^ Thanks for the list. I'd completely forgotten about Greece, mainly because I'm old enough to still think of Eastern Europe as being the former communist countries of the old Soviet bloc (ie. Bulgaria; Czechoslovakia; East Germany; Hungary; Romania; Poland; & Yugoslavia) Smile

As you know, I'm always Hungary for more prog, and having recently had a Czech through some of the best prog that Eastern Europe has to offer, I've Moldova my choices and come to the conclusion that Hungarian band Solaris are one of the best bands of all, with their five albums of Symphonic Prog all Polished to perfection.  Thumbs Up

4 stars 1990: Solaris - Solaris 1990 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhH0kH1xRKY
5 stars 1999: Solaris - Nostradamus Book of Prophecies - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONVCDE1maec

Thanks for all of the video postings from the near east and further afield in Uzbekistan.
 
I was going to call this blog the "Eastern European Prog-Rock Appreciation Thread", but I thought "Prague Archives" had a nice familiar ring to it. Smile
