Hello Prog Fans,

 

After two more years of intensive research, it is time to call a halt, and to present you with the results. Here is the first 2006 edition of the listing which includes a total of more than 3000 brillant bands. Forty years later, innumerable ''progressive'' groups would name these bands when laying claim to the "heritage" of Progressive Rock.

FEATURING :
o MINI-GUIDE (150 pages of essential PROG ROCK references) :
- Covering everything from the history and the complex development of this musical genre
- A selection of 30 most influential Prog Rock bands & their best albums
- A comprehensive A - Z’s listing of over 3000 Prog Rock bands each with a brief musical description

 

Have fun with the... ESSENTIAL MINI-GUIDE OF PROGRESSIVE ROCK.

 

... AND HAPPY DISCOVERIES!

Well, it is logic, everybody don't have space in the cover. I missed Camel and Rush instead Porcupine Tree, but there's no complain about it.

^ That would be my question as well... Confused Oh well, at least the other image is something else than the damn prism from DSOTM!
 
Other than that, a great effort to get this out there as there is a real shortage of prog literature! Clap

I'd love to get a copy of this!
But instead of putting two PF albums on the cover, why don't you replace one with a Roger Dean cover? He has been so hugely important in the cover art of prog.

There's a link to where you can order it on the front page.

I got mine on Monday, I've read a bit, it's pretty cool so far. Aside from some oddities (various editing errors, Mike Oldfield and Tangerine Dream not in the index of prog artists, everybody still seems to think Fragile came out in '72 and Octopus came out in '73, Hawkwind is a major band!?) there's nothing to complain about.
