I bought a clue. :)

Can anyone help me, please... how do I manage to have a YouTube file with image posted as opposed to just showing the URL? I need all the help I can get.

Having musicians from that caliber enter your band is like being uplifted by an ancient alien civilization.

Just wanted to share this obscure Chinese prog-album inspired by Pink Floyd. I propose we call this new genre chinkrock or ESLprog.

Album Description:
"1981" is a progressive rock album and also a science fiction story. It tells a series of stories of self-reflection and self-redemption in a highly civilized future where humanity faces an apocalyptic crisis. The music style is Progressive Rock, Art Rock, and Space Rock.

1. 骑士归来,Knights Return

2. 发现号,Discovery

3. 殿堂之光,Sanctuary

4. 文明,Civilization

5. 彩虹号飞船,Rainbow

6. 秘境,Mystery

I'm really still not sure what constitutes being prog rock, as I never really thought of ELO as prog but it seems like a lot of yall do. I'd be curious to know what your specific definition of what prog is, and what songs I've got here are or aren't progressive.

I had more ridiculous examples but I just think by and large sub genres can become quite silly. Anyways go listen to thick as a brick

ELO is definitely NOT prog, most of what they did was, as Jeff Lynne always happily admitted, trying to create music that he imagined The Beatles would have been making if they didn't break up.

I think a lot of people these days just slap the prog label on anything from the 70s that doesn't soundalike disco or Led Zeppelin.


More on topic, anyone who hasn't checked them out yet should give a listen to the original self-titled by Cherry Five, and then check out the non-soundtrack work done by them under their more famous name, Goblin. Roller is one hell of a great album, but DO NOT listen to Volo, it is cancer in auditory form.

The recent Cherry Five album is also quite good.
 
If you want an instant Krautrock collection, Internet Archive has you sorted. It's a little unwieldy to navigate, but there's over 1000 albums from hundreds of artists in there.

tbh I may have posted this before... please give me clocks if I have. I'm old
