I've been thinking a lot about progressive rock lately and then Sound Opinions goes a does a show on it. In the show they made five recommendations for albums to listen to, so that's what I'm going to do. The albums are
Pretty Things, S.F. Sorrow, 1968
Kraftwerk, Autobahn, 1974
Yes, Close to the Edge, 1972
King Crimson, In the Court of the Crimson King, 1969
Yes, Going for the One, 1977
Luckily they have the first three on Rhapsody so I can listen to them there. Napster has Going for the One. I will probably try Grooveshark for the King Crimson album. If you don't know anything about Grooveshark it is essentially the YouTube of music.
Hopefully I'll be inspired to write about the albums. It's funny but I've never really thought of myself as a progressive rock person, but I was a huge Saga fan.
