TRUE!!...the flute is also formidably used in the two first albums...ear the magic epic piece called megaherz on their first!
Organisation (Schneider & Hutter original band) also contains a few flute parts to sustain the jam sessions.

The overexposure of Kenny G during the last 80's made me hate sax. But it certainly gives a special atmosphere, for example in DSOTM. On the other hand, flute is the core of my preferred band, Tull, in consecuence I love it.

Oh yes, you're so right.
There's a beautiful flute moment on "many a mile to freedom" from the Traffic album: "the low spark..."

Flute on Jethro Jull, damn basic, it is good on focus to, incredible on crimson's early works. Sax is great on several bands as well. So, i guess any kind of instrument can be added to prog rock, i mean, for me prog rock has this sort of flexibility that you woulndt find in other rock generes.

Don't forget SOLARIS or QUIDAM!! Great flute in the right places.
Not unlike our fellow member Man with Hat. I wish there were more prog bands with a woodwind/horn player in their line-up. The current progressive scene in South America has in the Argentinian quartet TANGER a perfect example of how a flute can fit well in a prog context. The Spanish band AMAROK has a sax player and a flute player in its line-up, which helps them to fulfill colourful landscapes of sound for their prog style rooted in Renaissance, Celtic and Arabic folk.

Don't forget John Egan's contributions to Ozric Tentacles - he's also a superb front man.

Fltue, sax, trumpet, cowbell, clarinet, bassoon, and all those other wind instraments (and yes i kno the cowbell is not a wind instrament) fit perfectly into the progessive genre. I wish more bands would use them.

I like the use of non-traditional "rock" instruments in rock music - Gong used plenty of them to great effect - notably on the track this thread is named after

Jethro Tull would be naked without their flute. And early GENESIS to a lesser extent as well. |
Absolutely - although, I wouldn't say "to a lesser extent" with Genesis; I think Gabriel's flute playing is pivotal to pre 1975 Genesis.
