Getting it on with Prog


Looks like there has not been a STEADY progressive rock thread here since 2006.

If you refrain from trolling me, I'm up for posting mini (one or two sentence) "reviews" of lps likely some of you are not aware of.

You're welcome to add your own reviews, with one stipulation:
I realize this is an audio forum ,so please refrain from the obvious which has been done to death  (like Genesis,Yes,Focus...)

And I don't want to hear no bloody  Porcupine Tree , Mars Volta,Dream Theater ,Tool, or bleeding Steven Wilson.
sammmmmmy
Rare Bird fanatic here, I enjoy the guitar oriented stuff too, Steve Gould criminally underappreciated vocalist, right up there with Greg Lake, John Wetton etc. He did an album with Dave Greenslade 'Cactus Choir' and for some unknown reason changed his vocal style, it mostly sux.

Also have Graham Fields solo album 'Fields' with Andy McCullogh on drums, it's pretty good but doesn't reach the heights of the Bird.

Methinks keyboardist Dave Kaffenetti from Rare Bird was the drummer in Spinal Tap, piece of trivia.
My prog interest in brewed by Rush and Marillion so I'm not as prog steeped as many others who have posted, but what bothers me most about this thread is how the OP feels compelled to judge anyone's contribution, as if he's the prog wizard to whom people are making offerings.

Not to mention something like this:
"Don't call anyone "dude".
Its disrespectful and low talk."
Dude is as common in the current vernacular as any other slang term; and as Audiogon forum is a casual language vehicle, there's nothing wrong with it. Get over your sensibilities, dude.

@richmon and @mapman were right - there are other forums for this depth of prog, especially if you're having a spitting context about who's more prog.
Thanks for all the recommendations guys. I just picked up a CD copy of Sindelfigen, Odgipig. The seller probably marveled that anyone would actually buy it!

Congrats!

Never mind selling , I am not even sure how you pronounce it!
Lol
Ha, yeah haven't figured it out myself. I listened to it on utube and was quite impressed. I'm a Genesis fan and it had a definite Genesis influence in my mind.
