Download in a MS help file format (click on "CHM" link) available at: http://sgm.paullee.ru/index.htm - http://sgm.paullee.ru/index.htm This is a brief guide to European progressive rock from 1967 to 1980 with alphabetical listing of the bands by country and selected albums discography. It concentrates on the more obscure bands who are virtually unknown and is a valuable guide to collectors. I checked specifically the part on Yugoslavian bands and I must say the author is well-informed about the 1970s rock scene in Yugoslavia. Each band has a short biography and description of the style, which is followed by the list of essential LP records issued by 1980 (in certain cases up to 1982). Some minor typos of the names and titles should be corrected though, but perhaps to the non-South Slav reader it is not a big problem. Based on this part of the book only, I can recommend a read.  Regards, Sead S. Fetahagic (Seyo) Sarajevo |
