Prog-Watch

Episode 931 - Variety

A plethora of fantastic stuff has come across my digital desktop lately, so this week's Prog-Watch is a straight-up variety program full of awesome, mostly contemporary progressive rock! I've got great music from Combinator, Evership, Grombira, The Bedlam Furnaces, Numen, Robert Berry's 3.2, The Samurai of Prog, Lucifer Was, Head Spin, Porcupine Tree, and Glass Island!

Episode 930 - Shaking the Yes Family Tree (Remastered + Bonus Track)

I sometimes listen to old shows to see how I've progressed. In listening to this first edition in my “Shaking the Tree” series, I really liked the content, but feel the sound quality leaves a little to be desired. So I decided to remaster it, and in many cases used tracks from remastered versions of the albums. Since I had time, I also included a bonus track at the end. Sonically, the program is far superior to the program (although there was only so much I could do with the voice track). Anyway, without further ado, I present Shaking the Yes Family Tree (Remastered + Bonus Track), with music from The Buggles, Trevor Rabin, Refugee, Asia, Flash, Esquire, Levin-Torn-White, Badger, Bruford, and Chris Squire!

Episode 929 - The Musical World of Jon Lord - A Tribute

I hope you will join me on Prog-Watch this week when I will be exploring some of the vast Musical World of the late Jon Lord! We'll hear great music from Deep Purple and his solo career, of course, as well as some of his other work with Tony Ashton, Whitesnake, and George Harrison!

Episode 928 - Variety + Poets of the Fall on Progressive Discoveries

More astounding progressive sounds await on this week's Prog-Watch! We'll hear music from Bill Bruford, Nick Fletcher, Robert Berry's 3.2, The Prog Collective, Caravaggio, Andrew Ruoti, and Grombira! Plus, our friend and resident reviewer, Dr. Rob Fisher, will take us on a voyage of Progressive Discovery with the latest release by the Finnish band Poets of the Fall!

Join Rob Fisher, Magnus Moar and Big Tony on Prog-Watch this week for a look at some of the greatest keyboard virtuosos to ever grace our favorite genre! Guess who made the program, based on the episode's cover art! Even if you can guess them all, you won't want to miss this one! It's a belter!
