Anyway, I think Camel is a far cry from Yes, Genesis, Kansas, Echolyn (for a modern example) and countless other symphonic bands that have more robust arrangements.

I agree, to me they have the same warm appeal that I get from Caravan.

Can't all prog be considered eclectic?

And all of those bands are a pretty far cry from each other, anyway.

Again, something I'd agree with (but not the point I was making- I was referring to the sophistication of the composition)...I think Genesis kind of belongs in prog folk anyway.  Wink

I thought you might have because I saw that he has played with Zorn. Either way, I found him through the station I'm listening to now, I just didn't check him out until today.

I can't keep track of everybody who played with Zorn. ;-)

Wiener Dog on a Minimoog was extremely annoying.

Antonius Rex's Per Viam, second worst album this year.

I don't care if it's intentionally metal.

Why don't you listen to all the jazz that's been released this year instead of all this terrible prog?
