You should make a CD that has a good representation of prog from all era's. As for me... I don't really make those CD's. But I'll come up with a list when I can think of some logical answers.

that's exactly what I did. at the time I burned the cd I didn't know much about prog. if you ntice I did what "snow dog" suggested - 8 tracks only. anyway instead of VDGG and gentle giant I put 2 long songs that I thought to be prog by Boston and the Scorpions. later I learned there was probably no relation. the songs I collected for the next collection in the meantime are:

VDGG - Killer
Gentle Giant - The Runaway
Nektar - That's Life
Renaissance - A Trip to the Fair
Hawkwind - Mirror of Illusion

Where have you all been? I've been doing this for some time now. Make my own covers and everything. Most are double cd's. A few triple and quadruple cd's, all with themes and my own titles. This is the only way to listen as I rarely like every track on a commercial prog album. There are exceptions of course, but my own compilations is the way to go for me. Here a few examples:

Zeuhl Rule: 3 cd various bands in sub-genre.

In PROG We Trust: 2 cd general prog compilation

Prog-Rock at the Beeb: 4 cd of great BBC studio and concert tracks from 1969 to present

Sirens of Valhalla...A Scandinavian Prog-Rock Sampler: 2 cd-Norway and Sweden's finest

Prog-Goddess: 2 cd compilation featuring female lead singers

Prognosis: title an obvious lift, but another 2 cd general prog compilation

I think there should be songs from the different subgenres of prog. So here's what I'd make of it:

Genesis - Firth of Fifth ( 9 min ) [ Symphonic Prog ]
Jethro Tull - Hunting Girl ( 5 min) [ Folk Prog ]
Hawkwind - Psychedelic Warlords ( 7 min ) [ Space Prog ]
Dream Theater - Metropolis pt 1 ( 9 min ) [ Prog Metal ]
Caravan - Winter Wine ( 8 min ) [ Canterbury ]
Neu! - Hallogallo ( 10 min ) [ Kraut Rock ]
Marillion - The Web ( 9 min ) [ Neo-Prog ]
Premiata Forneria Marconi - Impressioni di Settembre ( 6 min ) [ Italian Prog ]
Mahavishnu Orchestra - Dawn ( 5 min ) [ Fusion ]
Rush - Tom Sawyer ( 5 min ) [ Art Rock ]
Godspeed You Black Emperor! - 09-15-00 (Part Two) ( 6 min ) [ Experimental / Post-Rock ]

That clocks in at just a little under 80 minutes so it would fit on one CD. OK, there's nothing of Zeuhl there, but that's not really a genre in my books anyway.. the songs represent their subgenres pretty well, I guess.

  2. Egg - Contrasong
  3. Los Jaivas - La Quebrá del Ají
  4. Van Der Graaf Generator - Nutter Alert
  5. Samla Mammas Manna - Svackopoängen
  6. 5uu's - Opportunity Bangs
  7. Alamaailman Vasarat - Lentävä Mato
  8. Stormy Six - Buon Lavaro!
  9. Ozric Tentacles - Iscence
  10. Nathan Mahl - The Rubber Cage
  11. Area - Vodka Cola
  12. Cardiacs - The Duck and Roger the Horse
  13. The Muffins - Hobart Got Burned
  14. Taal - Stratus
Total Time: 77 minutes exactly.

...It is a good compilation. *sighs contentedly*

Many of Jan Akkerman's solo albums have much appeal to me. Yet, on each release, there is a mix of, lighter, or heavier tunes - even baroque and they don't always blend well together. So I burned a couple of CDs compiling similar styles on each. That is a much more preferable mix to me - also keeps Akkerman in my "good books".

Did I already mentioned I know none of those artists, with the exception of VDGG.

trust it's a good compilation.

 

will be 81 minutes, need to lose a minute

1. Lazing On A Sunday Afternoon - Queen
2. Aristillus - Camel
3. Giant For A Day - Gentle Giant
4. Killer - VDGG
5. Circus - King Crimson
6. Trip To The Fair - Renaissance
7. Firth Of Fifth - Genesis
8. Kobaïa - Magma
9. Zero The Hero - Gong
10. We Are Sane - Twelfth Night
11. Breaking The Spell - Pendragon
11. Fugazi - Marillion

 

edit:
actually it's 90 minutes, forgot to add zero the hero in the calculated time. so I'll have to lose 10 minutes, delete Firth Of Fifth, and use overburn
