You mention this and you don't post a link?


Sorry. Didn't know there was one. Had it on VCD (!) for years. Completely forgot there may be something online.

I'm glad. It seemed odd that Yes guitarist Trev was not in but Japan are. (there's a boot of P Tree where SW is really winding up Richard Barbieri and his assoiciations with New Romantic band Japan who are now prog. It is very funny.

 Back to the comedy, anyone ever see the Top Ten Prog - hosted by comedian Bill Bailey? Once on a UK TV show (a weekend special called TV hell) they revealed bailey in all his glory as a New Romantic - pink hair and all. He had the nerve to call Yes the boy band of prog!

So maybe that is the connection between new Romantics and prog. Somewhere between Hell and a Comedy.

I'm looking forward to reviewing Can't Look Away, (Jacaranda I don't care that much for to be honest)


He's been cleared for Crossover, yes.

So your argument is that he was a core member of a progressive band and a jazz fusion band and THEREFORE there is clearly nor reason or justification for adding him as a prog related artist??????

Your logic has left me speechless.
Trevor Rabin as solo artist is not the same thing of the bands he played in. Even though I still don't understand what "prog related" means, in order to be added to this site he should have a prog output in his solo discography, regardless what he has done with his bands. 
I wasn't talking about Rabin.

Read the Prog Related definition, if you still don't understand what that means then Prog Related is probably not something you should spend any time on.

It's not question of definitions. I still don't understand what "prog" means. About the "one album rule", during the last 8 years I've read it at least once. If it has been changed in the meantime, good to know., anyway if one full album qualifies badcamp's one shot artists why shouldn't an artist with a huge output and just one prog album? I understand that we shouldn't add non-prog stuff to the site and I'm not in favor of Rabin or Collins. 

What about a section like "VVAA sporadic prog albums?"

It's not to that point just yet, but it might get there if too much mud is tracked in the house by the childish behavior.

Seriously, either have a civil argument or bitch at each other via PM.
