Prog Video Sampler

Here's some great old time videos of live Prog Performances:

Prog Rock Britania

Hey everyone. I'm really busy working on final papers and tests for school right now, so I don't have time to write a decent review or article this week. Instead, I'm going to link you to a fantastic Prog Rock Documentary the BBC recently released. It focuses a lot on Proto-Prog, and only covers Britain, but it's got a nice who's who of British Prog and I hope you enjoy it!

The Evolution of Live Prog

I've been watching old concerts on Youtube recently, and I've noticed a cool anomaly:

Pink Floyd, 1969


Curved Air, 1971


Genesis, 1973


Jethro Tull, 1977


Camel, 1984


It seems like the more Prog aged, the more the light shows went away! If you search, you can find videos of prog musicans playing just in suits without any theatrics all over the place as early as 1970.
