New music on AM

[Andyyyy]

Fellow Moonies,

I am thrilled and honored to have our musical compilation, Giant for an Hour, added to the playlist here on AM. What's even better is that it is on the same day that our friends, Advent, have their new CD added.

I am posting a playlist here because this is a compilation of several artists and should you hear a song you like and look to see what's playing, you won't recognize that it's from this CD. Should you be curious enough to request a song or two, you will also need to search by artist or song name. I am also posting the purchase information should you decide you just have to have this, and it doesn't come up from the list.

This was done by musicians on the Gentle Giant list. All proceeds go to the List fund, we are not making this for profit. It is for the love of music.

I hope you all enjoy this collection of prog tunes!
