Yes (pun not intended), prog did seem to be a peculiarly British and, perhaps, northern-European type of music. I seem to remember some (half-)wit in the past being asked to explain what makes a prog rock band. His answer: three tons of equipment and a public school education
Love this,brilliant. Saw Gordon Giltrap at Newcastle city hall in the early seventies,their were six of us in the audience and I'll give the guy his due we got the full concert and it was brilliant.Bloody Newcastle snow. Also saw Genesis a couple of times and as members of the fan club we used to get invites to the after gig party at The Dolce Vita.They were nice approachable guys in those days particularly Mike Rutherford but boy could they drink. Zappa was also good after a night out but had to be careful if we had a lass in tow as some of his lyrics were a bit fruity. Phil |

Being a big Oldfield fan (yes, I said it out loud) I agree that he's a difficult one to classify.....Quirky certainly encompasses a fair amount of what he's done where folk and rock (amongst others) fail to. |

It was more a case of finding the least offensive. |

I really love the nissed Viv Stanshall track on the digital release of "Bells" - so funny. I also liked Ommadawn a lot - until I found it's misspelled Gaelic for "idiot"! |

Just out of interest would you class Zappa as Prog rock or just different Edited by LOINER - 15 May 2015 at 5:31pm |
