sumyunguy 03.12.13	don't want want to rain on the prog parade, but apparently Peter Banks died today at 65. Shitty. RIP.

Jethro42 03.12.13	Thanks for the feature, Greg. @Dimor, cheers my friend. Progative indeed, Yankee. @Captain, I'm glad you can find a lot at your taste on here. P/ Thank you all.
Jethro42 03.13.13	Life would be incomplete without prog
akimbo 03.13.13	ever since i watched the live video of hocus pocus on youtube, i've been hooked on focus http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFDW9b_ejfI
Jethro42 03.13.13	Yes that video is so hilarous! Best version ever. Thanks to Nagrarok for showing that one.
AnimalsAsSummit 03.13.13	15 is wonderful
MeatSalad 03.13.13	gotta check some of this stuff out hard
CaptainHadouken 03.13.13	Gotic sounds legit.
CaptainHadouken 03.13.13	Fair enough. Always good to hear tasty stuff.
CaptainHadouken 03.13.13	Street Fighter is FTW, just any awesome Prog band to do a street fighter album. Sputnik is lacking captains.
MeatSalad 03.13.13	would bang
Keyblade 03.13.13	4 is great, they have such a rich discog...thought they would be more popular round here
Nagrarok 03.13.13	16, 17, 18 and 22 rule of course. Need to check out Strawbs in particular.
MeatSalad 03.13.13	yes you do
JamieTwort 03.13.13	Yeah Strawbs are amazing.
HSThomas 03.13.13	Three cheers for Anekdoten. Awesome list.
Dimor 03.13.13	Just listened through that Gotic album and it was really sweet. Need to check out some more of these aswell
foxblood 03.13.13	Premiata Forneria Marconi are amazing, i need to listen to their other albums. their first two albums have gorgeous covers and look like they rule
Keyblade 03.13.13	yeah PFM are awesome...i need to check their other albums too
TheNotrap 03.13.13	With Jethro around prog will never die. Sweet list and congrats for the featured.
Jethro42 03.13.13	Thanks for your kind words, Notrap, buddy. Thank you all for your numerous visits on this thread. @skelet; Curved Air have this in common with the list; they dont obtain much votes for their caliber. Here's a reminder; former Yes' guitarist passed away yesterday at 65 R.I.P. You can hear from him at #28
Jethro42 03.13.13	^Peter Banks, that is.
JamieTwort 03.13.13	I definitely need to check out 28.
Jethro42 03.13.13	27 and 29 are also for you, Jamie. Both are strongly influenced by the Canterbury scene.
JamieTwort 03.13.13	I seem to remeber hearing some of 29, which I seem to remember was really good. Never heard of 27, I'll add it to my list of albums to check out.
Jethro42 03.13.13	Cheers JT. For those who dig Genesis, check out 25 which is the former guitarist of Genesis. 7 is also widely influenced by the Gabriel era. 23 needs more love on Sputnik. They sound like ELP, but in a more light way.
JamieTwort 03.13.13	I have 25 on vinyl, great album.
beefshoes 03.13.13	Where's Gentle Giant??
Jethro42 03.13.13	Agreed with 9. As for Gentle Giant, their stunning live Playing the Fool only got 11 votes, so that particular album would fit on my 2nd list to come.
Jethro42 03.13.13	@Dimor, I'd suggest you to try 1 (very unique), 8 (Ayreon like, but more lite) and 9 (Gentle Giant like). Just listen to the link you want, and let me know what you think. p/
Jethro42 03.13.13	@Captain, ya right, and did you try the 2nd track? (Wunderschatze)
Jethro42 03.13.13	Aight then, I'll try that one.
Jethro42 03.13.13	Nice. And I need to reconsider my rating on Sommerabend. I might bump it up to a 4.5
JamieTwort 03.13.13	Listening to 6 now and it rules so far.
JamieTwort 03.13.13	Gonna listen to this one a few more times before I check out any of their ther stuff. Give it some time to grow.
DrGonzo1937 03.13.13	You're right there. I know none of these bands.
ProfessorVeerappan 03.13.13	crazy list will have to get back to get the search forward till then indeed echolyn renaissance and curved air mad bands ...
Jethro42 03.14.13	Try also Horslips, Strawbs, Peter Banks (R.I.P.), the tangent, supersister, Phideaux and Landberk among others...
Jethro42 03.14.13	Thanks sonic. If I were you I'd try 6. Here's the album in full; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Li7wJSpETpE 1 and 7 are also awesome.
Deathconscious 03.14.13	i thought 6 was pretty good. 7 is fucking awesome though.
Jethro42 03.14.13	We can only find 2 or 3 Dogma songs from youtube and there is so many more gems to hear from the cd.
Deathconscious 03.14.13	i havent heard any flower kings, would 4 be a good place to start?
Jethro42 03.14.13	My bad; here's the entire Dogma' album; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nc2buC0AJoE
Jethro42 03.14.13	@Adolf - Yes it is. 'Stardust we are' and 'Unfold the Future' would be a good start too. Dont miss 'Back in the World of Adventures' too.
Deathconscious 03.14.13	do you guys know if the s/t Dogma is worth checking out?
Jethro42 03.14.13	@Captain, I have a physical copy and I can assure you, I cannot get tired of that album. @Adolf; Yes you cant go wrong with Dogma. The self title is still more a la Genesis.
Jethro42 03.14.13	I dunno if you can find it at your local store. I bought it at an import material/ progressive rock store.
cagedescending 03.14.13	one day i'll plunder this list gotta finish covering the basics first tho
Jethro42 03.14.13	yes it's a mellow one. God I like their guitarist. The only 'weak' song is the last one but it still can be enjoyable. Rememberrence and Time are my 2 faves. Oh and the atmospheric and dramatic Valentine Song. I hope you can find the album somewhere, bro.
JamieTwort 03.14.13	You listened to 14 yet Captain?
JamieTwort 03.14.13	Ah yes I should probably up my rating.
JamieTwort 03.14.13	Yeah bro I know but I've been debating whether to 4.5 it for a while.
Calc 03.14.13	100!
KILL 03.15.13	damn sweet ive actually got like 8 of these i feel elite!
Jethro42 03.15.13	Listen to 1, 6, 14, 15 and 28, my friend.
KILL 03.15.13	will do
Friday13th 03.15.13	Love Neal Morse's Sola Scriptura. Best Christian prog. I've listened to Focus' Hamburger Concerto and that's some good stuff too. Honestly, though, most of this is just too mainstream. Where are the deep cuts like Dark Side of the Moon and Close to the Edge? haha
Deathconscious 03.15.13	15 is blowing my mind.
SmersH 03.15.13	bookmarked. such great stuff here, Jethro - thanks!
Jethro42 03.15.13	@Friday13th; Pink floyd and Yes wouldnt fit in; They have to many votes. This actual list only contains masterpieces of albums with only a little amount of ratings. @Adolf; I'm glad you're liking it. Maneige cant do wrong, so they deserve more love on Sputnik. @SmersH; Cheers man.
BigHans 03.15.13	pretty epic list man but wheres the metal
ButteryBiscuitBass 03.15.13	Jethro - Could add Gryphon to this list bro. Great list P/////////////////////
Jethro42 03.15.13	@Hans;Thanks a bunch, but the metal wasnt there when the prog train hit the road =] @Buttery, P/, but I'm not familiar with Gryphon. Do they have a masterpiece with a little amount of votes?
ButteryBiscuitBass 03.15.13	Captain beat me to it Jethro.
Jethro42 03.15.13	Ok so Gryphon could make it for my part II list to come. I just have to give it an appropriate listen before.
Jethro42 03.15.13	Aight Cap'n thanks a lot bro.
Jethro42 03.15.13	''Red Queen to Gryphon Three'' is better than I thought, but I could hardly give it a 4 and this kind of list needs a 4 at a minimum from me. But let's face it; I'm able to give it a 4, so the album might be a contender for my 2nd list.
Jethro42 03.15.13	both albums are similar in their ntentions, but I'm not exactly a fan of that kind of Celtic/classical approach, but Red Queen is more developed, less disjointed. Themes are more attractive.
SputnikSweetheart 03.16.13	Glad you included 19, even though I wish they were more popular and needn't be included. Ever heard of Banco del Mutuo Soccorso btw?
MeatSalad 03.16.13	has jethro ever heard of banco hahahahahahEAHAEHAHAHAHA
Jethro42 03.16.13	Darwin!
MeatSalad 03.16.13	Banco!
Jethro42 03.16.13	Jethro!
Jethro42 03.16.13	But seriously, Banco would easily fit on here. They're gonna be good for my 2nd list.
MeatSalad 03.16.13	pretty sure half of those comments are you cap lol
MeatSalad 03.21.13	checking hard
Jethro42 03.21.13	yes 5 rules. It reminds me of some Pulsar at some point.
MeatSalad 03.21.13	Grabbed 5 and 25, gonna jam em hard
Jethro42 03.21.13	5 is an excellent pick. Some simple sympho prog rock but well crafted. Anthony Phillips is more laid back prog folk. Great album. @Captain, yes I know the three albums they made. I like them all except the last one.
Jethro42 03.21.13	whoa I just noticed that I rated the las Wobbler at a 4.5...its more like a 3.5.... 4.5 was my very 1st impression.
JamieTwort 03.21.13	25 is beautiful.
Jethro42 03.23.13	@Nag, I could see you digging 1, 5, 6, 7 and 28 @Jamie, yes it is. I'd recommend it to any fans of Genesis' Trespass era.
eloimayano 10.27.13	Grosse liste; je connais pas tout, mais y'a beaucoup d'essentiels là dedans!
Jethro42 10.27.13	Je ne connais pas assez tes goûts musicaux pour te suggérer des albums en particulier. Tu peux toujours m'en énumérer quelques uns, si tu veux que je te dirige vers du similaire.
Jethro42 10.27.13	^Je suis d'accord. Hey, Captain, your French is very good! Do you speak it fluently or do you use Google Translator?
Friday13th 10.27.13	All the French I know comes from prog: Harmonium, "entre nous" (thanks Rush) and "raison d'etre" (thanks Queensryche).
Jethro42 10.27.13	You also got from Rush ''Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose'' (Circumstances) ''Jeux sans Frontières'' ''Games Without Frontiers'' from Peter Gabriel among others
Jethro42 10.27.13	That's pretty coo, Captain. :D I also use Google translator from time to time to chat or even to read reviews.
KILL 10.27.13	bonjouuuuuuu
Jethro42 10.27.13	I have to go by now, but do you know these; Atomship - The Crash of '47 Kingston Wall - Kingston Wall II Mahavishnu Orchestra - but I think you already know them... Screaming Headless Torsos - with maestro Jojo Mayer Nerve - with maestro Jojo Mayer Master Plan - Dave Weckl Chick Corea - Elektric band these comes at the top of my head
Jethro42 10.27.13	hello bye bye KILL, ya welcome, Captain l'ami!
Jethro42 10.27.13	Ah well!...I'll try to take it bro, but in real life I can be really boring.
eloimayano 11.13.13	2-4-8-15-22 sont pas mal dans mes favoris!
MO 11.13.13	fantastic list as usual fuckin 12,13,24 m/
Jethro42 11.13.13	@ eloimayano, tu t'arrêtes sur de bons choix. Essayes 1, 7, 24, 27 et 28 @MO Thanks, man. I could see you digging 1, 2 (if you dig King Crimson), 5, 11(if you dig Roy Harper and Jethro Tull), 15 (if you dig 24), 23 and 28.
Voivod 11.13.13	Jethro i just found out about this band in a local metal magazine, it says they are legit: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/bands/Arabs-In-Aspic/51984/
Jethro42 11.14.13	@Voivod, for some reason I can't listen to most of their songs on you tube but from what I've heard, it sounds good, thanks!
Hovse 10.17.15	very good prog list i reckon,jethro altho havent heard most of them so which albums of these u suggest that sound kinda like renaissance (symphonic prog era) and kc(free improvisation and jazz fusion eras) but kind of unique approach not just a rip off them? thanks in advance
Jethro42 10.17.15	1, 2, 15, 24 and 28 for KC ''related'' 17, 18, 20, 21 and 29 for Renaissance' similarities. And if you have the time, check out 5 and 6. I feel they could be up your alley. And you're welcome!
Hovse 10.17.15	thanks for the recommendations,added to this weekend jams!
