The Best of 2016

Hey gang,

Here we have a very small smattering of what made 2016 a good year in prog. It was a good year. The editing was painful as I removed some very good stuff. Nevertheless, what stands is worth your time.

In 2 weeks, we will return to themed shows, perfect album sides, and newer music. Our next theme will be a sampler of poetry in prog. You remember in high school or college there were those big think anthologies of poetry. We are going to find connections to famour poets within some of our favorite music. We plan to get our words worth of the roads less traveled, and visit the loves of Poe and Shakespeare. Who knows where the load may lead us, only a fool would say. It should be a fun trip down an unexpected chasm. Drop us a line on our facebook feed if you have any input. Our email is still having some trouble so message us on Facebook and we will hear you.
