Previewing some recent recommendations in advance of camp Friday purchases. This is so lush and atmospheric, definitely going in the shopping cart.

Now watching “Prog Takes-Modern Prog is better than Classic Prog”

My take…
Classic Prog
✅ Pioneering
✅ Accessibility
✅ Longer Shelf Life
✅ Iconic Artwork

Modern Prog
✅ Production Values
✅ Technical Proficiency
✅ Sharper Live Shows
✅ Variety of Artists/Styles

What say you?

Not a huge fan of the thin-sounding Ovation guitars he was using around this time, but the performances are still incredible.

Wondering if this is harbinger of the next deluxe bookset…seems like an obvious choice to include in that. But then again, why would they be gifting it away now? Not complaining.

This box set of early Tangerine Dream records is punctuated by the amazing Green Desert (recorded 1973) which didn’t get a proper release til this box was produced (1985).
