Formentera Lady discovers the music on PA

Now I have finished to listen to the streams of the letter G in the symphonic prog section. In this letter I only know Genesis.

I would like to comment on the bands I found most notable:

- I used to play the recorder and I always wanted to combine the recorder with rock music like... Galie! I am not sure if this mexican band really uses a recorder or another type of flute, but it sounds very much like one. It alternates nicely with the synth solos and acoustical guitar. Although the flute is a bit intonated too high on these examples, I definitely like to hear more of them.

- In a very similar style than Galie is also this piece of the spanish band Gotic. Here the flute (recorder) is intonated correctly and I listened to it with enjoyment. Another one to check out.

- Gracious sounds dark, mysterious, powerful. Why have I never heard of it before? The samples of the early 70ies remind me a bit of King Crimson. This is simply... gracious!

- Sweden did a lot for the revival of progressive rock in the 90ies and later. So I was not surprised to find out that Grand Stand comes from this country, too. This example of music contains everything I like of this genre.

- I knew Dave Greenslade only from Colosseum, which is one of my favourite bands. Now I heard for the first time some music of the band he founded in the 70ies. Greenslade seems to be much influenced from Genesis and Yes of the same time. The result is much worth to check out.

- A surprise for me was to discover the german band Grobschnitt. The voice is a bit to get used to, but the music is typical 70ies prog, in the wake of Genesis and Yes. I am a german and I have never heard of this band before. It seems to me, this type of music does not have a tradition in my country, that's a pity.

- Shaun Guerin (R.I.P) sounds very much like early Genesis, which is not a surprise, as I just learnt, he was lead singer and drummer of the Genesis cover band Cinema Show. He died shortly after two solo albums.
The song, that is streamed here, sounds a bit darker, then the songs Genesis normally do.

Oh, I like Clearlight . I mentioned them in my first post (where I was not  yet so specific with comments on the bands.) But thank you for reminding me. I already thought, that I heard the voice earlier and could not figure it out immediately...
