I just got the Magma - Theus Hamtachk Triogie (dont know how to spell it) and it's pretty great, too bad it wasn't a performance from the 70s but it is still very impressive it starts off kind of slow, but the way they finish with MDK was unbelievable, Aaron |

Some of my favourites; Steve Hackett- Once Above A Time/Somewhere In South America (same band but thankfully little duplication; great musicianship- also some top notch newer songs from 'To Watch The Storms' alongside the fan favourites) Uriah Heep- Acoustically Driven/ The Magician's Birthday Party (the former is mud in the eye for all who say Heep ain't prog and the latter is one gig I'd love to have seen- Ken Hensley's return to the band is emotional for fans) Yes- Keys To Ascension (an absolute dream of a set list with the band on great form) Caravan- 35th Anniversary Concert (their new line-up has gelled a treat and they play a terrific set list with the band on great form) Magnum- Livin' The Dream (great to hear their wonderful 'On A Storyteller's Night' live in full) Nektar- Live (mix is very dodgy but it's a great show) Jethro Tull- Living With The Past (Ian's voice isn't what it used to be, but what a gig this is- one of the best line-ups ever with a brilliant set) ELP- Live At Montreux (takes a while to get going, but it reaches a great climax with some brilliant versions of classics) Genesis- The Way We Walk (ok there are later songs, but most of em are all great live and the 'We Can't Dance' songs are particularly strong here) Rick Wakeman- Live In Cuba (great show with a top form band and a crowd that just lap it up!) Pink Floyd- Live At Pompeii (almost every song sounds better here to me) |

As I'm still most interested in the bands from the 70's, lately I have been buying more DVD's than CD's, because I've already got the CD's of my favourites a long time ago and those bands don't produce new material at all or if they do, only in slow pace.
So, the prog-list includes, alphabetically and with comments: Ian Anderson: Plays the Orchestral Jethro Tull (the acoustic side of Tull and Anderson accompanied by a full orchestra, Anderson's funny introductions are a big plus, one of my favourites) Fish: Fool's Company (I ordered it for the complete performance of Misplaced Childhood and other Marillion favourites revisited, Fish voice has deteriorated a lot, but female backing vocalists compensate it a lot, musically as well...) Peter Gabriel: Secret World Live (a nice setlist, but choreography doesn't fit to Gabriel's performance in my opinion, love the theatrics though) also Peter Gabriel: Growing Up Live and Live & Unwrapped (had to have them too, partly out of habit I guess) Genesis: Live (obviously unauthorized and therefore bad quality, but interesting, because it gives a chance to peek into a Gabriel-led Genesis performance, I wish this DVD had been properly repolished like Led Zeppelin's DVD is, why isn't there a decent Genesis live DVD from the 70's, who's to blame?) Genesis: Live at Wembley Stadium & The Way We Walk (I prefer the latter, for its setlist is more interesting) David Gilmour: In Concert (acoustic Floyd, some of it is fantastic, some a bit boring and confusing: what was the point in playing Shine On, part 1 acoustically? Different, ok, but does it work? NO!) Jethro Tull: Slipstream & Living with the Past (I strongly dislike Anderson's notion that a live performance is not enough, both of these are spoiled by combining a concert with videos and interviews etc.) Marillion: Recital of the Script (I like it a lot that Fish "acts" the songs instead of merely singing them, theatrics and prog belong together for me) also Marillion: Live from Loreley (a better setlist, but less theatrical, still a favourite) & From Stoke Row to Ipanema (all songs from Season's End and some Fish-era stuff, a somewhat unnecessary documentary included) & Marbles on the Road (a long setlist and some embryonic versions of Marbles' songs, another favourite) Rush: Rush in Rio (badly mixed, but a long set, with lots of favourites) & R30 (better mix and much more interesting extras, such as "live in studio" versions of 70's favourites) Roger Waters: In the Flesh - Live (probably my all time favourite DVD, a great setlist and surprisingly good versions of Floyd songs by Waters' band and some of the best Waters' solo stuff as well, still I wish he would have published a live DVD from his 2002 tour instead, when he played both parts of Shine On You Crazy Diamond in their entirety and running order from Wish You Were) Yes: Keys to Ascension (the best of the 70's material live with ridiculous animation and other visuals popping up without warning) & Live from the House of Blues (visuals thrown away, but less inspiring setlist) (Sorry for the overly detailed post!) |

I won't list all the prog DVD, just talk about the last one i bought in Netherlands, following Erik's advice:
PF Anthology Incredible documents with pieces from 1968 to 1972, alternate versions -far more psychedelic than studio versions cause more improvised- including: "Jugband blues" (with Syd), "Set the control" , "Cymbaline" ( note that Gilmour sings like a casserole, as usual), "Atom heart mother" live Japan. A must have for any PF first era lover. |

Well, I'm not yet really familiar with the prog-scene, but I've bought my first DVD's, which are: Dream Theater - Live At Budokan Rush - R30 I absolutely LOVE the R30 dvd, even if it was just for the incredible design of the case and the menu's. The concert is pretty slick, but when I bought Rio the crowd on R30 seemed pretty laid-back. It doesn't bother me, but after seeing the show in Rio..... The DT dvd's are pretty good, but it's obvious they had a nice budget for the Budokan DVD. Some excellent shots, and ofcourse a well performance by the band. |

Marco Minnemann "Extreme Independence" Okay, I know this is a drum instructional video, but just play it with the Performance Only option selected. Wow! His prog is amazing and the fusion he plays with Wolfgang Schmidt is stunning.

oh man Erik you aren't kidding... the cost of the DVD is covered by those two incredible 'Pooneil' performances. I drool at Jack Casady's bass solo on the Ballad of You & Me and Pooneil. slapping that in the player now.. .I haven't watched that in awhile.  |

Just wondering:
Is there any live concert footage of Hatfield & The North with Dave Stewart behind the keys? A DVD perhaps? That would have been swell! |
