What about Frank Marino? An overlooked guitarist/songwriter  who has more than paid his dues. Check out some of his mid seventies albums.

Good to hear about him. Interesting topic.

On Marino's and Mahogany Rush's 70s records you can hear hard blues, psychedelic and jazz rock fusion.
You can hear mellotron too.

Er, my rememberance of what I heard from him is quite hazy, but I think to remember some hard-rock music that didn't sound "progressive" to my ears.
Just let me rent some CDs at my library in the next days...

I used to like this band a lot in the Eighties, when my favourite radio station used to play their music a lot. However, I've never associated them with progressive rock, but rather with bluesy hard rock (which is a very good thing in my book).

Try these:

- Tales of the Unexpected (fromt the self titled album - 1979)

hard blues + synth + jazz (in a word: great!)




- IV... (The Emperor) (from the IV album - 1976)

string-mellotron, acoustic and electric guitar for a hard blues tinged with symphonic flavour and sparse eastern colours




... more to come

- the beautiful "Strange Universe" from the self titled record (1975)

epic hard psych/blues with synth (another great number IMO!)

Mahogany Rush's covers are very prog:


1) The band's debut Maxoom (1973)


2) Child of the Novelty (1974)


3) Strange Universe from 1975
