Well known, but The Moody Blues, Alan Parsons, and David Bowie are all on that line.

The Tourists - Luminous Basement (1980) The third and final album of Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart's pre-Eurythmics band has quite a few proggy moments - such a shame that it was somewhat overlooked. Possibly the best proggy track... This is actually a non-album b-side which is also quite interesting. Edited by Progishness - December 06 2021 at 08:08 |

I am shocked to see Nogbad_The_Bad posting in pop progressive thread. Ian - I thought you are more of a RIO/Avant-prog enthusiast. XTC is pretty good choice. I watched recently Thyme's Jones interview. He mentioned that "The Why Album", Cheer-Accident pop prog album was influenced by XTC. What else? Some of 10cc and Supertramp songs are both: pop-y and prog-y at the same time. How about early Talk Talk? My all-time favorite pop progressive song is "Golden Brown" by the Stranglers. I always considered Renaissance and Curved Air (at least some of their albums) to be part of pop progressive subgenre. |

Tears for Fears would be another example of Progressive Pop?
