This theme poll brings to you the newly Christened prog genre "Thunder Prog".  All of these song titles reference thunder, and hopefully some of them leave you a bit thunderstruck.  Give them a listen and let me know which three of these are your favorite.  No tracks chosen from the big 10 bands both intentionally, and because no songs came up in my search.  

I once again have attempted to include a YouTube video playlist for those who like that method of giving the songs a listen.  Hopefully, some of the songs go down a storm.  I've tried to keep the thread fairly eclectic, but as you can guess with a theme such as thunder, there is a lot of metal in the midst.  Have fun....and I hope that you're not afraid of a little thunder!

Well that’s a large and varied list. While I think about it, and listen to some of the songs I’m not familiar with, I’ll put in a vote for Diagonal.

I think this is a pretty fun playlist.  25 different interpretations of thunder.  The last song from S.M.V. was a pretty cool discovery for me.  For those that don't know, The Wishing Tree is a Steve Rothery side project.  I believe that the song from Vlatko Stefanovski Trio includes Jan Akkerman on guitar.  Not to mention, that Phil Collins guy used to be the drummer for Genesis back during their prog period.  Wink

Chicago is listed here on PA....not for this song obviously.  I only have a couple of Thin Lizzy albums and none of the songs had Thunder in their title, so I don't know to which song you are referring.

Nevermind.  Just listened to Thunder and Lightning on Spotify.  I hadn't heard that song before.  Almost sounds like something out of the Motorhead catalogue.

Thin Lizzy's last album is really good, if you have not listened to the whole thing, you should. Smile

Now I want to listen to "Thunder and Lightning" by one of my favorite comedy bands, Ninja Sex Party.

It definitely is a great playlist! Thanks for putting it up, Scott. Thumbs Up

This time I'm actually favouring the more jazzy outfits:
- Karn/Bozzio/Torn; this one is from the only album I have from this list - a great album overall.
- Vlatko Stefanovski Trio; I definitely have to check out this album, this is a fantastic track!
- S.M.V.; pretty cool discovery for me too!

Very nice going through this list (although I have to admit that I skipped through some of the more metally thingies...). Keep them coming!

I really appreciate the inclusion of a Shadow Circus track in this poll. John and Dave will be chuffed to bits. Obviously, I voted for it - with the Amon Düül II song as a runner-up. Scott, you'll probably be glad to hear that their new album should be out soon, and that's going to be very metal! Thin Lizzy would also be one of my choices if it was included in the poll, though "Thunder and Lightning" is not my favourite song on their eponymous album.

That is exciting news.  I thought that Shadow Circus was no more.   A new album from them is definitely sometihng to look forward to.
