Right on the inside of the CD. :)

Rafella has a good listing on the top of her review.

Some very 'Yes' like symphonic prog. Only that it is nearly as if not better than Yes' masterpeices: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/vailrealm

A Customer Review:

If you liked Yes in those old days...

author: GIBRALTAR PROGRESSIVE ROCK ENCLYCLOPEDIA

                            Here's a band that sounds more like Yes than Yes itself. These guys have focused in on CttE and ToTO period Yes, studied every composition, styling, nuance, and generally have assumed
the character of that band, and in fact have done it quite faithfully, with the only notable exception being Squire's bass stylings. To my
ears, vocalist/guitarist Darrel Studna sounds *exactly* like Jon Anderson, and keyboardist Steve Vail sounds enough like Wakeman to fool all but the most discriminating listeners. If you liked Yes in those old days and wish they still
sounded that way, wish no more ... pick this album up and imagine it's 1973 again.

Very well-received new Prog on the classical/ambient side - "The Water is Wide Variations" by Al Fleeman (me!). A 'made-for-cd' instrumental album, pieces are interlinked for an immersive experience (and there's a 12-page booklet with imagery/info to complement each track).

Available in dollars from http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/alfleeman or in pounds from http://alfleeman.com

my band Tempus Fugit (not the Brazillian band but the Toronto band) has a new album Shallow Water Blackout which is up on CD Baby at
http://www.cdbaby.com/Artist/TempusFugit
FYI we will be playing on April 8 2010 between 1PM and 5PM at Brutopia in Montreal in conjunction with The Marillion Convention - which will be a mix of originals and Marillion songs.

I'll join in the general throng here and humbly submit my CD. I recently got accepted into Crossover so this is probably quite timely.

Thanks for listening.

I used to be a CD Baby addict. It starts by searching for bands you know so the site will pull up bands that (allegedly) sound similar. I've discovered some pretty great stuff this way.

Not long ago I decided the cons outweighed the pros when it came to owning CDs so I mainly download all my music now (as long as it's high bitrate and non-DRM). Fortunately CD Baby does that too!

I finally put my own thing out there recently. It's currently being considered for inclusion into PA but you're welcome to check it out:

Well, not surprisingly my old band is on cdbaby too. Technically we are now defunct. There is a little prog influence but it's mostly post-rock. Now I'm not suggesting anybody buy this, unless it strikes your fancy. But I guess it's worth a listen: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/antimatterfox

There is also this excellent band: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/teaclub

Whose second album I can assure easily surpasses this, although I'm not sure exactly when it will be available

Hello peoples! I read through your thread, and thought I might suggest my band to you for a listen! (Not trying to be cocky, but if I didn't promote, I wouldn't be doing my job!) We are on CDbaby, myspace, facebook, all that good stuff. We are called "Sleep Siren." Please take a listen and let me know what you think!

Thanks everyone!

P.S. - We are out of hard copies on cdbaby. We lose money selling our hard copies, unfortunately. However if anyone wants one, I'd be happy to handle the transaction myself. :-)

Prog On!
