Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

Hi folks. I've got a number of shows planned which include the likes of Caravan, Edition Especiale, Zappa, Passport, Hatfield North & The McCoy, Rush, Windchase.

Would you like to suggest some groups? If so, please use this thread to do so. I welcome all suggestions. I do value your feedback.

Thanks for your considerations.

See you on the Mooniverse

Dale






(But I cannot guarantee I'll play them.)

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

What about PFM, Focus, ELP?

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

Here are a handful,

Ozric Tentacles - a lot to choose from
Hawkwind - a lot to choose from here
Mahogany Frog - Canadian space rock type stuff
After Crying
Banco

Some of these may have already been covered, unfortunately I don't catch every show.

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

I think that you should feature some of the FARfest groups. The festival appears to be struggling getting off the ground, and any exposure to the groups may help. The 70s synphonic groups playing are:

Alphataurus
Atoll
Cathedral
Cressida
Latte E Miele
Locanda Delle Fate
Maxophone
Mezquita
Pulsar
SBB
Shylock

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

Definately, Lotus. I have done one show on each of them already but there is a deep discography that will be revisited.

Thank you.

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

WHAT!!!! You don't catch every show. :(

Great suggestions. Thank you.

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

As a matter of fact I have contacted Greg about this and we're working on something. Thanks to you suggestion, of course, from an earlier PM.

Thanks!!

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

I could suggest tons of things, but I have my own show to fill. :smirk:

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

That's cool Dale!!!! Thanks.

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

Thanks everyone - keep them coming.

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

If anyone suggests Genesis, Yes, ELP, or King Crimson, I will scream :deadhorse `-(

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

Eloy
Pink Floyd
How about a show on not so known bands or tracks such as The Dark's The Jam and the band Dennis-Hyperthalamus I turned you on to a while back.You could throw in tracks that not every1 would have known of.A show not just about 1 band.

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

No need to suggest those, cause I WILL play them. :smirk: :neener: :smirk:

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

haven't seen anyone suggest Supertramp yet, I wouldn't mind them..

I would second the PFM and Banco though too and Gryphon

OH and how bout the first two Ambrosia albums...that would be cool....

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

i can send you prog music (mp3 format) not available on the moon :-)

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

That might be the crime of the century if Supertramp was left out.

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

That would be great. All I can say is:

MARRY ME!!! :smoooch:

(just kidding)

I'll be in touch. Send me a PM with what you've thought to send in.

Gratefully,

Dale

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

Kip Hanrahan (Coup de Tete and Desire Develops an Edge are 2 good albums)
Carla Bley - she has a lot of interesting stuff
Happy the Man (a personal favorite, not sure if you already featured them...)
Toshiko Akiyoshi- Lew Tabackin Big Band
Oh, a great album that is called That's the way I feel Now- A tribute to Thelonius Monk featuring a bunch of interesting artists paying tribute to the master of spherical oddness :-)

Of course, a few regulars will make comments about how that music is not progressive, how it is "too jazz". So just play more Yes, Genesis, ELP, that's what real music lovers want to hear...

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

I like your answer Dale about Supertramp you are a great professional indeed. Its alot of band that all liked let see.
Ther Watch
Tinifysh
White Willow
La Tulipe Noire
KARFAGEN
HOSTONATEN
HIPGNOSIS
QUIDAM

Ritual
Izz
Galahad
Eyestrings
Little Atlas
Karmakanic
IQ
Martin Orford

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

I'd like to hear some german music. Almost everything with Klaus Schulze or Manuel Gottsching is good, but especially when they are together.

There's also a great live LP by Magma...

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

Dale - how about an Italian show with PFM and Banco? Oh and a side of garlic toast with a nice Chianti.

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

How about an all USA prog show? The United States has some of the best prog in the world. Why not showcase it. Some to consider....

Echolyn
Glass Hammer
Spock's Beard
Neal Morse
Kansas
Dream Theater
Frank Zappa
Mike Keneally
Salem Hill
Discipline
Magellan
Explosions In The Sky
Umphrey's McGee
A Helmet Of Gnats
Tiles
Ring Of Myth
Rocket Scientists

The list can go on and on

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

Dale, I saw no one suggested Saga so how about them. lots of albums.

Re: Looking for suggestions - COTM
 

How about a show that highlights prog for each country.That would give you endless shows.
