Episode 9 Albums That Made Me Love Prog Rock
You've probably seen the meme making the rounds called 9 Albums That Made Me. It's supposed to show the albums that formed your musical identity. It's an almost impossible task to come up with just 9 albums so I decided to do album groups that are more focused.
The first one that came to mind is 9 Albums That Made Me Love Prog Rock. All of these albums are from the 1970s, except for KC which is 1969. They came at a time when I was discovering my musical identity so in a sense these are the albums that made me.
I could have easily included more Genesis or more Yes or even more KC but that's the fun of creating these lists - cutting the list to just 9 albums. There are some pretty well known LPs here and a few lesser known entries. One side note - Bill Bruford is on 4 of the 9 albums.
What are your favorite Prog albums?
Cheers!
