Just popped in for a quick intro.  I've been a prog fan since high school ben the late 80s, fore I knew the genre actually had a name.  I dabbled listening to other not-so-proggy bands throughout my adult life, but I always come back to prog.  The last 10 years or so I've navigated more to jazz and fusion, so always looking for recommendations for that kind of music.  Bandcamp has been great for discovering new music, too.

Cheers
Jim

Thanks for the warm welcome! 

Grumpyprogfan - I have most of those in my collection already but you listed a few that were not in my radar (Dewa Budjana, Nova Collective, FAT (Fabulous Austrian Trio), Panzerballett, Tohpati) so I will be checking those out. Thanks!
