Progressive talk


I'm into the german krautrock and some people call it german progressive rock. Is there any difference or these are just two common things.
Any input from progressive and krautrock addicts is appreciated.

Yes,the doctor told me to increase my riffage intake and to keep it steady.Who am I to argue with a professional.It's helped to keep things running smoothly ,although I have broken a few air guitars during intake. Speaking of well informed...Duanegoosen is the grandaddy of all things good and pure when it comes to the tunes! Thanks for turning me on to so much excellent music through the years droog.Duanegoosen,have you got any new "Progressive Music" recommendations that might have the endorphin releasing effects that I have come to expect from a goosen selection?I'm listening to Pataphoinie (french) as I(californian) type this.This is a disc that has been a pleasant surprise.I actually didnt think much of it at first,but with careful listening I've noticed similarities to Kollectiv and Fermata, maybe a little Tretioriga Kriget.It's real good. Hey Marakanetz,I've noticed elsewhere that your'e a Praxis fan.Me too.Got to see 'em at Slim's in S.F.... Metatron is probably my favorite,alternating with Transmutation.It's going to be tough for Buckethead to match the excellence of that Praxis stuff.He's still young and full of potential.What a flamethrower guitarst that guy is.I like Buckethead's discs Giant Robot (on NTT,not the Japanese giant robot)and the Day of the Robot(w/ Bill Laswell!)and Colma(if there are ladies present)His "I love my parents" themes are always great,appearing on several discs.
The Tzadik label has a bunch of great looking releases out also.I think I'm going to have to spend some money there,unless a trip to Amoeba Music should materialize....eh,mr.goosen?
A few of my favs are: Porcupine Tree, Camel, Eloy, Tull, Gentle Giant, Ashra, Barclay James Harvest, T. Dream, Flower Kings, Steve Hackett, Sonus Umbra, P. Floyd, Can, Mr. Quimby's Beard, Steve Hillage(more psych I suppose), Solaris. I know I left a lot out, can't remember, getting old. Of course I listen to other types of music also.
Malcolm Mooney and Damo Suzuki will be performing at Knittingfactory tomorrow -- no $hit. Getting the ticket is a whole different issue.
Anyone heard Damo Suzuki's P.R.O.M.I.S.E. mega collection?
Share the experience. Is it all cool there?
Anybody check out the Neu! reissues? All three are really good. Elements of Kraftwerk but actually sounding more like Can. Excellent.
