The Yugoslavian Appreciation Lair

 

 

 

 

 

Yea, of course, both Gentle Giant and Pink Floyd should be in supposed English Prog section, but with those multiply tags for each band at their PA' pages. A combination of tags with already existed PA' genres names (as a heritage of these pages' good ol' times, plus two new tags and that would be "chamber prog" & "gothic prog") that links to PA' genres definitions but also that determine the band' style at best. So, instead of those definitions that are now on the top of everything, instead of those definitions which are in fact pretty fantasized assumptions as e.g. "crossover prog" which, during the time, is fallen to the tag for "awful" prog that is a charming melodie and easy thrill, instead of those genres that often create a ping-pong party among teams and so on, it should be that at PA' home page that a reader comes across some interesting & true stories and the historical facts about English Prog, ex-Yugoslavian Prog, German Prog; not "Krautrock" what should be just one of tags due to the fact that the term at present day means 'motorik psych' (almost) only, although perhaps that krautrock the term should go out of official use at PA as a term that was actually originated by some not very imaginative English journalist in the ancient times and what always sounded disparagingly regarding the great bands as Can or Popol Vuh; I could imagine how I or somebody else from ex-Yugoslavia should feel if an unimaginative London's journalist called ex-Yugoslavian progressive rock bands, for example, "slivovitzrock"
