June 29 & 30 - Pawn Ears . . . Stage Left
 

I. Technical prowess and an almost theatrical approach have been the hallmarks of Van Der Graff Generator since their first album. Their album 'Pawn Hearts' ('71) is no exception, blending Hammond Organ swells, Manic Percussion, Peter Hammill's impassioned vocals, and guest Robert Fripp on guitar.[list=1][*]Lemmings (Including Cog) (Hammill) - 11:39[*]Man-Erg (Hammill) - 10:22[*]Plague of Lighthouse Keepers/Eyewitness... (Hammill) - 23:05[/LIST=1]
II. If it is possible to have Progressive Punk, then Uz Jsme Doma are a great example of the sub-genre. Their 1999 album 'Ears (Usi)' takes them further from the traditional Czech territory into a closer to western sound.[list=1][*]Barefeet (Dolansky/Wanek/Wanek) - 2:24 [*]Thin Ice (Dolansky/Wanek/Wanek) - 3:47 [*]Cowboy Song (Dolansky/Wanek/Wanek) - 4:13 [*]Eye (Dolansky/Wanek/Wanek) - 4:01 [*]Ears (Dolansky/Wanek/Wanek) - 8:30 [*]Fear (Dolansky/Wanek/Wanek) - 3:19 [*]Sweat (Dolansky/Wanek/Wanek) - 5:15 [*]River (Dolansky/Wanek/Wanek) - 4:06 [*]Silence (Dolansky/Wanek/Wanek) - 5:09 [/LIST=1]
III. From the massive success of their previous four albums, Rush compiled a truly magnificent live album that still defines the power their concerts can reach. Their second live album 'Exit . . . Stage Left' ('81) delivers a nicely condensed version of the power contained in the previous four studio albums.[list=1][*]Spirit of Radio - 5:13 [*]Red Barchetta - 6:49 [*]Yyz - 7:45 [*]Closer to the Heart - 3:08 [*]Beneath, Between and Behind (Lifeson/Peart) - 2:36 [*]Jacob's Ladder - 8:49 [*]Broon's Bane - 1:37 [*]The Trees - 4:50 [*]Xanadu - 12:11 [*]Freewill - 5:33 [*]Tom Sawyer - 5:03 [*]La Villa Strangiato - 9:38 [/LIST=1]

Looking forward to this one. Yes, there is such a beast as "prog punk." The Stranglers come to mind, as does some early Ultravox with John Foxx. Even U2's first album touches this area. I know there's more, I just can't think of it at the moment.
