Hello and welcome to a Night of the Prog special show.

 

I recorded this edition of the show over the weekend that we all expected to be at this iconic festival so the second hour of the show is devoted to bands that were due to play at NOTP and have subsequently re-confirmed for next year.

 

Listen out as well for the track from the stunning new Fish on Friday album – Black Rain – its fab!

 

Have a great week.

Happy Sunday Folks

Here’s the podcast of last night’s FM Radio show broadcast on 103 The Eye here in the UK.

There is something for everyone in today’s show! Classic and unusual tracks from Robert Wyatt; brand new music from former Wang Chung singer, Jack Hues, and a track from his stunning new solo album, Primitif. The show closes with a wonderful track from Big Big Train.

Have a great week!

Happy Sunday Folks

The sun is shining again and we seem to be on the long path to normality!

Here is the podcast of last night’s FM Radio Show on 103 The Eye here in the UK.

There is the usual mix of old and new, including a brief look at the career of Manfred Mann and a track from a fantastic debut album by UK singer/songwriter/musician AA Williams.

I’ve also finally got round to playing an epic track that’s been on my mind to play for the last two years or so.

Have a great week!

Hello and Happy Father’s Day!!

Here is the podcast of last night’s FM radio show broadcast on 103 The Eye here in the UK.

We start with all time classic Whiter Shade of Pale and close with a monster of track by Polish band Riverside. In between there’s an exploration of how the Mellotron has been used over the decades and the very best selection of tracks, old and new.

Take great care and have a great week!

Happy Sunday Folks! I hope you are all OK and enjoying the sunshine.

Here is the podcast of last night’s Doorway, broadcast here in the UK on 103 The Eye on FM (and online!)

In advance of the Genesis Reunion Gigs later in the year (hopefully!!), I have book-ended the show with tracks from each end of the band’s history.

In between, there is the usual mix of old and new and general prog loveliness!

Stay safe and have a good week.
