Prog-Watch 510 - To Camelot!

Lords and Ladies of Adventure! Join me on this week's Prog-Watch for a look at the Legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table as portrayed in Progressive Rock music! The program will, of course, draw a bit on Rick Wakeman's two albums dealing with the Arthurian Legend. But I've also found great tunes from Kayak, The Minstrel's Ghost, Finisterre, Erik Norlander, Galahad, and Children In Paradise, which all deal with the characters and story surrounding the  Legendary English King. I've also peppered the show with a few other references for a little comic relief, if you know what I mean (wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more)! This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3136310/advertisement
