My apologies to anyone (especially Chopper) who's disappointed not to see Phrozenlight on the above list, but I don't have a year to spare to complete his humungous discography. Wink

No problem. I also like the Dutch bands Ayreon, Delain, Epica & Within Temptation, but that would have made the list too long and unmanageable if I'd included modern Dutch prog too. Smile

I haven't heard any music by the other Dutch bands you mentioned - at least, not yet. Embarrassed

Get ready for an Avalanche of great music in the vast Pantheon of Dutch prog. The Focus is clearly on Trace-ing the history of classic Dutch prog, starting from the Golden (Earring) era of the 1970's and early 80's. The Cargo-load of 57 varieties of artists listed below are all included in ProgArchives, with the Ekseption of Shocking Blue (Proto Prog), Tax Free (Jazz-Rock/Fusion) and Machine (Heavy Prog). The idea for this blog began originally with a  list of twelve well-known Dutch prog bands - a Mirror-image of a recent series of classic Dutch prog polls. Then I realised there was Scope to include many more relatively-unknown artists in the list too, with the ideal Solution being to Spin it out to over fifty classic Dutch bands. There are now enough artists to Sustain this blog for months ahead and throw more Light on the subject of classic Dutch Prog generally, although it doesn't take a  Brainbox to know I'd be up the creek without a Kayak if I didn't include Jan Akkerman of Focus in the list - one of only three solo artists here (Pat Cool and Thomas Flinter are both band names). Smile
