I couldn't help noticing Danish prog is missing from your list. Wink

Yes, you know the answer. Big smile

If I started a fave Danish Prog thread, it would be at most top 5, but more probably top 3. LOL

To save you the time in starting a Danish prog thread, here's one Nick made earlier, in true Blue Peter fashion. Smile

I'd like to wade through David's Denmark best band/album list.

Very nice with this interest of yours, Cindy, so here's a list of my entire but very small Danish music collection

- all albums more or less Danish classics.

Prog

Ache (DK) - De Homine Urbano (1970, quite interesting Prog-historically and an example of rare Danish Symphonic)

Bazaar (DK) - Bazaar Live (1978, Prog Folk with East European, Turkish and Middle East influences)

Burnin’ Red Ivanhoe (DK) - W.W.W. (1971, one of the most internationally appreciated Danish Prog bands)

Secret Oyster (DK) - Sea Sun (1974, my absolutely fave Danish band since high school)

Sievert & Tolonen (DK) - After Three Days (1978, Jazz Fusion with Latin and other influences)

Non-Prog or not quite

Before (DK) - A Wish of Life (1982, amazing lo-fi Post-Punk, strongly influenced by The Doors)

Bifrost (DK) - Bifrost (1976, very melodic Folk-Rock, Danish vocals)

Gnags (DK) - X (1983, reggish New Wave, Danish vocals)

Kliche (DK) - Okay Okay Boys (1982, New Wave/Art Pop with distinct, Danish vocals)

Kræn Bysted (DK) - Stavnsbundet (1980, very political Folk-Rock, Danish vocals)

Mercyful Fate (DK) - Melissa (1983, Heavy Metal, probably the most internationally appreciated and innovative

Danish album, Satanic English vocals)

Savage Rose (DK) - Dødens Triumf (1972, ballet soundtrack, very special female vocalist, one of Paul's loves)

Sh*t & Chanel (DK) - Shit & Chanel (1975, all-female very nice, soft, non-complex Jazz-Rock with Danish vocals)

Sort Sol (DK) - Glamourpuss (1993, quite straight Alternative Rock)

I hope, you can find something you like there. Smile

Well, when you're in Denmark, do as the Danes do, and seeing as you're from Denmark, Danish Prog was conspicuous by its absence from your list of prog nations. Smile

not only from my list LOL

If the thought of reviving Nick's tribute to Danish prog puts your head in a spin, then maybe I should start my own Danish prog thread. Wink

You could start a thread about Savage Rose, your Heart

I only know Secret Oyster. I'll check out the rest of the bands. That said, I've only OF secret oyster...I've never listened to them. They're first on my list.

It'll be interesting to see how you find Sea Sun, even you might prefer Straight to the Krankenhaus or maybe even their first which is quite different from the other two.

It's wonderful, but for me their follow-up Don't Break the Oath from 1984 is their peak.

But I can be quite suprised by the so far surely limited interest for the Czeslaw Niemen thread.

As a general rule for the threads in Progressive Music Lounges, I'd like people to keep the PA rule which says:

"Prog Music lounge

This section is for general discussions about Progressive music. Unless and until an artist is included in Prog Archives, they are not considered to be "prog". In other words, discussions in "Prog Music Lounge" should only be about groups/music currently included in Prog Archives, or about progressive music in general. "

I've been quite busy with new threads lately, and another one is on its way.
