Greetings to all!

Here’s the podcast of Saturday’s Doorway, broadcast here in the UK on 103 The Eye.

The show closes with the song that started it all for me all those years ago, and I’m refering to The Doorway by Spock’s Beard.  There’s also the usual mix of old and new classic songs from all genres of prog!

Have a great week!
