Filmed live in Katowice, Poland in 2007, when the band opened for Clive Nolan's staging of Caamora. This features material drawn from his Mother's Ruin album as well as Jabberwocky and Hound Of The Baskervilles. This is the deluxe edition that comes...

Believe it or not this is where it all began for me. After coming home from school one day I saw Rick Wakeman on the Mike Douglas show. He was this odd looking guy with long blonde hair and a flowing cape to match. He had an arsenal of keyboards mak...

I really enjoyed Out There but this time Mr. Wakeman has really stepped up his game and come up with a brilliant effort. The premise of Retro is to exclusively use all of Rick's old analog keyboards. Rick is squeezing sounds out of his keys like we h...

Ricks other son shows off his AOR side recording an album that would easily appeal to fans of Asia. Not my bag maybe yours?

"Formed in Mönchengladbach by classically trained art student Jürgen Dollase in autumn 1971 as Blitzkrieg, with an international cast of: American Bill Barone, Dutchman Jerry Berkers, and local friend Harald Grosskopf. After only a couple of concerts, ...

"Strongly inspired by the likes of Quicksilver Messenger Service, Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead, etc., the Berlin band Walpurgis hit blues rock and West Coast American styles against space music reasonably successfully. On their sole album QUEEN OF...

Who would have expected to see a major reinterest in thrash metal these days? Los Angeles revivalists Warbringer are leading the charge with their debut War Without End. The band "borrows" inspiration for thrash stalwarts Exodus, Slayer, Nuclear Assa...

First of two fine albums cut for Vertigo from this British progressive hard rock band formed by Nick Simper upon his departure from Deep Purple. The band featured a similar sound although a bit darker lending comparisons to Black Sabbath and Black Wido..

Canadian power metal band serving it up with an 80s style. This is pure US-sounding metal. Nothing slick about it. Dave Ellefson guests on three tracks and Ralph Santolla appears one one tune.

First solo album from Children Of Bodom keyboardist Janne Warman. It features a variety of "name"' musicians - Jari Kainulainen (Stratovarius), Roope Latvala (Sinergy), Kimberly Goss (Sinergry), Mirka Rantanen (Tunnelvision) as well as COB guitarist S...

Cosmic Farm is a new jam band/fusion supergroup featuring Rob Wasserman (upright bass), Craig Erickson (guitars), T. Lavitz (keyboards), and Jeff Sipe (drums).

Italian band formerly known at The Night Watch now reconstituted with a new lineup. Ghost sounds so much like Genesis they might as well call themselves Genesis. Folks, this is a total clone job that sounds like outtakes from Nursery Cryme or Foxtro...

This is getting ridiculous. These guys are 3 for 3 (OK 4 for 4 if you consider The Nightwatch). Killer old school progressive rock steeped deeply in the tradition of Gabriel-era Genesis. Simone Rossetti once again does a wonderful job of emulating t...

"Vintersörg mainman Mr V returns with his second album “Imaginative” under the Waterclime name following on from 2006’s “The Astral Factor” (Lion Music). Once again the basis lies in symphonic and progressive rock but it is also spiced up with some jaz...

Originally reissued by Musea, this title has been out of print for some years. Long considered one of the top rarities from their native Belgium, Waterloo recorded this album in 1970. That was the "proto-prog" period in which bands were getting more ...

"Roger Waters' second solo album is yet another conceptual narrative, one that tells the tale of a wheelchair-bound boy who tries to halt the threat of nuclear war through his use of the HAM radio. The story line isn't held together as tightly as his f...

24 bit remastered edition of the first solo album from Curved Air violinist Darryl Way. Recorded in 1978, it was Way's attempt at a serious classical composition. He couldn't afford an actual orchestra so he enlisted Curved Air bandmate Francis Monkm...

The band's second album was also recorded in 1973. There is definitely more interplay between Way's violin and Etheridge's blazing guitar leads. Where as the first album seemed to let Way and Etheridge have their own space to solo, the interaction be...

"Formed in 1993, WAYLANDER released their debut demo, Once Upon An Era, in early 1995. Mixing Irish folk music with extreme Metal, Waylander were soon dubbed Folk, Celtic and Pagan Metal. In 1996, with the addition of a full time tin-whistle player, Wa...

First album from this British ensemble that later on evolved into something far more interesting. Originally released in 1968, this featured a mixture of psych, jazz, and pop. Nothing to die over.

"The lilypad suite is a collection of songs inspired by the struggle of a young girl to come to terms with the absence of her father.

The character of “Lilypad” is an amalgam of several people who, through the years, have shared with me the s.

New solo album from the former bassist of The Dregs. Lineup is a who's who of contemporary prog chopmeisters: Rod Morgenstein, Jonathan Mover, Mike Portnoy on drums; Toshi Iseda, Mike Keneally on guitars; Jens Johansson, T Lavitz, Kit Watkins on keys....
