Yah-soo! A new blog for the New Year ahead! This is a celebration of all things Greek for those Greek geeks amongst us who know there's a lot more to Greek prog than just Aphrodite's Child and Vangelis. With thanks to Octopus-4 for the inspiration for this blog, which should hopefully avoid any further controversy over whether or not Greece is part of Eastern Europe.

Not that I today will claim Greece to be an East European country. |

Me neither. I don't want to reopen that can of Greek worms again, so to speak. At least we're all agreed that Greece is at the southern end of the Balkan peninsula. I'm currently in the process of moving all of the Greek bands over to this blog from my East European Prague Archives blog. Edited by Psychedelic Paul - December 31 2022 at 06:26 |

Plenty to look forward to there, and at least I won't have to wait long to feature Ciccada in my alpha to omega listings, although I haven't yet figured out where the letter "C" fits in the Greek alphabet.

A classical Greek prog scholar, who bears an uncanny resemblance to Robert John Godfrey of The Enid.

Pardon the interruption, but may I recommend La Tulipe Noire, a neo prog band from Athens that was active from 1992 to 2017? I have two of their albums and thought they were nicely done. I believe most of their albums are YouTube accessible.

Great suggestion! I'll be happy to add La Tulipe Noire to the Greek prog playlist, just as soon as I've figured out whether they should be listed under the letter "L" or the letter "T" 1992: La Tulipe Noire - Words of the Wind 1996: La Tulipe Noire - In the Gates of Dream 2000: La Tulipe Noire - Shattered Image 2002: La Tulipe Noire - Faded Leaves 2006: La Tulipe Noire - Nostimon Hemar 2013: La Tulipe Noire - Matricide

Yes, at least "phi" sounds more phonetic for the letter "F" than "degamma".

I really wish I could add Giorgios Kyriacos Panayiotou here too, but realistically, I know he belongs in A Different Corner of ProgArchives.
