Jon actually did sing on Mike Oldfields album Crises.

You're right about the Jon link though but the wrong odd one out.

[Yesspaz]

For the record, King Crimson does have a side-long piece. It's called Lizard.

5 - Genesis only one without a new music update?

9 - Oldfield - Anderson only one without a writing credit?

[progdirjim]

shots in the dark
4 - Genesis is the only one that doesn't use a violin?
7 - duke is the only one-word title?:D
10 - UK is the only band name of the bunch

[Wojtek]

A long shot now...
#4 - Genesis, the only band here which did not have a violinist as a member (Curved Air - Eddie Jobson, PFM - Mauro Pagani, East of Eden - Dave Arbus)

And rick - I'll be suprised if your #5 is not correct. Very intelligent :D

[Rick and Roll]

about "home" did it

Jim - was #10 guessed with that already?

[Wojtek]

No, #10 'UK-band' answer is, as said Keithie, wrong :(

[Wojtek]

Apropos #7. I will give you the clues - 3 wrong answers :D :D
Duke - only one from 80's - wrong
Duke - only one with the cover not designed by Hipgnosis - wrong
Duke - only one not mixed at Trident Studios - wrong
:)

[KeithieW]

Jim and Rick get in there with one each.

You guys shore are wrong with #10 so far.

As I said, Jon Anderson is the right reason for #9. In the chat room we'd probably say Hi Gu.......no too easy then :)

No attempts at #3 or #7 yet?

I know nothing about the Strawbs so 3 is out for me.

Is 7 that Duke was released in the 80's? Nah not that easy.

UK is not in mainland Europe but not a prog clue.

(Baiting Keith for clues)

[Wojtek]

I am thinking about 10. Perhaps Keithie wants a band which has members from 3 countries. How about Tangerine Dream. Band have German members, had English member (Steve Jollife). but I can't find anybody from France or the Netherlands

[moses]

10) UK, France, Germany, Netherlands.

From Keithie's clue, I might guess (and this is surely a guess with no research) - Progressive Shores has not done a show on UK prog?

Ok............clues. In no particular order.

1) You may need to "Drum up support" if you want to come on a tour with me.
2) A Blackmore band might be loosely connected here.

but too lazy to check

[Rick and Roll]

the Blackmore. I'm investigating........................

[Wojtek]

Guys, John Ford of Strawbs was playing in Blackmore's Night. Let's follow this trail

[moses]

Upon furthur (ok initial) research, it appears that France is the only one that has been featured on Prog Shores.

[Rick and Roll]

it's rainbow. That I know - Hillage is the only one I can find with Rainbow in it. So two of the other three have Rainbow in a title.

moses you are probably right!

[Wojtek]

...and Russ Ballard left Rod Argent's band and became an extremely successful songwriter ('Since You've Been Gone' - Rainbow). Hmmmm....

[KeithieW]

Well Ricardo.........close........so close I'll give it to you. I was thinking "Trick of the tail because it was the only tour that didn't feature Chester Thompson as guest drummer (or the only one that did feature Bill Bruford)
