new mex-whazzup? I don't know I missed this thread. Talk about my favorite genre of music! Barclay James Harvest, Gong, Gentle Giant, Bo Hannson, Van Der Graaf Generator, Focus, King Crimson, Hawkwind, Soft Machine, Yes, and the list goes and goes and goes. Then there are the solo lp's from members of these groups and many others.

Thanks newmex!
Go to the links at the the beginning of the thread or the one Bryan Chandler just posted a few days ago. It's all his fault that I have a broader taste in music.
The KSU radio show good to hear about it. I taped some of the broadcasts but many of my tapes were destroyed. There was a something on the tape that I would like to know more about but I do not know who did it. A black female with jazz background spoken poetry that was totally electric and so laid back at the same time. I 've got no clue as to who but its the only place and time I've heard it was the Fresh Air broadcast from KSU but I still wonder. So much so cool, nobody has playlists or tapes? Or do they?
I wonder if anyone misinterprets the term "progressive" music as far as this program...I have no problem with it...and back then, it was never conceived as what right wing folks consider "progressive" today in politics...in fact, what conservative would have a grasp on this? The bumper music they play on their shows says no....

NewMex is right. Prog Rock for me really blossomed around 1973 as Pink Floyd, Yes, ELP, Procol Harum, Jethro Tull, Moody Blues, and other bands were amongst my favorite bands, progressive or otherwise. And there were SO many others I was just discovering; groups like Gentle Giant, Focus, Barclay James Harvest, etc., etc. I frequented many a record store back then and personally knew several store owners when I lived in the Denver metro area. Those bands AFAIK were always considered European Progressive, in the stores they were classified as just that, having their own bin with divider cards clearly marked that way.
