[Progressive Rock] Post Your Prog Rock Playlists Here!

[Jazzwhatever]

Progressive rock has its roots in the U.K. and originates from psychedelic 60s rock. Bands added influences from jazz and classical composition techniques to their songs. Good examples are Emerson Lake & Palmer, Yes, King Crimson, Genesis & Pink Floyd.

Prog rock spread to other countries in Europe, also to Spain. I used this website http://www.progarchives.com/ to compile my playlist. Enjoy the selection!

@Cochè Thanks for sharing your list and for the kudos to my posts 🙂 

It would be great if you could pick the best track of every album you put in your playlist. It would make the list much more enjoyable! At the moment your playlist is too big to give good feedback on it. But anyway, you got a good music taste!

Many thanks for your advise. I'll take it into account next time. Cheers and keep on progging!

@Jazzwhatever great topic. I'm feeling inspired to do a Modern Prog rock band playlist with bands like Spocks Beard, Porcupine Tree etc. Also do you have a favorite Prog band? For me it's Yes and that has a lot to do with my Father first introducing  Prog to me via Yes.

[Jazzwhatever]

Sounds good, i don't know much about Modern Prog. Only know Tool a bit. So go ahead! 🙂 I have many favorites but ones that come to mind now are Focus (dutch) and The Soft Machine. Looking forward to your contrinution!

Putting this up here, as suggested. Thanks for the feedback @jazzwhatever

50 tracks that explore the boundaries of Progressive, Space Rock and Mellotron Jazz by the hands of greats such as Robert Fripp, Richard Wright, Rick Wakeman, and many other names not usually associated with the style. 'Hey, Listen' is a compilation of playlists meant to make you rethink genres.

This is my selection, give it a try!

[Jazzwhatever]

@darkmightywolf Thanks for sharing. Don't add full albums to a list, select the best tracks. Try to focus on 1 genre, now it's a bit of everything. A good playlist needs finetuning. I would start with song nr 3 as a opener, it sounds like an original crossover violin rock track.

Try to catch the attention of the listener, if you want to stand out with your playlist.

@Alvaropj87 opening with Steve Wilson is never a bad idea.

[Alvaropj87]

Hahaha yup. The raven that refused to sing is a freaking awesome album and Luminol is a great opener.

[Cochè]

Agree!
