Someone mentioned Holdsworth album, "Men of the Tain".
This is not relevant to this thread. The Táin Bó Cúailnge is a mythical history, a hero tale of Pagan Ireland where a war is initiated by a cattle-raid. ............ There is a 70s Italian prog where each track is a woman's name - but damned if I can remember it! Uhh....possibly Infinity "Planetarium"???? |

Wołanie o Brzęk Szkła by SBB is a unique case. One of its reissues (entitled Slovenian Girls) replaces the tracks' long tongue twistery Polish titles with girls' names.

I think it's been pretty common in Prog when it comes to Progressive Psych, Canterbury Scene and Progressive Folk and lots of exmaples scattered throughout PA's categories (which does extend beyond traditional or one might say stereo-typical Prog-as-genre music). Swans is one of my favourite bands in PA with links to experimental rock, folk, and post-rock amongst other things. It's in PA under Post-Rock. Here are tracks with names in the titles: "Mona Lisa, Mother Earth" (The Burning World, 1989) "Jane Mary, Cry One Tear" (The Burning World, 1989) "Jim" (My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to the Sky, 2010) "Inside Madeline" (My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to the Sky, 2010) "Just a Little Boy (For Chester Burnett)" (To Be Kind, 2014) "Bring the Sun / Toussaint L'Ouverture" (To Be Kind, 2014) "Kirsten Supine" (to be Kind, 2014) "Nathalie Neal" (To Be Kind, 2014) "Frankie M" (The Glowing Man, 2016) "Annaline' (leaving meaning., 2019) "Michael Is Done" (The Beggar, 2023) |
