Author: The Doorway

I'm a musician and presenter of the Doorway Rock Show on 103 The Eye and Progzilla Radio. My show takes listeners on a journey through the very best Progressive Rock. It's a blend of old and new; showing how the classic artists of the 1970s have influenced the very best contemporary artists. I'm also proud to providee a platform for those artists to get their work exposed to a wider audience.

Hello everyone

Here is the podcast of the show first broadcast on 103 The Eye, here in the UK on Saturday. I must say it made a pleasant change to sit outside in the garden and listen to the show live, on a warm balmy evening, with a cool beer. Hope the neighbours are into prog too…..

The week’s show takes a side on look at 1974 and also features tracks from NOTP performers, OAK and FORS as well as the usual mix of old and new.

Enjoy and have a great week!

Happy Monday Folks!

Here’s the podcast for the show broadcast on Saturday on 103 The Eye in the UK.

There are tracks from The?Lie, the new album by Seven Steps To The Green Door and from Airbag guitarist, Bjorn Riis, along with the usual mix of classic prog right back to the 1970s.

The Night of The Prog Special Show, featuring tracks from the artists performing at this year’s festival, is under construction so its the last call for requests and suggestions.

Have a great week!  Ian

Hello All

Here’s the show from Saturday, broadcast on 103 The Eye here in the UK.

Calling all Night Of The Prog Bands and fans! I’m currently putting together an NOTP special, featuring music from all the bands performing this year. Rather than put the setlist together myself, I’d love your help in choosing the songs. The show will air in the middle of June so let me know as soon as possible. Email me on i.wilmot256@btinternet.com or post a message on Facebook.

Next week’s show will feature a couple of tracks from the fabulous new album from Big Big Train.

Have a great week.

Hello everyone. Here is this week’s podcast of the show broadcast on 103 The Eye on Saturday. Hope you all enjoy the ‘connections’ theme. Its something I’m going to do more of in future shows. Thanks to my friend, Ken Hudson, for some constructive critique and the suggestion of doing a track list. I’ll do that for the next show which will be on the 18th May as I’m currently on holiday.

Have a great week.
