Winter Prog Albums

[nearfest]

I've been enjoying some frosty prog... what are some of your faves for the season?

Jethro Tull- Stormwatch (SW 5.1 mix)
Vangelis- Antarctica

[battema]

+1 for Antarctica, also:

Johannes Schmoelling: White Out
Bjork: Vespertine

[flowerking]

Not albums but individual songs:

Jethro Tull - Fire at Midnight
White Willow - Snowswept and several from Ignis Fatuus
Strawbs - Autumn (really seems to be about winter, at least to me)

And not prog but a beautiful song
Sarah McLachlan - Song for a Winter's Night

[thedunno]

Everything released by Thule, especially the first two: Ultimo Thule and Natt

Not an album but it's wintertime & one of my favorite Doors' songs.

50 Words For Snow - Kate Bush

[Mascodagama]

Uzva - Tammela in January

[Sturgeon's Lawyer]

...and Then There Were Three has always had a "wintery" sound to me.

[Progbear]

Another one-off track, "Wintertime" by Kayak:

...and Then There Were Three has always had a "wintery" sound to me.

"Snowbound" obviously contributes to that, but I think Tony transitioning to mostly synths lends a "glacial" sound to the album. I believe this is the only record where he plays the Polymoog.

[Aquatarkus]

Ever since I moved away from birthplace in sunny southern California to places with long cold snowy winters, Klaus Schulze's Mirage has been a winter listening favorite. Progressive electornic at its finest.

For some reason I've always felt that Relayer had a wintry vibe. Maybe it was the time of year I first heard it (winter 1974/75), maybe the shades-of-white cover art, or maybe it's just the "crispness" of the original production...

[Steve983]

I tend to play all of my favourite albums over the winter when it's pretty awful outside.

These ones in particular have a wintry vibe for me, or sometimes just because I remember getting them during winter:

Genesis: Wind & Wuthering + And Then There Were Three
Yes: Relayer + Topo Oceans + Yesshows
Jon Anderson: Song Of Seven + Olias
Solstice: New Life
Steve Hackett: Voyage of The Acolyte
Rush: Hemispheres
UK: Debut + Danger Money
Steven Wilson: The Raven
Queen: A Night At The Opera + News Of The World
Black Sabbath: Mob Rules

[Czyszy]

The Residents-Eskimo

[Digital_Man]

...and Then There Were Three has always had a "wintery" sound to me.

W&W also (at least for me).

Uzva - Tammela in January

Excellent choice!!.. seems like quite a few records from that part of the globe have some winter in them.

[Teddy Vengeance]

Excellent choice!!.. seems like quite a few records from that part of the globe have some winter in them.

For me, this is one of the most heart-tugging tracks ever. Theme from a long ago blooming romance that began with a trek on snowy country trails.

[Batchman]

How about Art Bears - Winter Songs?
