    Stan Whitaker (Happy the Man) Prog cover release

    I have had the pleasure over the years to hear Stan live doing acoustic covers of various eclectic and Prog tunes, such as Supper’s Ready. Stan is finally releasing these on CD:

    Greeting you Nice People. A note as an up to speed for us. Some of you know Stanley will release a long waited acoustic voice, guitar CD of his favorite progressive cover songs. We are on track for release in four weeks. A gem indeed. Titled; "Under the Prog Tree Covers." My gratitude sits with you for your support of his gifts. Also in person at Upcoming Live Performances. Amazon, iTunes etc...

    If you want the address for a pre order I’ll provide. I deleted that part because I didn’t want this to appear as spam.

    By the way, here is a great article/interview with Stan. I believe he chats about these covers.

    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.

    This was a nice palette cleanser. I’ve been spending to many ear hours on heavy stuff lately

    Stan’s voice fits Gabriel’s style well but I liked the taab cover the most

    I hope all of Stan’s Fans and all the HTM fans get a chance to pick this up

    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 and Elton John with ease. The vocals and arrangements and recording are top shelf and this release should appeal to all music fans, not just progressive fans alone. I had the opportunity to inteview Stanley Whitaker recently on my live on air Progressive Rock Radio Show regarding this new Cd and you'll get to hear many of the songs from the CD as well as Stanley's insights to his choices of songs and what music means to him.
