| On the basis of his current bandcamp albums I'd probably put him in the ''unsigned artists'' category. One to watch re future releases. |

Well, another album was added to bandcamp six days ago, but it is called 'Edits and Excerpts', and it is just that - edits and excerpts from the first two 'Dreams And Adventures' discs: http://scottgillham.bandcamp.com/album/edits-and-excerpts" rel="nofollow - http://scottgillham.bandcamp.com/album/edits-and-excerpts . Still on the 'one to watch' list for now...

Is he Symphonic or Crossover? What albums are available outside of internet sites? -------------

I suggested him to Crossover section because at the time when I suggested him I wasn't quite sure that your esteemed Team is willing to eval an artist with digital albums only. He didn't print CDs as far as I know.

It's entirely up to the team whether or not they wish to accept digital-only artists. The symphonic team chooses not to. ------------- http://ow.ly/8ymqg" rel="nofollow">

No problem Andy, if they chooses so, that is that. However, at October 2014 they added http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=99593" rel="nofollow - GreyField based at digital release only. Couple of times they have changed their attitude toward digital-only artists actually, so that I could not suggest Mr Gillham for Symphonic section because I didn't know what was their attitude back in July 2013.Maybe due to same reason the Crossover Team moved sugestion to Symphonic; I mean, the Crossover boys maybe didn't know that new attitude of the Symphonic Team toward digital-only artists? Nevermind. It's not important anymore. Any chance for Neo?

My opinion on this is that this man's outputs are too much on an amateur/underground level, basically home-like productions and I personally dislike the fact that several tracks are chosen to form separate releases or the longer ones to form the compilation, not a proper move I should say...plus anything symphonic rejects isn't Neo in my opinion...I am willing to keep an eye on the case though for a future album, pls knock the door for any further news. ------------- When the power of love overcomes the love of power,the world will know peace... listen to www.justincaseradio.com , the first ever Greek Progressive Rock radio |

That was we were discussing in the team's thread, the release doesn't sound as a professional recording. The music is quite good, but the production doesn't meet the standards of PA in my opinion We will also keep an eye, because the music seems very close to Symphonic. Iván -------------

I respect your opinion Iván, as an expert's opinion as well. But, do you heard Mr Gillham re-released / compiled album Dreams & Adventures (The Progressive Tracks) ? http://scottgillham.bandcamp.com/album/dreams-and-adventures-the-progressive-tracks" rel="nofollow - http://scottgillham.bandcamp.com/album/dreams-and-adventures-the-progressive-tracks
In my humble opinion, it's a quite nice (symphonic) sound i.e. Mr Gillham already reached that 'professional manner' with Dreams & Adventures (The Progressive Tracks) ; anyway, it's a beautiful album and I'd like to recommend Dreams & Adventures (The Progressive Tracks) to everybody who love listening to Symphonic rock with a peacefully, gentle atmosphere  |

Please Svetonio, making a compilation album is a clever way of adding two amateurish studio albums, because we add all the discography. We heard it all, and the answer is still no -------------

Just wanna say that the production of Mr Gillham's re-released / compiled album Dreams & Adventures (The Progresssive Tracks) is perfectly fine to these ears and I strongly recommend the album to all the fans of that mellow Symphonic rock in the style of '70s. Of course, the production always could be better. |

Again Svetonio IT'S A COMPILATION. His studio albums have an amateur production, this compilation is recorded with pieces from his previous albums -------------
