Well, I guess it would take a Wallace the Prog-level Knobby Pwog Master to know. Thought this time around you might try to be more affable, but you couldn't Keep Up Appearances for long at all.

Pathetic.
Most of these submissions are not released in '67 and others are not inherently prog. |

Hi, All of these were "hits" in the AM radio ... with one really bad issue ... the Doors' song that was played was a cut up version of the original ... which the Madison main FM station (the UW's at first!!!) made sure everyone knew about the long song, which got folks to dump the single and go get the album. I think someone joked that this was the day a number one song on the AM radio ended up 999th on the next day! JA's piece was huge ... though many folks really thought the lyrics were a bit off base ... many wondered if it was pro or against the drugs ... and even cynical at that!

1967 was a very good year for music - almost as good as 1968.

Having looked through all of the excellent listings, I think yours is the best Now That's What I Call Prog compilation album of all, which is surely destined to be a million-seller, whereas my album will no doubt end up being sold for a knock-down price at a car boot sale.

Good choice! I wish I'd included Buffalo Springfield in my list too. Broken Arrow has more changes of tempo and time signature than your average prog classic. |

Sorry, I misled you. I should have said "a particular year" in the intro instead of "any particular year". I've altered it now.

^ I took the easy option by just listing the artists in alphabetical order.

This is a really cool idea! Honestly, the hard part isn't picking out the songs but putting them in an order that would make sense as a properly paced track list if this were an actual compilation
1. Scott Walker - Mathilde 2. The Rolling Stones - She's A Rainbow 3. H.P. Lovecraft - The White Ship 4. The Nice - Rondo 5. The Doors - Light My Fire 6. Procol Harum - Conquistador 7. The Beach Boys - Good Vibrations 8. Miles Davis - Dolores 9. The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Little Wing 10. The Mothers Of Invention - Brown Shoes Don't Make It 11. The Beatles - Getting Better 12. The Who - I Can See For Miles 13. Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit 14. Pink Floyd - Interstellar Overdrive 15. The Moody Blues - Nights In White Satin Edited by Mirakaze - February 09 2024 at 13:56 |

Hi,
The only thing that needs to be said, is that fans/folks today do not realize how huge so many of these became because of the new FM signal (STEREO!!!!!) ... remember that none of them were played on regular AM radio (MONO!!!!!), which made a huge difference for the "new music" ... That's not to say that the things on AM radio were not good, there were a few, but the real headline was the new music that FM radio showcased ... and pretty much none of it was played on AM radio at all which was about the numbers ... like some around here! Then, in 1967 and 1968, all of this music was NEW and there were no numbers whatsoever ... and it should tell you something about the art and the music ... that didn't need numbers to get heard! The next "scene" for music, won't need the numbers either ... and hopefully it will bring a new day, a new sound and a new person to enjoy the music, instead of being stuck on the thing that has hurt the music most in the past 30/40 years.
