanks for the link. Henry Cow seem too complicated for me right now. But as you said, I've got plenty of time to checkout all these different prog groups.

I get it now! Thanks for the info. I looked up Henry Cow on Wiki and they look like they were very radical.

Huh? :huh

But that's the point! :)

Let It Bleed...Naked!! ;)

I never said that she always bought me new CDs.;) And thanks for the great idea for streaming Youtube! :up

My Mom's been getting me a couple of CDs a month. She asked me to wait for the Octopus album until after Christmas because she has to buy gifts for other family members. That means she will get it...

Wow! This is amazing! I only really know who David Gilmour is, and not any of the others mentioned here, except for Roger Waters. This is very intriguing as Ginger Gilmour looks like an angel from a...

Wow! I didn't know any of this! I definitely would love to hear "Symphonic Hope" Thanks for the great info! :)

Oh, I hope the other members don't get mad if I start with Octopus. Fragile was the only Yes album that this guy left behind on cassette and I don't think I stopped thinking about it for days after...

Yeah! I've listened to the "classics' like Close to The Edge by Yes and A Trick of the Tail by Genesis. Awesome.

I never heard anything by Porcupine Tree. Do they sound like these older bands?

Oh, ok. My Mom had a boarder who took off years ago and left his cassettes and cassette player in our basement. I plugged in this old 'boom box' and put in cassettes by groups and people that I'd...

Thanks for the Support! :up But I have to say that your site name scares me a little bit. :lol

Actually, I just turned 15, but people my age are into hip hop and dance stuff. I kind of found prog by accident. I thought it was best thing ever!

Could someone explain why they didn't play on Endangered Species? This is weird!

Thanks! Everybody here has been really great with helping get hooked up with great prog music and I really appreciate it! :)

Opps! I really thought it was Gentile Giant! :oops I'm such a silly goy. Sorry everybody. :D

I seem to be reading a lot more about Gentle Giant these days but I don't know thing one about this group except that they were talented, relied on multi part vocal harmonies and were never really...

And I think that's why the song is so enchanting to me. Thanks for pointing that out. The Green Man for me. :)

I'm afraid I'll get some gruff with this post, but does anyone else enjoy Klaatu? I really dig their first album, but it started to go downhill after that, IMHO.

What a bummer! :(

Yikes! I thought it was Do Wah Diddy! :oops

Stormcock is no. 1 for me, but I'm tied as to the second best Roy Harper album. Flat, Baroque and Berserk, HQ, Valentine and The Green Man are in a dead heat for second.

Which one would you pick?

:upI loved how they could produce something as progressive as Blinded By The Light and something sublimely pop as You Angel You from Angel Station. This group deserves more love.

This may be a loose rip off of the Beatles' concept (which itself was a loose concept), but this music seems only superficially related as opposed to a group like Klaatu. Who I like, btw. :)

:upOne of my older brother's favorite albums. Magnificent! But then I thought all of Harper's albums would be as good as this. No way, Stormcock takes the cake followed by the Green Man released...

That's great news! I just ordered the Atkins colab album from Amazon two days ago. Can't wait!

I've been listening to Knopfler's solo albums Sailing to Philadelphia, Shangri-La and Get Lucky and think they're great! I actually like them better than any of the Dire Straits albums. What do you...

Wow! :up The black angels are awesome! Thanks again Yves and everybody! It would have taken me 20 years to find all these groups! :)

One of those questions about an essential album that doesn't come immediately to mind. Someone was playing the Up album on PA forum a little while ago. It's not the first PG album that ever comes to...

I just listened to Aftermath for the first time and it was really good! Perhaps because it's a bit more Beatle-ish then the other Stone's albums I've tried. I'll give December's Children a try also...

Wow! I think I just had my first flashback experience and the only drug I take is Tylenol! Thanks for more goodies. Prog psych is easier to get onto then I thought! :cool

Thanks G Bulldozer and Yves! I could listen to these songs all day!:cool

I almost forgot about Jacco! Another awesome song!! I will check him out ASAP!

Wowi didn't have time earlier to view these. They're terrific! Thanks! :horns

Everybody here seems so cool!:up

Wow! No respect for this older dude. Sad.

Thanks for the list. I'm more into pop psych, I guess, as I'm only 15. ;) The avatar I use is of one of my father's favorite albums, but it's a little over my head, I think. He says that I probably...

I've been listening to older psych rock like the Beatles MMT and Donavon's Sunshine Superman. Can anyone suggest modern prog or rock bands that are trippy and psychedelic? Thanks.:)

I've tried listening to both the 'Buttons' album and Beggar's Banquet that came out before and after Their Satanic Majesties, but I really can't get into them.

Am I alone in this? :huh

:up Agree.

Well, as much as I've been liking TSNR, I can't see the Stones or any other psych rock group of the era expanding on the music laid down here. Though, enjoyable to me, it was only possible for a...

And when you look at Keith, that's quite an accomplishment! LOL

I absolutely agree with you as the Stones took many keys from the Beatles such as jumping on the ballad band wagon after the Beatles (nee McCartney) released Yesterday as a single.

But the music...

How come the spelling for the 'headline' cannot be changed? What gives? I spelled imitation correctly! Admins, please fix this.

Yeah, ok, it's an imitation and a classic, I guess. :)
But the music on Their Satanic Majesties Request is not like anything found on Sgt. Pepper's.

Yeah, no surprises here. Though Jagger has been more explicit in his comments over the years, Keith Richards just refers to the album as either 'crap' or 'rubbish'. LOL

Their Satanic Majesties Request was dismissed by many in the sixties, including the Rolling Stones themselves, as a weak Sgt. Pepper's rip off. But I have been listening to this album for the last...

This 1+

This! LOL

As others stated, there is nothing else in the BB discography that's like Pet Sounds. Two solid and way less baroque studio albums that are worth checking out are Sunflower and Surf's UP.

Loved all of Knopfler's albums since Rag Picke'rs Dream. Shangri-La and Get Lucky are so good it's criminal!

Huh? Could not Ian have done the decent thing and credited Barre as a guest player on his solo albums. Colin Blunstone did the same after the Zombies broke up in the 60's and used Rod Argent as both...

I just gave Deserter's Songs a fresh spin and was more receptive to their lush string heavy pop. So, I guess I'll have to give The Light In You a shot. :)
