  • Summary

  • Progressive Rock was a revolutionary music genre that emphasized flashy musicianship and wild experimentation. In the wake of the psychedelic 60s, Prog Rock would scale the heights of commercial and critical success. Its star burned brightly, but only five years later it was in terminal decline, destined to be lost to the sands of time. Join your host Ian Prise and his guests each week as we trace the rise and fall of Prog Rock, album by album.

Sorta hooked

Came across this through a chat with my brother and was curious. I’ve always run adjacent to this music style, I’ve heard some of it, but never thought of myself as a fan. However, I’m really enjoying listening to a group of people who clearly really love it.
By listening to the albums interspersed with their chat I’m hearing it differently. There’s nice flow through the series and I’m gonna keep listening and learning.
Pleasantly surprised - Thanks!
