Ars Pro Vita "Block 24 First Floor" at 18 min long, which about one third is their "take" or "version" of Gorecki's "Third Symphony"
I'm not sure what the whole piece is about, but I did hear the...
I'm looking for a VHS copy (it's not available on DVD) of the Bill Graham Biography from A&E back in 2002.
And I'm talking about the concert promoter not the evangelist of course.
Thank you....
Hello
Here are the last of my personal recordings on mini disc that I can no longer play or use
so they're available to anyone who's interested for the cost of postage.
Just PM me with any...
I totally agree with Celeste and more than by a landslide.
How do you spell Celeste? .... M E L L O T R O N
Speaking of Narada I would definitely recommend the Warriors Live in Palo Alto from 1983
Probably 25% vocals which are actually quite good and 75% seventies jazz rock fusion.
Smokin' hot music all...
I was at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle for the show on April 3 1977 and it was very memorable because when the smoke started to clear at the end of "Supper's Ready" several strippers appeared on...
Has anyone ever noticed that the song that ends the "Visions" album "On The Way Home To Earth" ends the "same way" as the song "This Is Where I Came In" by Richard Harris?
During the sustained...
Hi
I'm looking to replace my Grobschnitt Live in Hagen 2012 w. orchestra cdr/tape which was lost when my back up Hard Drive failed.
I did find one place on the net to purchase the digital copy...
My memories of shopping for Prog Rock in the early seventies were that all the British and anglo - prog rock was just mixed in the racks in the "Rock" section.
But all the European (mostly) prog was...
Mike Rutherford "Smallcreep's Day"
Pulsar "Strands of the Future"
Todd Rundgren "The Ikon"
David Sancious "Transformation"
I saw Dylan on that tour and I didn't even know it was "All Along the Watchtower" until I got home and listened to my recording.
OK, a bit of exaggeration there but I did like his show overall... it...
I have recorded over a hundred shows at baja prog between 2000 - 2014. Some are on Mini Disc, some are on cassette, and some are on CD.
If there are any shows you're looking for please send me a PM...
Hi
I recently found an interview I conducted with master bassist Tony Levin for a college radio station in Vancouver BC. This was done in advance of the upcoming Todd Rundgren tour featuring Tony...
Does anyone want a Michel Ettori "Higher Life" CD ? Also featured are Patrick Gautheir on keyboards and Didier Batard on bass.
All I'm asking for is the cost of shipping which varies depending on...
Thank you for this video. I can't imagine how much thought and effort went into the mixing and matching and editing of those other singers into these songs. Well done! I don't think I've seen this...
The frustrating thing about the Chicago 1973 concert is that the song "Let Us Go Into The House Of The Lord" which IMHO has the best soloing - first Santana then McLaughlin then both together is the...
While on vacation in Germany in 1981 my wife and I saw Steve Hackett in Essen. After the show we were invited backstage and spent the better part of an hour sitting down with Steve. He mentioned...
I was excited to see them at Baja Prog but unfortunately they (probably) didn't rehearse enough and I definitely remember them stopping to figure out what they were doing at least once. I did record...
I remember in 1980 when Gary Numan played in Vancouver and before the show I had no idea that Cedric was his drummer. After the show I asked a roadie on stage if I could speak to Cedric about his...
No one has mentioned that "Man Of Our Times" and "Alone Tonight" could easily be on "Smallcreep's Day" ... just listen to that guitar work - could be outakes from "Smallcreep's Day" that he let...
If you have a story and want to tell it yourself on the show please PM me so we can arrange a time to talk and record it.
Hi Everyone
I have started my new series on Baja Prog and the first show is now available on mixcloud.com/magmashark. For these shows I am playing music from the bands that played and telling...
If you're looking for full blown classic symphonic prog then the new Cast "Vigesimus" fits the bill. My personal favorite in this vein is the Noisy Diner's "the Princess of the Allen Keys' which has...
Recalls Whitaker: "Peter came to the Happy the Man rehearsal warehouse in, I believe, the Arlington area (on the Virginia side of Washington D.C.) on June 26th, 1976. I remember distinctly because it...
Hi everyone
I am starting a new segment on my progressive rock radio show called "StoryTellers".
My idea is to either read out a listener's personal story regarding prog rock - ie. your...
Hi Everyone
I recently spoke with Stanley Whitaker about his new song "Brilliant Madness" and other material he's working on for an upcoming solo project. I also talked with Tim Morse about...
Since this thread has expanded beyond prog I would say ZZ Top Capitol Theatre 1980 ... after this I can't listen to any other recordings studio or live from them.
Is there a better recording of...
Check out the interview I did with Frank Wyatt a month or so ago for my radio show at ...
I was cleaning out an old hard drive and came across a file called "Surya live with Didier Lockwood 1978" and it was 3 cd's. Some songs repeat (different sets or nights?)
but it's definitely Didier...
Hey everyone
Check out the exclusive interview I did with Frank Wyatt on my live on air progressive rock radio show and podcast on mixcloud.
Franks talks about Happy the Man, his other projects...
I remember seeing Discus at Baja Prog in 2001 and they played "Anne" before it was released and it blew me away. They had a fantastic young drummer that I thought played in the style of Narada...
when it comes to Zappa I suggest listening to the live boot from Santa Monica Dec 11 1980 (2nd set) then listen to the same guitar solos on his "Shut Up And Play Yer Guitar" series.... the boot...
I did come across a reissue recently (released feb 17 2020 according to a bootleg russian site) that has 1 bonus track "Like a Rainbow" (8:26). I've never seen or heard that track before.... so I'm...
Years ago at Baja Prog I spoke to "sorry, can't remember his name" from Musea Records. He told me there never was a Volume 1 and that the CD was called Volume 2 alluding to the fact it was a second...
I recently came across a box of mini discs from my days of recording shows. Between using the sony walkman pro and then an ederol, for several years in between I used a mini disc recorder. It broke...
Over time I've noticed a lot of prog bands using climate change as their theme for albums. I'm thinking of Edisons Children, United Progressive Fraternity, Romantechs (UPF side project) and DarWin...
First of all, Zess is a magnificent piece of incredibly beautiful music. I'm fairly certain that most fans who pick this CD up have all heard the various live versions from back around 1979 to 1983...
It didn't occur to me at the time the title sounded weird...
but now I am questioning it as well...
not sure if I'm able to change the title of the thread
at this time.
Sorry for the confusion.
New Canadian band Pareidolon have released a 2 song EP featuring a great cover of the Camel song "Lunar Sea". You can hear it and an interview with the leader of the band Lochlan Tocher exclusively...
I can't add anything more to how great 1974 was for prog rock... combine with 1973 and you're looking at the top of the mountain. I've been spotlighting each year in prog rock on my live on air...
I got ZZ Top - live at the capitol theatre passaic NJ 1980 May 4 ... and have never listened to any of their studio tracks since.
This probably won't go over well, but I'm sure I like Nektar's...
For those of you that have heard the new Eris Pluvia CD "Tales From Another Time" does anyone else hear Genesis "Dance On A Volcano" in the song "Lost In The Sands Of Time"? It can be heard on...
Even though I heard some early prog like yes - roundabout, elp - lucky man, pink floyd - careful with that axe eugene I can't say I knew it was progressive rock. Then one night, listening to FM...
yes, I understand... for me that record store was cellophane square in bellingham WA and another (can't recall the name) in seattle, and in vancouver at yellow submarine records and ernie's hot wax. ...
I think my post has gone way off track of what I was intending. It somehow morphed into just a list of great prog rock released in 1978. I guess that's the perspective I spoke about... hindsight...
I enjoy your posts (as well as MT and others) but I think my idea for the post somehow got corrupted really fast. I wanted my original post to be about 1978 at the time, not in retrospect.
A...
I don't disagree with the emergence of great progressive bands however I have to say that at that time in 1978 without the internet, without specific prog rock publications and without any radio most...
Your list looks pretty good to me as well ... I will be playing 3 of those bands on my show.
My personal contention is that 1978 was the end of seventies progressive rock as we knew it. Or at least a clear sign that the original classic progressive rock scene would be forever changed. Much...
thank you Paulrus .... that is exactly what I'm doing with my show. thank you for recognizing that. It's my personal perspective and my journey through prog rock over the years. that's all ......
... for me, classic 70's prog almost ended abruptly in 1978.. which I consider the worst year, After that, most bands either disbanded or changed direction. Sure, things changed as you said around...
[QUOTE=MYSTERIOUS TRAVELLER;881942]cool idea... for me, 1969 would have to include pieces from the following albums of progressive Rock music pioneers
... well, I think I got 4 of them in the...
With the year 2019 being the 50th anniversary of prog rock - OK, that's if we're using King Crimson "In The Court Of The Crimson King" as our starting point, which many people would either agree with...
I always appreciate when a prog rock artist can bridge the gap to a wider audience. With this acoustic covers release Stanley Whitaker takes listeners from Peter Gabriel and Genesis to James Taylor...
Please join me for The Progressive Rock Show - music and interview with Alan White currently podcast on mixcloud. On July 20th Yes played Philadelphia with special guest Patrick Moraz and I spoke to...
I hope it's an archive recording from 1979 or 1980 (but 1981 or 1982 will do) but I'm not sure I would want a new recording by the new band. Sounds bad, but for this tune the passion, energy and...
Last summer I saw Saga at Cannafest in Grand Forks BC and they sounded as fresh as they did back in the early eighties. Are they prog? or just proggy? I leave that to each individual. I...
I'm definitely looking forward to this release! I had the great fortune to interview Stanley for my radio show last year and for those interested, it is podcast here:
lots of talk and great music....
I finally found an old tape of "Incredible Tour" and it was filled out with other live Mr Sirius - "Blue Wind" "Fire" "Lady Madonna" "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" "Super Joker" and at least 4 other...
