Yeah, I have to agree. There is nothing even close to a universally accepted definition of progressive rock. I don't think we should debate the selections that people choose to post here, for the most part. If someone starts posting Taylor Swift albums here, then yeah, a little clarification would be in orderBut most of what gets posted here is close enough for the spirit of the thread.
Amen.

Big Big Train's Folklore album.
Just sounds better and better every time I listen.

I did get back over there and picked it up. I put it on and sat down and read the back of the album and realized where I knew them from. The reference to "PGU" is to the college radio station in Champaign-Urbana, WPGU, where Starcastle is from and where I went to school. Good album, thanks. Bringing back some memories.

Up Next will be a band that I bet 99.999% of you have never heard of. These guys are close friends of C2Rice how has not been on music at all lately. Definitely falls in the prog category. It is their own unique sound with influence from Tull, Little Feet, Yes and many, many others:
You can hear the entire album here:
They have been approached by a label to re-release this outstanding album.
1977- Hands - Hands - (Ashroom SP-96001) EAC FLAC's

Yea, I am perhaps that less than 1% that knows about this Texas band, and that record was re-released by the Shroom label, they have since released a few cds since. Gentle Giant, Jethro Tull and Happy the Man are often used to describe the Hands sound. Great album and would have otherwise been lost in obscurity had the Shroom Label not unearthed the lp for reissue. They have a very unTexas sound, if fact, they could be well mistaken for a British band given the musical influences, highly recommended! Thanks for sharing this one, excellent choice.
