In the topographic oceans of prog-rock, there's always been a few precious gems that have remained hidden from view just below the waves. Well, this blog will hopefully change all that by featuring an A-Z list of long-lost album treasures from the excellent Prog Line channel on YouTube. I'll include a link to a full album here each day and also feature a track from each album if it's available as well as giving a PA star rating to every album along the way. This could be a wild ride, so fasten your seat belts and get ready for a journey to the centre of the prog universe. Smile

A one-off album hammered out on the Anvil of classic Krautrock. Is it psychedelic or progressive? Who cares!? Either way, it's great music in the Spirit of a well-known American band,  so why not Taste and Try it for yourself......

Blue Sunshine is the second of three Captain Ilor albums, with the title of their first album being unrepeatable  Censored and their third album being unpronounceable. Embarrassed

The second of two outstanding albums from this British band, named after the unfaithful lover of Greek mythology, but there's nothing faithless about Cressida. This is classic Symphonic Prog in the style of Fantasy, Beggars' Opera, Circus, Fruupp, Gracious and Spring - similar British prog bands just below the radar who all deserved greater recognition. Hug

The hills are alive with the sound of Tangerine Dream, or something like that. This is sequencer-driven heaven from Austria for fans of Tangerine Dream, and on the subject of Insane Aphorisms, how about "The child is father to the man" Wacko

4 stars 1975: ENGLAND - The Imperial Hotel (Symphonic Prog • United Kingdom) -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLZasy5KV0g" rel="nofollow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLZasy5KV0g

England, forever England: a Symphonic Prog band from the golden era of British prog, who play music that's as grand and imposing as THE IMPERIAL HOTEL in the West End of London. England sound as English as the GARDEN SHED at the bottom of an English country garden. Incidentally, the cover of their 1977 GARDEN SHED album was a humorous ironic reference to the Golden Shred brand of marmalade. England have often been compared to Yes, and deservedly so, when you hear their symphonic majesty in all of its musical pomp and splendour. England were also the clear winners in the first of my recent Prog Britannia polls. They released an archive mid-1970's collection of unreleased songs in 1997, titled THE LAST OF THE JUBBLIES and they made a comeback tour of Japan in 2006, which subsequently became the LIVE IN JAPAN: KIKIMIMI album. England's latest album, BOX OF CIRCLES, was released as recently as 2018. Just to confuse matters, there was also a completely unrelated English band going by the name of England, who released a self-titled album of Jazz-Rock in 1976, and on a side note, a close musical friend of mine was the sound engineer for England's KIKIMIMI tour of Japan. Smile
