Discovery 4: Ayreon

http://youtu.be/dfYD5urjZGs

King of concept albums, musically excellent, lyrically somewhat overblown at times. Well-known in modern prog circles, but maybe new to some.

Discovery #3 Pain Of Salvation

An excellent Swedish "progressive metal" band. First Abba, then Roxette, now this. Thank you Sweden.

Jazz/Rock with occasional bluegrass. Amazing musicians

New series

Now that this blog is being piped (albeit not perfectly) automatically to Twitter (@purplebms) and Facebook (Purpleproject), and in the gap before the next album is made, I will start some series of "interesting" posts. Next up: The discovery series - lesser known prog that I like and admire.

Camel, beautiful, haunting and classic prog.
