I would say most definitely from this point of view.

In-f_cking-deed Olav. This track sounds like quite good intro to some Symphonic album from 70s. Uzbek Prog should be encouraged more, so I would like to see them here. 

And certainly would like to hear more, if only it was possible.

There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

The problem is that we don't have more info

- Only one song
- No info of the album
- No website
- No Prog site has them

Honestly we can't work with that.

As a fact there's some info about them:

Quote We did a show with a Uzbek pop band named Sado (“Echo” in Uzbek). The band is led by Vladimir Vladimirovitch Vladimirov, a very talented musician my husband met during his visit to Tashkent. The band played pop, rock and ethnic music. 


Popsike.com mentions them:

Quote

  USSR GROUP              

        UNIQUE ALBUM GROUP

          "TASHKENT LEGEND" 

          UZBEKISTAN FOLK PROG MUG

                         FUNK ENSEMBLE

Uzbekistan super rare pop    

Prog folk funk with original composition



Being that is considered a Prog Folk / Pop Folk band, it's hard to take the risk

I managed to get hold of the rest of the album, and it is indeed radically different from the one extremely promising track on YouTube. A shame really, if the album had continued as it started it would have been a very interesting experience.
But the rest of it is some kind of art pop/art folk hybrid. I've taken it into Crossover for a check. Then we'll see.

Heard the album and received similar comments from YAM YAM.

Except the first song, it's EUROVISION styled music, more or less in the vein of James last Orchestra.

IMO not even Prog Related

...which is why we evaluate whole albums only. Posted the initial vid with a question mark to it in case others knew more about this band - until I managed to get hold of the album myself. Extremely promising start to it as said, and that prologue will be given quite a few plays by me no matter the state of the art (or not) for the rest of this production.

Just in case, we always evaluate.

This is POP Folk, not Prog or even Prog Related IMO

But then again Iván, you are known to be quite strict when it comes to evaluating music. Many of artists you deemed not even Prog-Related are now on the site Wink

I think they could stand a chance. Of course, it's only IMO.

¿Have you heard the rest of the album Marty?

Crossover has rejected Chetarca, who IMO are far closer ton Prog than this guys, so by those standards I believe SADO doesn't have a chance,
