for various reasons i am revisiting my prog rock collection. listening to old favourites (yes, elp, king crimson, styx, kansas, genesis, the nice etc etc) and discovering new bands of the prog pantheon.
when you mention prog in polite society you can almost hear the brain of the other person seize up, you can see their eyes glaze over and their silent prayer that the ground opens up and swallows them. it's at moments like these i realise two things:
1] that people who don't like prog are probably fans of crazy frog.
2] that prog is like faith you either understand it or you don't.
for those of you who want to know more about the wonders of prog go here.
time for me to go and listen to a long wig out between guitars, keyboards and epic vocals.

Is there a mid-way point? Crazy-Prog anyone?

but we all know you are cool. no need to show off.
