I heard this brilliant song by a Japanese artist called Kitaro which strangely isn't on PA. Though a bit on the sappy side with little complexity, it has some of the most beautiful melodies--with great classical elements. The actual song is called Kokoro and its definetely worth taking a look at.

"Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding".....oh, yeah! Sort of like "gateway" prog. The kind of stuff that sends you to the record shops looking for LPs from Yes and Camel and Gentle Giant and Genesis and......

The first thing that comes into my mind is Abbey Road Side B seems like i'm not the only one. Once again I want to say that at least White Album and Abbey Road should be included ! |

[QUOTE=frenchie]led zeppelin - the rain song
A bit short.......................... and more a blues along the lines of the British blues boom happening at that time - Beatles were the great absorbers of musical influences, changing these into the unique Beatle thing.
Only a couple of tracks on Argus and Pilgrimage surely - Phoenix for instance, goes through the changes but is a classic along the lines of established blues rock jammin' - otherwise we better include Cream (on the strength of the live side of Wheels Of Fire - and Jack Bruce would tell you they were jamming ala jazz), Lynyrd Skynyrd on the strength of Fire Bird, The Outlaws on High Tide & Green Grass, ad nausea....................... Again the vague, woolly definitions of prog/prog rock are showing up. |

black sabbath - lots of their tracks esp their debut. Solitude from Master of Reality is sticking out at the moment, one of the most beautuiful songs i have ever heard, it has some very nice flute in it, the album also contains embryo and orchid that are acoustic and orchestral interludes (perhaps a very bifg inspiration for opeth). It has a very "i talk to the wind" feel to it. can anyone tell me who sings on this track? the vocals are beautiful but dont sound like ozzy. maybe its iommi or butler? led zeppelin, sabbath and the who are a lot more prog than some bands here like radiohead, phish, styx and nightwish. ------------- The Worthless Recluse
