Author Topic: shoot me some good prog rock albums  (Read 628 times)

I've been recently getting into prog rock if you couldn't tell from all the times I've praised Genesis and Yes and talked about Rush and basically the complexity of it all combined with the sound quality is amazing

I've been looking at King Crimson and ELP a bit (not much) but IDK what do you think

fire away

im a poser and dont really listen to any prog aside from rush : (


Brain Salad Surgery by ELP ( karn evil 9 is the big thing)
literally every King Crimson album
Gentle Knife and Wobbler are some very good recent prog bands
Argus by wishbone ash
Frank Zappa has good prog and some jazz fusion but he has a stuffton of albums. I suggest Hot Rats, Apostrophe', Joe's Garage maybe, Waka/Jawaka and Grand Wazoo.
Pink Floyd is good prog, but if you want proggiest floyd I suggest Meddle and Animals (if you havent already listened to 'em)
Kansas is good prog. I suggest Leftoverture and Two for the Show, because the latter is basically a live "best of" album
uhhjhg i'll think of more Later. At a later time.

idk if this counts as progressive rock but they lean a little more towards bluesy type stuff

really good imo
