You definetly missed one importent one. Manfred Mann's eart band. Solar fire is one off the most catchy prog albums ever made so they might be to progy for this list. But I cant see you have mentioned them earlyer. Apart from that a great list.
@@TheProgCorner Me to. I was hard core prog back in the 70 Crimson , Genesis ,Yes , Gentle Giant Elp but Manfred Man was to comersial for me. When I go back and listen to song like Father of night , Pluto the dog and the title track Solar fire it's fan fucking tastic. Great melodies, groovy and kind of Funky. Their version of Father of Night is IMO the best Dylan cover along whith Hendrix version of All allong the watchtower. 🤏😊
I saw them live just as they released Solar Fire, I bought the album on my way home from work the next day having been that impressed with their live performance.
Great list! One that wasn’t mentioned that I think fits the bill is Spirit. Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus is pretty proggy in a Moody Blues kind of way but I think they are usually considered to be a psychedelic rock band.
Before there was Steely Dan there was this album by Spirit. Spirit was like the US alternative to Traffic of the UK. Spirit is an important piece in the pioneering of Prog.
This list absolutely makes me think of rock radio back in the 70s and very early 80s...you know, when they played what they wanted to, introduced you to bands and new music, you felt like DJs were your friends...I so miss it. And thanks for mentioning Rainbow, man I love Rainbow when Ronnie was singing, yes, Rainbow Rising is just classic. I just love your channel Scot, you make me smile.
This "grey area" stuff is kind of my favourite sometow. I like "prog" as a quality you find in music rather than a set genre with a specific sound. When I heard the song "House on the Hill" from Audience on the radio during a trip to niagara Falls back around 2001, I thought I might have found some forgotten prog classic. I got the album --well, it's maybe not all that proggy as a whole, but definitely has its moments. April Wine could be a bit proggy at times. "Sign of the Gypsy Queen"!
Crosby Stills & Nash: their 1977 album CSN is very proggy. Check out “Shadow Captain”, Cathedral” and other tracks, some have a fusion/jazz-prog feel. Plus amazing harmony vocals.
Excellent stuff Scot. I do regard the first 2 Klaatu albums as their best, but I also really love the very pop oriented album, Sir Army Suit. And Magentalane a very good, yet hard to find release.
@@TheProgCorner You are right , UH had a lot of proggy moments and they still do. I just remembered one more band Iron Butterfly, I know they are mostly psych but there are prog moments in their music.
In the UK heavy blues band The Groundhogs could be proggy, mostly due to to the improvised guitar solos performed by Tony Macphee. By the way, in the UK the term Progressive Rock was originally applied to bands like Sabath, Purple, Zepplin, Steppanwolf and the like. The term Underground was used to describe bands such as Floyd, Tull, Yes, Genesis, basically all the bands now considered prog., but eventually the term heavy rock took over to discribe any guitar based band that was loud and played blues or rock orientated music. Didn't here Zeppelin mentioned, but I actually considered them prog anyway. Great channel anyway.
So glad to FINALLY hear you say that you love BOC!! I ALSO agree with you that they have always been somewhat "proggish..." They are overall one of those bands that defies categorization; influential to prog and metal but still very much a ROCK-&-ROLL band. One of the best EVER!!
Maybe more classic pop than classic rock, but-- Al Stewart has some deep cuts that are prog...and the long versions of Year Of The Cat and Time Passages are prog The Eagles: Hotel California could be called prog, as is the closing cut from the Hotel California album: The Last Resort A contrarian view: Joe Walsh: I say the long version of Life's Been Good is prog Thanks for noting Dire Straits Steely Dan? Well, The Boston Rag is prog
Great discussion (as always). So many progressive moments in 70s rock. ELO has always been a progressive pop band to me. Eldorado may be my favorite of theirs. Love early Chicago. Can never make up my mind. What's my favorite? CTA or II? I dunno. Royal Scam might be my favorite Steely Dan album. And if you want to go further. Specifically soul. Those 5 Stevie Wonder albums from Music of Mind to Songs in the Key of Life certainly were progressive.
there's probably 100 or more of these. The obvious name that wasn't included was Styx, Kansas I guess is considered more Pure Prog, but Styx is slightly less for some reason. I mean more than Journey and Foreigner....or Aerosmith. Good call on B.O.C. and Grank Funk Railroad
Procul Harum almost always forgotten. Such a great body of work people dont seem to know. Other than Whiter Shade. Another band even more forgotten. NEVER mentioned; Montain! Nantucket Sleighride album is a masterpiece as is their live version on “ The Road goes ever on”
@markrothkop5598 "Conquistador" got some airplay in Australia. Gary Brooker played on some Kate Bush albums. Some of her stuff post "Never for Ever" album could be considered prog.
That was a SERIOUSLY good run down of a lot of my favorite bands and artists on it. Makes me think I may be on the fringe of being a prog head I don’t know. Anyway it was a brilliant run down. All the best. Dave✅✅
Prog or not all those bands are completely acceptable for prog fans. Dire Straits prog connections: Pick Withers was in Spring and Terry Williams was in Man.
Great list as usual. But the big missing for me is the Mighty Magnum. Kingdom of Madness, Magnum II, Chase the Dragon, The Eleventh Hour!, On a Storyteller's Night with How Far Jerusalem and their most recent albums like Lost on the Road to Eternity, The Serpent Rings, The Visitation... Awesome stuff. And R.I.P. Tony Clarkin 😢😢😢
Glad to see ELO on your list, I'd also include 10CC and City Boy (reminds me so much of Supertramp and equally as good IMO, too bad they never got the recognition)
Most sites don't consider Kraftwerk to be prog but "Kraftwerk 2", "Ralf & Florian", "Autobahn" and "Radio Activity" feel totally prog to me. Even the first album has it's prog moments. Who could deny that Kraftwerk 2's 17 minute "Kling Klang" isn't a full out prog track? Enjoy
A very interesting list. I would have Traffic much higher. I would have expected Uriah Heep, Spirit, 10CC, perhaps the Beatles if you class them as Classic Rock I suppose.
I know!!! I know!!! I have mentioned the band maybe three or four times on the channel and I’ve said it wrong every time!!!! I am consistent if nothing else…
These are all 70's bands if I'm not mistaken. Roxy Music, Wishbone Ash, Magnum all come to mind but they might be too Prog to be in the grey area or not corporate enough to ever be played on a Classic Rock station. This is why I preferred AOR radio and avoided Classic Rock stations most of the time. Steely Dan is probably too Prog to be in the grey area which is explains why they are ranked so high. Great respect for The Dan! Triumph was really good just not as consistent as I wished they could be. Loved their music growing up and plenty of Prog elements. Rik Emmett has a guitar resume right up there with Jeff Beck, Steve Morse, and Tommy Bolin. Toto was very Proggy. Maybe too mainstream to be associated with Prog but way too talented not to be associated with it. Their much later albums have some really Proggy stuff also and some solo works go full Prog. Dire Straights are overlooked too often for their better music. Love Over Gold is their most Proggy album and a good one at that. Yeah I really cringed at Aerosmith. Heart wasn't afraid to crossover into Folk/Acoustic territory but far from Prog. Boston and Foreigner have hints of Prog but I don't think they are in the grey area at all. Most of your assessments are very well spoken. This was an entertaining video to say the least. I don't see any 80's here. Tears For Fears and Iron Maiden are no-brainers for that decade. Both bands had some of the very best albums of the 80's. Tears For Fears the best at turning Prog into Pop songs until maybe Steve Wilson and Porcupine Tree. Iron Maiden had Progressive Rock epics and only got way more Proggy over the years.
Are you into progressive soul? Artists like Stevie Wonder, Curtis Mayfield, and funk bands like P-Funk and Sly and the Family Stone. That stuff sounds prog to me
Listen to Ten Years After 50,000 miles below my brain. The title alone tells you you’re going on a trip! Leo Lyons bass! His name isn’t even known and he’s one of the greatest bass players ever. That’s just one example of greatness from that band that you might think was mostly about Alvin Lees lightning fast guitar licks. Alvin Lee was a very talented artist. Wrote great songs. Great vocalist. Amazing guitarist ( that never shows up on any list) and put out some tremendous albums. Sssh, Cricklewood Green, A space in Time… just to name a few
Did you say that Ronnie James Dio has "the Rainbow Connection"? Maybe Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem band could be considered a prog "grey area" band.
The only "southern rock" band that I might consider to be prog is the Allmann Brothers. They weren't as "hard rock" as Lynyrd Skynyrd or Molly Hatchet, and they weren't as "country" as Charlie Daniels, all of who were ALSO great bands that made a lot of great music, just not as "prog" as the Allmann Bros.
Goldy McJohn finished his life living in Seattle area and he came and jammed many times with Alan White's local band between the late 90s and about 2010.
"Sabotage" is the best Sabbath Album and in my opinion very close to Prog. And the second best album of Black Sabbath is also very close to prog. Best Song ever of Black Sabbath and very proggy is "Sabra Cadabra"
Thanks for mentioning Dire Straits. Love over Gold is a masterpiece album! Btw, I like Communiqué very much, Once upon a time in the west, News, Where do you think you're going.... splendid stuff! Their last album "On every street" (1991) has some great moments too, I think it's an underrated album. If it had 8 instead of 12 tracks, it would be even better. Similar issue as with Maiden's Fear Of The Dark. ;-)
Don’t know what words you want to use; Procul Harum is to good to be so often just forgotten Anothe forgotten band. Mountain. Nantucket Sleighride album is a masterpiece album. And the live Nantucket Sleighride live from “Road goes Ever on “ record simply mind blowing
Great list. Another '70s group that had some unexpectedly proggy moments was -- believe it or not -- Seals & Crofts. Check out "Year of Sunday," "Nine Houses" or "Wayland The Rabbit." Even some of their pop hits like "Hummingbird" had some surprisingly adventurous arrangements that you would normally associate with a "soft rock" act.
They were the Simon and Garfunkel of the 70's. And Simon and Garfunkel influenced Yes and I'm sure others. Plenty of Classical influences. Seals and Crofts are also fantastic. Big Big Train The Underfall Yard is extremely Genesis influenced. But sounds very much like Seals and Crofts throughout the album
The only Golden Earring song I always need in my life is Twilight Zone. They have lots of other great stuff, but that one I need. I just do. Don't ask for a logical rationale. I certainly agree with Rainbow. They check a LOT of prog boxes: virtuosity, grand concepts, extended compositions... You kinda lost me at Aerosmith, though. LOL. BOC definitely - one of my favorite overlooked gems is Imaginos. Yeah, it's a bit of a mess, and the history behind it is wacky, but it's a gorgeous mess, if you ask me. The Who is the band my girlfriend has credited with simultaneously originating both prog and punk! What? No Billy Squier on here? ....just kidding... 🤪
@@TheProgCorner I didn't get to see him until 89, but King's X and Blue Murder opened, and it was awesome all around. One of the best triple bills I've ever seen.
I love a lot of these bands. This is the sort of stuff I love. I actually consider some of these bands, or at least parts of their discography, to actually be prog. Right. That's why you're calling them grey area bands. I would also have to include Alice Cooper with the classic albums Love It To Death; Killer and Billion Dollar Babies. I had those albums when I only had about ten total albums and one of those was Chipmonks Sing the Beatles! Another fine entry here would be Head East's Flat As A Pancake. Yay, classic rock of me poor misbegotten youth!
Well, there's a certain point where everything could be regarded as prog if one wanted to do so. But there are certain distinctions that can be made. In the late '60s, there was soft rock, rock, hard rock, acid rock, and psychedelic rock (to name a few). I think the most Prog album by the Who was "The Who Sell Out". And what about Stones' "...Satanic Majesties..." album...mellotron and all? Jazz influences don't necessarily mean Prog to me in all cases, otherwise everything that Jeff Beck did after the Yardbirds would be Prog, for example...for that matter, what exactly is "jazz influence" and why would that have to be Prog? I dunno. But a lot of artists had Prog songs from 1960 onwards, judged simply by the song itself, but there are very few examples from any decade that I would consider to be created by Prog bands. Sometimes a Prog fan can find songs from almost any band of any eras that were interesting and downright good to listen to...but the temptation of calling everything Prog should be something to be avoided. Sure, the last Iron Maiden album was very proggy, by my own admission, but I wouldn't put them on a Prog list. There might be Prog influences, but that's the nature of music, or at least the way it used to be. My personal Prog band list is a very special place and not everyone can be there ;) Good video and enjoyable as always!
Your premise is sound: if you squint your eyes just right everything looks like Prog!!! I find myself guilty of wanting to hear it so, guess what? I hear it. But I know it’s a delusion. What is Prog? It’s like porn - hard to define but I know it when I hear it!!!!
@@TheProgCorner what is that? i hear everything with a prog hear. i know it's "delusional". it's refreshing to hear someone else has a similar response. thanks for sharing. porn is a lack of imagination.
Hi Scot!! Great show again!!! I believe Manfred Mann's Earth Band and Procol Harum are missing here such great bands!! I loved that you chose Blue Oyster Cult, The Doors, Elton John, David Bowie, Traffic, Black Sabbath, Journey, Boston, and Rainbow and you are so right they all had elements of prog rock. The Who yes very well chosen, Led Zeppelin too ("In The Light"). Foreigner is a good choice too "Cold as Ice" is so cool!! Even The Rolling Stones had some prog moments like "Can't you hear me Knocking", "Winter", "Time Waits For No One" or "Doo Doo doo (Heartbreaker)". See you my Scottish friend (Just like Ian Anderson)!!!
Good list and nothing (or lots!) to argue about. All mentioned have some tracks or even albums which definitely attempt something a little more ambitious than simple pop or rock. The two bands which definitely belong that you didn't mention are 10cc and (early) Roxy Music. Maybe you don't consider them Classic Rock as they're more art rock/70s pop or even UK glam rock but hey, that's another chapter in this series, eh?
It's hyper rock Scott. Hahaha. Hey dude..what do you think of Stomu Yamashita."Go". Hope you mention one of my favorites. Malice in Wonderland by Paice,Ashton,Lord..
Recently discovered your channel and I'm enjoying a lot your content, and mostly your passion in explaining and defending your music taste; I'm from Uruguay, and I've discovered some new and interesting stuff thanks to your videos. I decided to comment because I'm quite into Prog, and I'd never heard of anyone considering Dire Strais as prog-related, though I think they are (by the way, what would you say is the definition of Prog?). Dire Straits is by far my favourite band, and some of their deeper catalog is clearly prog; I recommend you to listen to "It never rains" from Love Over Gold album, a personal favourite of mine and really "progie" as you say (at least to me). Keep up the good work and keep enjoying great music, hope you have a great time!
It's hard to criticise any of your picks Scot. Rock music was still pretty young in the 70s and bands were experimenting and pushing the boundaries. I'll add 3 bands to your list. Atomic Rooster (their 1970 album Death Walks Behind You is probably my favourite). Next up are Budgie (1975s Bandolier is fantastic and features Napoleon Bona Part 1 and Part 2🥰). Next up I'll offer The Sensational Alex Harvey Band. Their 1973 album Next is fantastic and features Faith Healer🥰 (which was covered by Fish, who also covered another SAHB song, Boston Tea Party) along with their cover of Jacques Brel's Next. All of their albums are a mix of glam, cabaret, and prog. They even covered Jethro Tull's Love Story on 1976s Penthouse Tapes. So glad you included Rainbow Rising. The album starts with a minute long keyboard intro. If that's not prog what is? Gates Of Babylon from their Long Live Rock & Roll album is awesome. I don't need to choose 5 albums to take to a desert island. Just give me Gates Of Babylon and I'll be a happy castaway🤭 Peace, Love and Respect sir🤘🏻
I thought about Budgie!!! And as far as Atomic Rooster goes, I consider them 100% Prog!!!!! The Sensational Harvey Band is one band I am embarrassed to say that I’ve never listened to. Heard of them but never heard them. They got zero love over here…
Traffic, BOC, The Doors & Zeppelin made up the majority of my rock collection during the 70's, excluding the classic progressive bands I loved. Traffic is one of those rare bands where I can argue that they don't have a single bad album (the 67-74 period). Welcome to the Canteen is such an entertaining live record, and When the Eagle Flies is just so underrated yet damned good. Steve Winwood could sing stock exchange numbers and make them sound good! Buck Dharma, always overlooked because he isn't a high end shredder, probably possesses one of the most acute sensibilities in how to gradually build up a solo with wonderful phrasing and a sense of composition, memorable melodies left, right and centre. Although BOC have a chequered output, even their worst albums will have a song or two that are simply extraordinary. I can't think of a more eclectic and interesting rock and roll band than the Rhode Island boys at their best. A great BOC album will have enough riffs and ideas that other hard rock/metal bands would make 3 albums out of.
What about proggy elements in singer songwriters. There's a video. Laura Nyro, Tim Buckley, Scott Walker, etc. For example, Nyro's 8 minute piano piece Map to the Treasure (1970). She wanted to do ten minute songs for her debut album in 1966, but the record company and producer said no. Clive Davis then signed her with total freedom and she produced arguably the first true progressive album Eli and the Thirteenth Confession (1968), which all things considered i would argue is the best pop/ rock single album ever.
Normally one would associate them with Tom Cruise dancing in his briefs; but how about that mellotron in Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band's Turn the Page?
Transatlantic did do a cover of "Hogweed" WITH Steve Hackett. The song, "Return of the Giant Hogweed" is, surprisingly true! And it's all factual; nothing is made up. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heracleum_mantegazzianum
Skirting the stratosphere with some of these, my friend, but hey, it's your choice! I think Deep Purple's Stormbringer is sooo prog. The only album that I have four copies of, original UK release, original Japanese, limited edition purple vinyl and my pride and joy a fully autographed vinyl signed for me by the whole band after their concert in Manchester.
I think the dna of progressive rock is essentially all about finding grey areas to make music in. It is an experimental attitude and a willingness to shake things up using musicianship. Love Golden Earing... ride out on Twighlight zone is some ripping solo jazz guitar runs with distortion. Early Heart is pretty awesome. Without Bowie, Prog isnt the same... he isn't always proggy but when he is he is a crucial artist. Expecting an artist to stay in only one genre is the antithesis of a progressive approach to music. One thorny band you didnt mention is Van Halen (first edition)... take out Roth's party lyrics and there's some grey area. Hell they hid the best Jazz fusion break of the 80's in the disposable pop song that was Jump. Alex and Eddie were an amazing combo musicianship wise.... wished they would have done an instrumental album.
When I'm thinking Rainbow I'm thinking Difficult to Cure and the track Spotlight Kid !!..... reminds somewhat of Dream Theater in the instrumental break. Love that. Loads of interest in that countdown Scot. Steely Dan... excellent of course. When not listening to Pure Prog definitely my go to. Which brings me to Led Zeppelin.. my absolute stone-cold favourite without question has to be Presence. Not everyone's I know...such a strong connection to it. And maybe it's the Hypnosis sleeve design... not sure. Carried it around as part of a small bunch everywhere that one. A great interesting topic Scot...10cc another one. 😍
what a great video my whole records buy from that year went by .😊glad you high lighted eldorado . the beginning music i can.t get it of my head 😂 and golden earring moontan great . a question aside did you already knew anthony is coming with new vinyl ?
@@TheProgCorner good lord ! Well It could be worse but not by much. Cars are like “surprise ! You’re suddenly broke “ That sucks scot. Hang in there man
Great video! A few more jumped out at me while watching. Roxy Music, Be Bop Deluxe, Max Webster, Roadmaster. Maybe they fall under a whole other category like obscure bands that have a gray area in prog. Could be another video, feel free to steal the idea. 😂
You definetly missed one importent one.
Manfred Mann's eart band.

Dire Straights are overlooked too often for their better music. Love Over Gold is their most Proggy album and a good one at that.
Yeah I really cringed at Aerosmith. Heart wasn't afraid to crossover into Folk/Acoustic territory but far from Prog. Boston and Foreigner have hints of Prog but I don't think they are in the grey area at all.
Most of your assessments are very well spoken.
This was an entertaining video to say the least.
I don't see any 80's here. Tears For Fears and Iron Maiden are no-brainers for that decade. Both bands had some of the very best albums of the 80's. Tears For Fears the best at turning Prog into Pop songs until maybe Steve Wilson and Porcupine Tree. Iron Maiden had Progressive Rock epics and only got way more Proggy over the years.
I was definitely focusing on that seventies Classic Rock in this episode…
Are you into progressive soul? Artists like Stevie Wonder, Curtis Mayfield, and funk bands like P-Funk and Sly and the Family Stone. That stuff sounds prog to me
My first concert was Sly & the Family Stone back in 1970!!!
Listen to Ten Years After 50,000 miles below my brain. The title alone tells you you’re going on a trip! Leo Lyons bass! His name isn’t even known and he’s one of the greatest bass players ever. That’s just one example of greatness from that band that you might think was mostly about Alvin Lees lightning fast guitar licks. Alvin Lee was a very talented artist. Wrote great songs. Great vocalist. Amazing guitarist ( that never shows up on any list) and put out some tremendous albums. Sssh, Cricklewood Green, A space in Time… just to name a few
Nice. What a terrific band.
Now Playing: Blue Oyster Cult... thanks for the reminder!
Taking me back to Butler Middle School!!!
#19 - Elton John: only prog for “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” and “Don’t Shoot Me…” (Why are all his titles so wordy?)
Good question!
My favorite Grateful Dead albums are Blues for Allah and Terrapin Station, which have several songs that are prog related.
Terrapin Station is Prog!!!!!!
Not sure why the Doors aren't considered at least proto prog. If they were English they would be though.
A solid point.
Nice. Was Wishbone Ash considered or are they too obscure or part of another grouping. Probably not Prog enough but has moments.
No, I just forgot about them. And Argus is an all time favorite!!!!
@@TheProgCorner As a very funny friend of mine used to say; 'If you don't have "Argus" you just ain't a man!'
Nice!!! Kinda true too…
Looks like there has to be a part 2 going by the comments. So sad, it ends. as it began.............
As Jim said: “This is the end.”
Angel-S/T=1975 Helluva Band=1976 ==POMP!!!
Angel SHOULD have been on the list!!!!!
instrumental foreigner tracks very close to prog is tramontane in double vision i think may be a m cdonald track ...very very goot
That’s the one - TRAMONTANE!!!
Great list Scott! My only add would be Wishbone Ash!
For sure!!!
a few records you mentioned i almost forgot but when you mentioned chicago and also chicago 7 i forgothow great record that was.😊
Just amazing!!!
Montrose (Space Station Number 5) and Nazareth come to mind.
Man, I love Montrose!!!!
Early Queen fits that category perfectly, especially "Queen II": such a weird but fantastic album and very very Prog
Yes!!!!
I think John Kay is actually from Germany..
Really???
Uriah Heep
I thought about them but their seventies records were pretty much Prog…
URIAH HEEP British LEGENDS since 1969 to present
Did you say that Ronnie James Dio has "the Rainbow Connection"? Maybe Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem band could be considered a prog "grey area" band.
Dr. Teeth!!!! Nice one.
Dodałbym Bodkin,Czar i T2.
Excellent!!!!
GFR - DEF Prog. Nuff said. Try E pluribus Funk!
Yes indeed.
The Sensational Alex Harvey Band ...
I’m embarrassed to say that I have never listened to them!!!!
try a track called the tale of the giant stoneater, and go from there, alex harvey and the boys were truly sensational
Okay!!! I’ll finally give them a listen…
The only "southern rock" band that I might consider to be prog is the Allmann Brothers. They weren't as "hard rock" as Lynyrd Skynyrd or Molly Hatchet, and they weren't as "country" as Charlie Daniels, all of who were ALSO great bands that made a lot of great music, just not as "prog" as the Allmann Bros.
in memory of liz reed!
Yes!!!
Goldy McJohn finished his life living in Seattle area and he came and jammed many times with Alan White's local band between the late 90s and about 2010.
I remember hearing about that!!!
@@TheProgCorner I got to see it several times. They would do Magic Carpet Ride and Born To Be Wild with Goldy. It was a fun time.
Sabbath is Metal/Classic Rock/Prog especially "The Writ" & "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" album
Absolutely!!!! 👍👍👍
"Sabotage" is the best Sabbath Album and in my opinion very close to Prog. And the second best album of Black Sabbath is also very close to prog. Best Song ever of Black Sabbath and very proggy is "Sabra Cadabra"
Forgot to mention the second best Black Sabbath Album: Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Toto: 👍👍👍
The best Genesis songs? That's a tough one. It's like ranking the best stars in the sky! Or, the best kernels in a bowl of hot, buttered popcorn!
No doubt.
I'm just too old to be in the majority!@@TheProgCorner
We used to pronounce Klaatu as Klow’ tū. 6:16
Yeah, I’m pretty sure I said it wrong!!!
Thanks for mentioning Dire Straits. Love over Gold is a masterpiece album!
Btw, I like Communiqué very much, Once upon a time in the west, News, Where do you think you're going.... splendid stuff!
Their last album "On every street" (1991) has some great moments too, I think it's an underrated album. If it had 8 instead of 12 tracks, it would be even better. Similar issue as with Maiden's Fear Of The Dark. ;-)
Procol Harum!
Great band but I consider them 100% Prog!!!!
Don’t know what words you want to use; Procul Harum is to good to be so often just forgotten
Anothe forgotten band. Mountain. Nantucket Sleighride album is a masterpiece album. And the live Nantucket Sleighride live from “Road goes Ever on “ record simply mind blowing
Mountain!!!! Now that’s a great suggestion.
I guess I need to wait for the
“Bubble Gum/Prog Gray Area” video
The Plan
The Plan
The Plan…
Great list. Another '70s group that had some unexpectedly proggy moments was -- believe it or not -- Seals & Crofts. Check out "Year of Sunday," "Nine Houses" or "Wayland The Rabbit." Even some of their pop hits like "Hummingbird" had some surprisingly adventurous arrangements that you would normally associate with a "soft rock" act.
Someone else had mentioned a while back - so I checked out Year Of Sunday and I was impressed!!! All I knew were the hits!!!
They were the Simon and Garfunkel of the 70's. And Simon and Garfunkel influenced Yes and I'm sure others. Plenty of Classical influences. Seals and Crofts are also fantastic. Big Big Train The Underfall Yard is extremely Genesis influenced. But sounds very much like Seals and Crofts throughout the album
Interesting!!!!!
The only Golden Earring song I always need in my life is Twilight Zone. They have lots of other great stuff, but that one I need. I just do. Don't ask for a logical rationale. I certainly agree with Rainbow. They check a LOT of prog boxes: virtuosity, grand concepts, extended compositions... You kinda lost me at Aerosmith, though. LOL. BOC definitely - one of my favorite overlooked gems is Imaginos. Yeah, it's a bit of a mess, and the history behind it is wacky, but it's a gorgeous mess, if you ask me. The Who is the band my girlfriend has credited with simultaneously originating both prog and punk! What? No Billy Squier on here? ....just kidding... 🤪
Hey… I love Billy Squier but I hear zero Prog in his music…
@@TheProgCorner 🤣🤣 I'm just being an ass! Love him to, but agreed - ain't no prog there, at all!
I saw him in 1982. And he was awesome!!!
@@TheProgCorner I didn't get to see him until 89, but King's X and Blue Murder opened, and it was awesome all around. One of the best triple bills I've ever seen.
I like Klaatu's first two albums.
Me too!!!
They all dabbled in Prog x
Indeed they did.
I love a lot of these bands. This is the sort of stuff I love. I actually consider some of these bands, or at least parts of their discography, to actually be prog. Right. That's why you're calling them grey area bands. I would also have to include Alice Cooper with the classic albums Love It To Death; Killer and Billion Dollar Babies. I had those albums when I only had about ten total albums and one of those was Chipmonks Sing the Beatles! Another fine entry here would be Head East's Flat As A Pancake. Yay, classic rock of me poor misbegotten youth!
Alice Cooper was my Final Cut. Ouch!!!!
@@TheProgCorner Well at least I know they were on your radar for this category. ;)
No i Andromeda!
Good one.
wishbone ash my first thought
Yep.
URIAH HEEP British LEGENDS since 1969 to present.
Well, there's a certain point where everything could be regarded as prog if one wanted to do so. But there are certain distinctions that can be made. In the late '60s, there was soft rock, rock, hard rock, acid rock, and psychedelic rock (to name a few). I think the most Prog album by the Who was "The Who Sell Out". And what about Stones' "...Satanic Majesties..." album...mellotron and all?
Jazz influences don't necessarily mean Prog to me in all cases, otherwise everything that Jeff Beck did after the Yardbirds would be Prog, for example...for that matter, what exactly is "jazz influence" and why would that have to be Prog? I dunno. But a lot of artists had Prog songs from 1960 onwards, judged simply by the song itself, but there are very few examples from any decade that I would consider to be created by Prog bands. Sometimes a Prog fan can find songs from almost any band of any eras that were interesting and downright good to listen to...but the temptation of calling everything Prog should be something to be avoided. Sure, the last Iron Maiden album was very proggy, by my own admission, but I wouldn't put them on a Prog list. There might be Prog influences, but that's the nature of music, or at least the way it used to be. My personal Prog band list is a very special place and not everyone can be there ;)
Good video and enjoyable as always!
Your premise is sound: if you squint your eyes just right everything looks like Prog!!! I find myself guilty of wanting to hear it so, guess what? I hear it. But I know it’s a delusion. What is Prog? It’s like porn - hard to define but I know it when I hear it!!!!
@@TheProgCorner what is that? i hear everything with a prog hear. i know it's "delusional". it's refreshing to hear someone else has a similar response. thanks for sharing. porn is a lack of imagination.
Evening Scot hope you are well
I am!!! Life is good!!!! I always walk on the sunny side of the street.
@@TheProgCorner Absolutely better laugh than cry ❤️💯💯💯
Hi Scot!! Great show again!!! I believe Manfred Mann's Earth Band and Procol Harum are missing here such great bands!! I loved that you chose Blue Oyster Cult, The Doors, Elton John, David Bowie, Traffic, Black Sabbath, Journey, Boston, and Rainbow and you are so right they all had elements of prog rock. The Who yes very well chosen, Led Zeppelin too ("In The Light"). Foreigner is a good choice too "Cold as Ice" is so cool!! Even The Rolling Stones had some prog moments like "Can't you hear me Knocking", "Winter", "Time Waits For No One" or "Doo Doo doo (Heartbreaker)". See you my Scottish friend (Just like Ian Anderson)!!!
I’m planning on correcting this. I have been silent on Manfred Mann’s Earth Band for too long…
Good list and nothing (or lots!) to argue about. All mentioned have some tracks or even albums which definitely attempt something a little more ambitious than simple pop or rock. The two bands which definitely belong that you didn't mention are 10cc and (early) Roxy Music. Maybe you don't consider them Classic Rock as they're more art rock/70s pop or even UK glam rock but hey, that's another chapter in this series, eh?
Roxy and 10cc are interesting subjects that I will be exploring on the channel. Probably end up ranking both discographies!!!
It's hyper rock Scott. Hahaha. Hey dude..what do you think of Stomu Yamashita."Go". Hope you mention one of my favorites. Malice in Wonderland by Paice,Ashton,Lord..
Deep Purple offshoots are always cool. And I really like Stormu. I need to spend some more quality time with him!!!!
Recently discovered your channel and I'm enjoying a lot your content, and mostly your passion in explaining and defending your music taste; I'm from Uruguay, and I've discovered some new and interesting stuff thanks to your videos.
I decided to comment because I'm quite into Prog, and I'd never heard of anyone considering Dire Strais as prog-related, though I think they are (by the way, what would you say is the definition of Prog?).
Dire Straits is by far my favourite band, and some of their deeper catalog is clearly prog; I recommend you to listen to "It never rains" from Love Over Gold album, a personal favourite of mine and really "progie" as you say (at least to me).
Keep up the good work and keep enjoying great music, hope you have a great time!
Prog is impossible to define: although many have tried. I go with this: Prog is just music. Only better!!!!
It's hard to criticise any of your picks Scot. Rock music was still pretty young in the 70s and bands were experimenting and pushing the boundaries.
I'll add 3 bands to your list. Atomic Rooster (their 1970 album Death Walks Behind You is probably my favourite). Next up are Budgie (1975s Bandolier is fantastic and features Napoleon Bona Part 1 and Part 2🥰). Next up I'll offer The Sensational Alex Harvey Band. Their 1973 album Next is fantastic and features Faith Healer🥰 (which was covered by Fish, who also covered another SAHB song, Boston Tea Party) along with their cover of Jacques Brel's Next. All of their albums are a mix of glam, cabaret, and prog. They even covered Jethro Tull's Love Story on 1976s Penthouse Tapes.
So glad you included Rainbow Rising. The album starts with a minute long keyboard intro. If that's not prog what is? Gates Of Babylon from their Long Live Rock & Roll album is awesome. I don't need to choose 5 albums to take to a desert island. Just give me Gates Of Babylon and I'll be a happy castaway🤭
Peace, Love and Respect sir🤘🏻
I thought about Budgie!!! And as far as Atomic Rooster goes, I consider them 100% Prog!!!!! The Sensational Harvey Band is one band I am embarrassed to say that I’ve never listened to. Heard of them but never heard them. They got zero love over here…
Traffic, BOC, The Doors & Zeppelin made up the majority of my rock collection during the 70's, excluding the classic progressive bands I loved. Traffic is one of those rare bands where I can argue that they don't have a single bad album (the 67-74 period). Welcome to the Canteen is such an entertaining live record, and When the Eagle Flies is just so underrated yet damned good. Steve Winwood could sing stock exchange numbers and make them sound good! Buck Dharma, always overlooked because he isn't a high end shredder, probably possesses one of the most acute sensibilities in how to gradually build up a solo with wonderful phrasing and a sense of composition, memorable melodies left, right and centre. Although BOC have a chequered output, even their worst albums will have a song or two that are simply extraordinary. I can't think of a more eclectic and interesting rock and roll band than the Rhode Island boys at their best. A great BOC album will have enough riffs and ideas that other hard rock/metal bands would make 3 albums out of.
BÖC = the sound of my childhood.
What about proggy elements in singer songwriters. There's a video. Laura Nyro, Tim Buckley, Scott Walker, etc. For example, Nyro's 8 minute piano piece Map to the Treasure (1970). She wanted to do ten minute songs for her debut album in 1966, but the record company and producer said no. Clive Davis then signed her with total freedom and she produced arguably the first true progressive album Eli and the Thirteenth Confession (1968), which all things considered i would argue is the best pop/ rock single album ever.
Great idea!!!!!
@@TheProgCorner Cheers.
I have a Sott Walker album ( Scott 2) from '68. If the track Girls from the Streets I don't know what is.
Normally one would associate them with Tom Cruise dancing in his briefs; but how about that mellotron in Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band's Turn the Page?
I love Bob!!!!
Transatlantic did do a cover of "Hogweed" WITH Steve Hackett.
The song, "Return of the Giant Hogweed" is, surprisingly true! And it's all factual; nothing is made up.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heracleum_mantegazzianum
Yeah, Steve was on that one!!! I love Transatlantic!!!!
Is Marshall Tucker the lead singer of The Marshall Tucker Band? lol Or did he play an instrument??
He went on to form a band with Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd and Alice Cooper…
OMG That is so HILARIOUS!!!@@TheProgCorner
That had to be a great supergroup with half US & half English@@TheProgCorner
Wait wasn't Leonard Skynard also in that band?@@TheProgCorner
The gym teacher and the piano tuner!!!
Skirting the stratosphere with some of these, my friend, but hey, it's your choice!
I think Deep Purple's Stormbringer is sooo prog. The only album that I have four copies of, original UK release, original Japanese, limited edition purple vinyl and my pride and joy a fully autographed vinyl signed for me by the whole band after their concert in Manchester.
Deep Purple rule.
I think the dna of progressive rock is essentially all about finding grey areas to make music in. It is an experimental attitude and a willingness to shake things up using musicianship. Love Golden Earing... ride out on Twighlight zone is some ripping solo jazz guitar runs with distortion. Early Heart is pretty awesome. Without Bowie, Prog isnt the same... he isn't always proggy but when he is he is a crucial artist. Expecting an artist to stay in only one genre is the antithesis of a progressive approach to music. One thorny band you didnt mention is Van Halen (first edition)... take out Roth's party lyrics and there's some grey area. Hell they hid the best Jazz fusion break of the 80's in the disposable pop song that was Jump. Alex and Eddie were an amazing combo musicianship wise.... wished they would have done an instrumental album.
I love Van Halen - especially the first four albums!!!
Great list Scot! What about Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel, and Meat Loaf?
Meatloaf is a good call. And I love Cockney Rebel. 👍👍👍
I'd throw into the mix Stone the Crows, if only on the strength of the epic I Saw America.
I don’t know that one!!!
Gee Scot, listing all those bands was like going through my record album collection. Great job as always!🤩
Yes sir!!!
Maybe Little Feat when they stretched out a bit. Good list and nice to see BÖC pop up.
Little Feat!!! Absolutely!!!!
When I'm thinking Rainbow I'm thinking Difficult to Cure and the track Spotlight Kid !!..... reminds somewhat of Dream Theater in the instrumental break. Love that. Loads of interest in that countdown Scot. Steely Dan... excellent of course. When not listening to Pure Prog definitely my go to. Which brings me to Led Zeppelin.. my absolute stone-cold favourite without question has to be Presence. Not everyone's I know...such a strong connection to it. And maybe it's the Hypnosis sleeve design... not sure. Carried it around as part of a small bunch everywhere that one. A great interesting topic Scot...10cc another one. 😍
I love Zeppelin. And Presence is a special album. Achilles Last Stand. Wow!!!
@@TheProgCorner Yeah it's amazing...and Nobody's fault but mine too. Think that's a cover. Superb 👍

Great video! A few more jumped out at me while watching. Roxy Music, Be Bop Deluxe, Max Webster, Roadmaster. Maybe they fall under a whole other category like obscure bands that have a gray area in prog. Could be another video, feel free to steal the idea. 😂
Love MaxWebster especially the first album and the song they did with rush
Battle Scar was on Max Webster’s last album. Universal Juveniles.
But, you’re right Max Webster we’re pretty good.
Oh yeah I meant to say their first and last album with the Rush song my bad
