I guess my Prog roots started out with the first Boston album, not really prog, but it was different than anything else going on. I saw my first offical concert (that means mom didnt have to take me, she did take me to see ELP!) With Boston ,Rush and Starcastle. Wow! what a line-up.I went out and bought all the current albums by those groups at the time. A Farewell to Kings and Fountains of Light.

I always enjoyed the Italian band PFM, but never had the chance to see them live. I became a huge Rush and Max Webster head and then gravitated into bands like King Crimson, UK,Uriah Heep, Kansas early Judas Priest and Iron Maiden etc...

I wish kids could somehow be exposed to some of this great music instead of the same old boring stuff that I hear being passed off as the next big thing.
