I definitely have a Jethro Tull feature in the works, they are among my favourite prog bands, and I saw them live many, many times.

Heart   Thank you so much!  A bit of a swerve from my usual show, but there will be more Prog Folk/Adjacent shows to come, most are various artists.  Glad you enjoyed it!

Hi There, George!

So glad you've been listening, enjoying, and also supporting acts that you've found from the show.  Smile

I did find that once I'd recorded and sent in the show to the main host that the Solstice release did get added to Bandcamp, but it was too late to alter the show's narration by then.  The record company didn't get it added until several weeks after the release on the label site, apparently.  I was able to let those in chat know they could get it on Bandcamp and that will be on my FB post that I'm going to put up today re Bandcamp Friday.

I have continued to follow the Interactive Polls and may indeed join in again should a theme strike me (as having something new to offer), and time allow.  Those polls were instrumental in my realization that a Progressive audience would enjoy adjacent material in other genres, which partially led to the fruition of the show segment itself.  

Thank you so much for commenting, and for listening!

  Thank you, Mike!  This one will be different than my typical monthly shows. and even different than my projected prog folk shows, since it's all about one group, but hopefully listeners will enjoy.

Attention Fans of Musical Niches:  

From the Department of Prog Folk Notifications Department, this just in.

"Nickie's Niches," will be doing a deep dive into the music of The Pentangle as a guest offering on Chuck Simons’ “Top 10” show, tomorrow, 11 April, from 8:00 AM - 10 AM PT, on Progrock.com.

I chose The Pentangle to start, as they were my gateway drug into Prog Folk and they have quite the legacy, both as a group and also the numerous solo and side projects of John Renbourn and Bert Jansch.
