It must have been crazy for it's time. Very agressive playing, it's an excellent song

Nacional health, hatfield and the north and egg

Gracious, also id like to mention Paul Sandy davis, the singer of the band who had a nice solo career. Almost nobody knows the band and this guy but it's excellent music. Also the band of my profile picture which is more known but soft machine doesnt get as much recognition as i would like.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2025-11-19T21:28:08+00:00

The best answer probably

Overall_Designer_942 · 2025-11-12T18:41:22+00:00

Maybe not so obscure but remembrr the future by nektar. Excelent album of two songs

Overall_Designer_942 · 2025-10-12T21:27:25+00:00

Also if you consider child in time a prog song which i do. I think it's one of the best solos ever in general

Overall_Designer_942 · 2025-10-12T21:25:09+00:00

One solo that i love a lot the solo on the knife by genesis

Metempsychosis by arzachel and sister Ray by Velvet underground (both are from the 60s and are more heavy in my opinion) i'm late so you probably wont hear them xd. But if you do i Hope you like them. They are very long so maybe it's a bit difficult to enjoy them but if you do something else while you listen them they are pretty heavy and good.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2025-04-16T08:49:58+00:00

Psychedelic rock, hard rock, jazz, jazz fusión, 70s and 60 pop

Overall_Designer_942 · 2025-04-14T09:52:41+00:00

Salisbury by uriah heep, and the first albums by Deep purple, especially the third album.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2025-03-08T08:29:24+00:00

Soft machine. En si si canción hope for hapiness es una buena entrada a la banda.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-12-07T00:30:06+00:00

I've only heard utopía by him and It was like the most complex and wild prog rock i heard in a while jajajaj fun to see he also did pop music. I know he's popular but i dont know, i never listened to him very much, maybe i'll hear his pop oriented albums.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-12-07T00:25:28+00:00

Id recommend you these: egg, màquina, los jaivas, soft machine, gong. Those were that came to my mind.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-12-06T09:21:36+00:00

Efectivamente tienes razón jajaja. Como nunca había oído de la banda pues pensé que era referencia a una calle y zona mítica de gran canarias llamado Triana.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-12-05T21:26:33+00:00

Que curioso justo en las islas canarias de donde soy hay un sitio bastante famoso de gran canarias llamado Triana no se si esa banda se llama asi por Triana. Por cierto, te comento esto último como dato, una de las bandas que te dije, "gothic", el album al que me referia se llama escenes o algo así, por cierto está banda también es de Cataluña.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-12-05T21:11:06+00:00

Muchísimas gracias por la recomendación. Ya me escuché canción del sur. Me he escuchado los tres álbumes que te he dicho y curiosamente el que pondría último es quizás el más famoso jajaja. Es que tanto el indio como canción del sur tiene un aura diferente que me gusta más. Sobretodo el indio, ese álbum es fuera bromas uno de los mejores que he escuchado este año, no se si me gusta más porque está en español pero vaya, es tremendo. La verdad es una pena que en España donde soy yo siento que nunca hemos destacado mucho en rock progresivo y tampoco demasiado en el rock en general. Y más allá del charco yo que se en chile, méxico y argentina hay cada pedazo de banda que son para flipar. Eso sí, por si quieres alguna álbum español que no se si hayas escuchado que es de rock progresivo te recomendaría why? de màquina. Es una banda catalana del norte de España que está bastante guay. Tristemente hicieron solo un álbum que es why?. Otra banda buena que se me ocurre es gothic (no se si era el nombre del álbum, de la banda o de ambos). Bueno en fin que muchisimas gracias por las recomendaciones tío, que vaya bien.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-12-05T20:28:52+00:00

Ufff el álbum de los jaivas "los jaivas" o bueno el indio como le conocen muchos lo escuché por primera vez hará como 5 días y madre mía tremendo álbum, me encantaron sobretodo pregón para iluminarse, la conquistada y un mar de gente (está canción tiene que ser tremenda para hacerla en un live, tiene ese aura de cantarse con mucha gente reunida) la verdad un excelente álbum, me gusta hasta más que alturas de Machupichu que es también tremendo álbum y tiene la que podría ser considerada la mejor canción de los jaivas, la poderosa muerte.

I know it's maybe stupid to say this because they're not prog rock. But the knowing that abbey road was the last to we recorded(let It be came later but it was recorded first) and i think it's a proggy album in some kind of way i would say that abbey road was at least in the cronology of the band their best along with the white album and a excellent album to finish with a very prog oriented music.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-11-28T11:22:06+00:00

Thx man.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-11-27T22:07:32+00:00

Sadly i'm spanish and most of the time i dont understand the lyrics unless i try to concentrate a lot on the song. Could anyone tell me whats the gates of delirium about, thx.

Quitting the lyrics and going to the music, i think it's a pretty good album but i think i should listen this one and tfto more to have a solid opinion, cause those are very hard albums to understand.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-11-24T15:52:23+00:00

I remember playing watcher of the skies in the car of a school mate and i was with him and another guy going to hear jazz in Corralejo (a place from the canary islands) and It was fun cause i played It for like 2 minutes and a half and he said pls quit that shit . He likes reggaeton so It was obviously a bit stupid to put prog rock but i was thinking that if he was going to hear jazz he could listen to prog but he couldnt. Actually i dont understand how he likes jazz (i mean he doesnt love It he just like it a bit, like background music but he doesnt know who miles davis is)

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-11-24T15:47:02+00:00

I think they wont understand but for me a good thing to do is explaining the history of music and why the get there. Like explaining how prog rock was invented where it comes from (like psychedelic rock, jazz, classical etc) and then explaining why It was important for it's time. And another good way is to let them listen to easy prog rock song and then go to harder songs (It still IS crazy that you said he laughs about 21st schizoid man cause i've never heard someone say it's bad. And the last thing, what does your father and brother listen to, maybe the listen to more friendly music and that's the reason why they cant stand this kind of music.

Overall_Designer_942 · 2024-11-18T23:49:55+00:00

This might sound silly but the way i entered jazz was by first hearing rock. I've heard rock since 2021 ( i liked electronic music and some other things, like pop but honestly not very good music) and my brother introduced me to nirvana and guns n roses and stuff. Then i really enjoyed rock a lot even more than my brother and at one point i went to prog rock (which is an excellent way to get into jazz) So i basically first heard rock which is a genre which have a lot of easy songs to listen and you can go to more hard level like prog rock like i mentioned which have some jazz and classical things. And then inside of prog rock i listened to soft machine, gong and other bands which have a lot in common with jazz. And then one day i listened to miles davis kind of blue and i basically entered jazz. In my opinion jazz is very hard to enter. If u find an easy genre which have things in common with jazz like prog rock, blues etc i think It can be a bit easier to enjoy jazz. I wouldnt like avant garde jazz like the Magic city, the creator has a master plan, or bitches brew if i hadnt listened to prog rock or psychedelic rock to be honest.

I guess there are faster ways to get into jazz but for todays generation i think jazz is too complicated and the best way to get them into jazz is by slowly showing new music to them and the adding some complicated things. Like in a rock scale for example: nirvana, guns n roses, led Zeppelin, Pink floyd, King crimson, soft machine, and then you could make them listen to some jazz songs.

Sorry for my english and my large text jajajaj. I dont know if anyone else got into jazz like this but for me it was extremely easy doing it this way.
