Post your favourite non prog band. For me... probably Dire Straits. Which is what I'm in.
What say you??

Sanatana, without a doubt. I have more albums by Santana than any other band - about 20 so far.

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I observed before. It can be much like that with music for me; immersed in experiencing the moment.

Santana are actually in PA under Jazz Rock/Fusion. |

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Probably the Beatles, even thought they are listed here as proto-prog.
Also, Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers, Dire Straits, Stones, Clapton. Many Others...

If we are excluding Prog Related and Proto-Prog, then I suppose my favourite non-prog (not in PA) artist would be Robin Trower. But when it comes to non-prog, I operate better at the album level, in which case my favourite non-prog album is Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik.

I'll go with Nik Bartsch's Ronin, Swiss minimalist modern jazz combo. Seen them a few times live and love everything they've released.

In my rebel youth I got into punk/goth. Accordingly a couple of my favourites are still Bauhaus and Killing Joke

very hard to pick just one band, non-prog can mean a lot of things - metal, jazz, rock, blues etc ?!

Difficult to choose just one band, but I'll go for Siouxsie & the Banshees.

Thanks! That's great news! I never knew Santana were in ProgArchives.  I guess I'll have to choose another band now. The Moody Blues would have been my second choice - if they weren't in ProgArchives.

not band but solo artist who gives solo concerts as well as concerts with a band: Barbara Dennerlein. she is actually my favorite musician period and the whole family (my wife Friede, my sister Bea and our daughters Alice and Dorothy) will again attend one of her concerts in a bit more than 2 weeks (Aug 23rd). here an example of her music (watch her left foot) by the way: Keith Emerson was a big fan of her Edited by BaldJean - August 04 2020 at 05:20 |

Sorry, got to add Cream and the Who. I used to love them... now, not so much, but defining bands for hard rock. I used to be into loads of genres, like hard rock, blues, pop, glam etc., but that was before I discovered Genesis - sadly long after their heyday.

I didn't realise The Zombies had come back from the Dead, but I just noticed they released an album in the year 2000 titled "R.I.P."
