what about prog - reggae?? have anyone hear something that can be described as that?? There is a band here in Peru called Bareto, that mix reggae with some kind of traditional music and with jazzy elements, but i dont know if they can be called proggressive, it is good stuff though. Another peruvian band, Cimarrones, that plays progressive folk (afro peruvian folk) has couple reggae songs, but not with much prog elements. so... prog - reggae anyone??

I'd be really interested to hear a band doing that.

Sting has a tune called 'Love is Stronger Than Justice' that is essentially a country tune with verses in 7/4 time, and it seems to complement the song.  I'm not saying this is a prog-style tune, but it shows that quirky alterations (such as non-standard time signatures) can add a different slant to a musical genre, and perhaps for the better.

So if anyone knows of any Country Prog bands out there, I'd love to give them a listen....



Wilco have a strong prog ethic in the way they write and arrange their material. It's great stuff.
More like country-rock with prog sensibilities.

The closest I've ever heard to that is New Hampshire's "Dreadnaught"
 
People are puzzled why I don't dig the Stones, well, I listened to the Stones, I tried, and I tried, and I tried, and--I Can't Get No Satisfaction!
