Another gem from the late 90's. This is for the mellotron fans out there.

I have 2 lp's by Machiavel...like this one quite a bit. Not real obscure but I have not heard them mentioned here...at least in a very long time.

Comment didn't go through on the last one so: "This is no obscure prog album (not if you've been keeping up with the Italians)."

An epic from a band I mentioned earlier and that is Crucible. Fans of PG era Genesis will want to check it out. Very good prog from the late 90's.

How about some Bruford! I seem to like his solo work a little more than the common man to say the least.

All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

Yes, perhaps being classified as “Prog related” is a good solution in cases where there is disagreement, or in instances where artists cover more than one particular style, but include significant Prog character. That could be a nice preventative, a sort of fail-safe measure.

Sounds quite proggy to my ears, but my definition of Prog tends to be broader than the status quo.
I’m curious how it ended up being classified.

US prog from the 70's. I put this on a mixed tape I made in the 90's.

Yeah, I know. There's nothing prog-like about, say, Hoola Bandoola Band, but I think this particular Contact track has a bit of it. Sure, it's relatively straight forward in terms of song structure, but the sound ot it, f.e. with the organ... They have other songs with no prog elements though.
