Thanks for having me on again!
A few live hiccups that I noticed I mistakenly said:
James came down from Canada 🇨🇦 (not Japan…I have no idea why I said that! 😜🤷🏻♂️) and also - yes I do realize it is Chester Thompson that’s on Zappa’s Roxy & Elsewhere, not Aynsley Dunbar as I mentioned…MP slip of the tongue! 👅
Haha- Why was Japan on your mind? Because it's the coolest country on the planet? 🙂
Apostrophe is pure genius by the greatest artist of them all.
I was expecting you would say Canada and then when you said Japan I thought "Oh, didn't knew James lived in Japan now. DT must be making good money". lol
And Supertramp are not an American band !
Awesome! MP is always so knowledgeable and just a fan like the rest of us. ❤️🔥
And fun to have on.
Absolutely! ❤️🔥
Great show and Mike Portnoy could be on every show...
We agree.
I may be a bit of a prog nerd but I'm all in for a KISS Wheel, bring it on!
Happy to see another episode with Mr. Portnoy, such a nice fella and love listening to him talking music.
I was one o' those lucky guys in the right place at the right time...Houston, Texas January 17, 1975...'n witnessed Genesis perform The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway live in it's entirety. I hadn't heard the album yet so it was fascinatin' 'n mind blowin' to see this musical story unfold. Without a doubt one o' the greatest live performances I've experienced. Tell you!
Lamb Lies Down still my favorite Genesis album
Great show guys! My only claim to fame - I'm in the audience for the second show of 'Journey to the Centre of the Earth' at the Royal Festival Hall and therefore on the record!!! I had just moved to London a couple of weeks earlier and didn't have a ticket. I waited outside for the whole of the first show and got lucky when a lady offered me a spare ticket for the second show at face value. Such an experience! And I saw Rick do the extended whole 'Journey' piece in Manchester back in February with his smaller band, with Steve Marriot's daughter Molly on vocals. Absolutely superb!
Very cool!
That’s fantastic! I saw the new version in the Royal Albert Hall and then the recent version in the London Palladium

Premiata Forneria Marconi - L'Isola Di Niente

Yeah come Prog Report when is the Barry Manilow Wheel of Prog coming?????
🤣
@@MrGnb123 killer record though, It's a Miracle is a prog classic, same with Hotcakes
When Mike said not many bands 1rst album show them in full glory except King Crimson, I would add Camel to the list. I this their first album is simply flawless like the other 3 that followed.
I saw Zappa Plays Zappa on a Dream Theater tour, and honestly, that was my true introduction to Zappa music. It made me really appreciate how much great stuff he had
1974 Was A Splendid Year...Splendid Memories Indeed...
Crime of the Century was my introduction to Prog back in '75 which led me to Pink Floyd and King Crimson shorlly thereafter.
Status Quo’s “Quo” album with the iconic cover artwork. This was Quo’s heaviest album
Killer album!
Always cool seeing Portnoy deliver some musical knowledge.
I was there in 82 at Milton Keynes :-)
Cool seeing Mike being up Kiss.

The first two Genesis albums with Phil Collins as the singer are very Proggy to be fair, it is really with Hackett's departure that the styles changed
Absolutely
After Hackett left Genesis got wayyy to radio friendly
On board with Crime of the Century. The Rick Davies songs draw me in hard.
Totally.
MP mentioned Sumpertramp as American prog. British - all British. Sub in Starcastle. :^)
Gentle Giant are best on double live album . A legendary great album
Renaissance: Turn of the Cards.
Indeed...
Portnoy!!!!
Scot!
Great fun gents. Mike is such an enthusiast of music that he ignites everything he participates in.
Thanks!
Best album of the year: Genesis' Lamb. However, my favorite from the band is Foxtrot.
Many would agree with that.
I'd add Scorpions - Fly to the rainbow. Cool record for a young german band
Man I really hope Portnoy stays home when they're tracking vocals. One of the reasons why Dramatic turn sounded so fresh was because it didn't have his voice all over it dragging James' down.
Love this! Especially the bit where it went from Queen to ELO to Keane to Deep Purple to Rush and back to Queen again!
Yes!!
Mike portnoy its a Bible of music...
He definitely knows a lot
I would say encyclopaedia
Relayer/YES...
A thoroughly good watch and interesting to see what made the list. 🙌🏻
Yeah I liked hearing the comments about journey to centre of earth being absolutely everywhere and that it was released so close to the yes release. Gates of delirium is soooooooo good.
But I was quite surprised that GG was not on many of your radars 😱… power and the glory is 🔥🙌🏻
I’d just assumed that all of us prog geeks adored GG. Well that’s the thing with music taste, we all have our own likes 😊
I might be confused on the format of the show, but will this ever appear as a podcast episode? I find it much easier to digest that way
My favorite album from 1974 is the self-titled Novos Baianos album. Such a great record that still blows my mind.
PS.: Loved the Keane shoutout, such a great band
Will have to check that out
A brazilian classic indeed !
Surprised that no one made any reference to Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Welcome Back, My Friends, to the Show that Never Ends ~ Ladies and Gentlemen ~ Emerson, Lake & Palmer. Epic album that reached #4 in the US Charts. Incredible setlist and performance. Also turned out to be ELP's swansong which is very sad to think about. :(
Focus was on studio albums
Ommadawn by Mike Oldfield not only the greatest prog album but greatest album period literally ever came out in 1975 tho (obviously just my opinion)
Great episode in any case :)
I think Portnoy and Pete from Sea of Tranquility are the kings of having good taste in music as far as people with a following I know
Also I couldnt quite catch the name of the guy who says when dream and day is the best one? Its also my fave BY FAR. whoever he is hes a legend
The elder is the KISS prog album to discuss
Can’t wait to see the Kiss Wheel of Rock
It's gonna happen one day!
I didn't think my favorite band Keane would be mentioned on this video.
We always try to surprise. 😀
Burn a fantastic album and to me the beginning of Whitesnake
46:00 KISS still play these songs live....(too)
Pity Eddie Kramer didin't produce all of them
Dig Mike's t-shirt :)
KISS debut is absolute 🔥. Like Roy I was very young when I discovered KISS in 1977. They were my start to Rock and Metal and without them I’d have never made my way to anything Progressive. Super important debut anyway you cut it.
Right on!
Great lists. Of course a commonly/sadly overlooked gem also celebrating its 50th Anniversary:
Jerry Goodman and Jan Hammer - Like Children
Yes canceled the show , at least in Oslo last year for an unknown reason. I saw them during the yessong days
All Supertramp albums have a mix of Rick and Roger songs. From interviews they’ve both given, there was give and take in the studio but they wrote songs on their own. Rick says Crime was the band’s artistic peak and Breakfast in America the commercial peak.
That's about right
MP should have a V as his middle initial!
still waiting for The Flower Kings Wheel of Prog with MP
That would be cool!
Awesome episode! 53:00 yep Scenes from a Memory is #29
Also to any Queen II fans reading, please check out my Sir Brian May-approved cover of "The Fairy Feller's Master Stroke"!

Nice seeing you around Mike! What are your favorite 1974 albums besides the classical Queen releases?
Thanks!
I wanted a prog reunion for Supertramp. Never happened.
sadly it did not
First show SHOULD HAVE BEEN at Berkley in Boston where it all began! Should have done an "escape from the studio" US summer tour! BIG management mistake and opportunity missed!
King Crimson's Starless & Bible Black not listed, along with Henry Cow's Unrest, Roxy Music's Country Life, Steely Dan's Pretzel Logic & Bowie's Diamond Dogs just to name a few, yet the first Kiss record is mentioned on a prog listing? Lists like this are autobiographical. Pretty good list, otherwise.
Big fan of MP and I dig listening to your guys' stuff, but there's something really disappointing about glossing over Camel like they're just kinda whatever and then immediately afterwards gushing about Kiss on a prog podcast lol. Really a disproportionate amount of classic rock focus for a prog rundown, especially for 74 of all years when there's no shortage of iconic prog releases that could take the slots of those less proggy mentions. But all the same, it's always fun to hear some good communal music geekout sessions so props there.
Yeah I can see that. But we have to be honest about who we are and what we like. The truth is Mike and Roie grew up Kiss fans and Camel wasn't on the radar as much. But great band nevertheless.
How do you pass over mentioning Jethro Tull's War Child?
We did have it on our list but just missed the cut for the podcast.
@@progreport Uh-huh. Right.......
@@michaellord9745 🤷♂
The Lamb is what separates Genesis from Yes or anyone else in Prog. Not another album like it. My uncontested favorite from 1974 and maybe even the decade or all time. Genesis was the cream of the crop of the 70’s.
But my favorite band is Dream Theater!
I think these Rolling Stone lists are the crime of the century.
Indeed. 😂
You're The PROG Report and you didn't include Hergest Ridge by Mike Oldfield? For shame. FOR SHAME!
😞
lol... all you guys lost your prog credentials on the lack of Gentle Giant love and knowledge.
🤣Oh well, we had a nice run
yeah I was so surprised by that
Kansas gets mentioned and GG gets glossed over. Something very wrong with that.
@@jasonshort1437 Glossed over? It was the first album mentioned and is one of only 15 we discussed.
Gentle Giant are an acquired taste. Heck, they even have an album CALLED Acquiring the Taste! I’m an Octopus guy when it comes to Gentle Giant. Never really delved much deeper into their oeuvre. Sorry, not sorry. I’m a much bigger Kansas fan. Different strokes for different folks.
