Hello all! I'm a rather seasonned prog amateur from France. I bought my first EP in 1967 (Moody blues) and first LP in 1968 (Pink Floyd). 50 years listening prog! I like Yes, Genesis, Gentle Giant, Pink Floyd and many others from early 70's. Having much more time now since I retired in 2015, I spend my evenings discovering new groups and found PA very usefull and decided to join a few months ago (and list the ratings of my CD/LP/FLAC collection). I wish a long life to PA and all prog lovers  Pierre |

Bonjour et bienvenue, Pierre! I have a Francophone friend who introduced me to several French prog/prog-influenced acts, such as Pulsar, Atoll, Carpe Diem, Malicorne, Tri Yann, Alan Stivell, Jean-Luc Ponty and a little bit of Ange. I returned the favor by telling him about Seven Reizh and Zanov, both of which I discovered here on PA. It is truly a great resource for discovering new music. Best to you and have fun in your prog voyage, Robert

Hello Robert, I also like Pulsar, Ange, Zanov and Seven Reizh. I have been to an Alan Stivell concert more than 40 years ago (1974)! You can discover Alpha ralpha, Jean-Pierre Louveton and The great old ones (all listed in PA). And a gem not listed in PA: Serge Gainsbourg's Melody Nelson at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3C4AVbqyY8 Enjoy Pierre |
