How To Blow My Mind
I have seen this footage on Progressive music documentaries over the years but it's finally been released on the 2009 reissue of Red.
Absolutely one of the best songs ever written on one of the best albums ever made.

Now That's What I Call Prog......

When people talk about progressive rock these days they only talk about the big hitters, Genesis, Yes, Pink Floyd, ELP etc etc.
Once a week I am going to post criminally underrated albums that should be heard, I suppose not underrated by die hard progressive rock fans but just your average Joe who likes prog.
VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR is perhaps the most underrated and unrecognized band of all the 70s prog groups. They lied on the fringe of fame, and are perhaps the best band never to break the American market. Their brand of dark symphonic rock and existentialist and whimsical sections are simply wonderful, they were successful in Italy as many English progressive rock bands were, but due to inner band problems and record label funding failed to make it into the big time.
Give this a go, you won't regret it.
