These are not exactly collaborations "between prog artists" but several ex Can-members teamed up with more modern (techno etc.) musicians on their later solo projects with generally awesome results, be it Holger Czukay & Dr. Walker, Irmin Schmidt & Kumo, Jaki Liebezeit & Burn Friedman, there are more. Also Irmin Schmidt did a charming progressive electronic album (Toy Planet) with Bruno Spoerri. The work of Holger Czukay with David Sylvian is somewhat better known in these quarters but probably still fits the "underappreciated" category, as does Holger's early 80s work with Conny Planck. Also Czukay and Liebezeit have some great stuff with The Edge from U2 and PIL's Jah Wobble.

Though that was probably meant for the other thread on weird projects!?

The title of this post made me think immediately of the touring band with David Sylvian around 1989--Mark Isham, David Torn, and, of course, Richard Barbieri and brother Steve Jansen.





but also Hall and Oates with Todd Rundgren and his Utopia band for the entire War Babies album:

Now we just need them to get together and do a Fripp & Eno startup sound for the next crappy version of Windows MS comes out with. Preferably an ambient one that lasts for fifteen minutes.

Are you sure that 15 minutes are enough for the booting time?

With the sh*tty Lenovo laptop I am currently using, it'd be about right.

I enjoyed Bob Fripp's collaboration with David Sylvian a great deal!  I'm not sure they ever got the appreciation they deserved, Bob's solo work was outstanding.  This may be my favorite....

Heck ... you need to get TRANCEFORMATION by Eberhard Schoenner ... all the members of THE POLICE play/song with him, more than once! And "Tranceformation" is a massively GREAT album, that will turn your head inside out about a few Gregorian Chants!

I like to joke ... in the opening of that album ... here comes the screaming preacher!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

I've never read that Fripp producing Gabriel (P.G. 2) was a good idea. Have seen a few articles where Gabriel is said to have been generally unhappy with the album. IMO, 2 gets ignored for the most part.

Tony Levin has had a few good ones. Bozzio, Levin, Stevens & Levin, Minnemann, Rudess are two that come to mind.  Liquid Tension Experiment is another.

I love the Jon and Vangelis team-up, and I always thought they were well appreciated. But the ratings here indicate a more lukewarm reception than I would have expected. Curious!
