I am afraid we will have to generalize the question...  I am far from England but I think the situation is global. People do not listen to prog. Nowadays, this is music of a minority. It's pop that rules the world!

...and I mean that this is the country that invented prog, am I right?

What is the reason that they don't hear to prog or at least classic rock?

This country has "produced" The Beatles, Jethro Tull and thousands more...........

Nothing personal with the English, I have been studying here for 2 months now and I was wondering....

Is it the music industry? Nobody seems to bother with good bands... except from fellows that saw IQ last weekend.  

Still I haven't found a good review, give us some details.............
