Zanov - Open Worlds
Review by Gary Hill
This isn’t progressive rock in the classic sense of the word. It’s progressive music, though.

More
Zanov - Chaos Islands
Review by Gary Hill
This is the second set from this act I’ve reviewed. If you like music like Vangelis and Synergy you will feel right at home here.
More
Zanov - Lost in the Future
Review by Gary Hill
To some degree you know what you will get with Zanov. The music is always electronic keyboard stuff along the lines of Synergy, Vangelis, Kraftwerk and others.

More
Frank Zappa - Roxy and Elsewhere
Review by Steve Alspach
Toward the end of the run of the Mothers of Invention, this 2-LP set was released. Only Zappa would have the -dare I say it? - Unmitigated audacity to release a live album with virtually all new material.
More
Frank Zappa - Hot Rats
Review by Gary Hill
This was Frank Zappa’s second solo album.

More
Frank Zappa - Jazz from Hell
Review by Gary Hill
This is an instrumental jazz album.

More
Frank Zappa - Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch
Review by Gary Hill
This 1982 Zappa album has some cool stuff. It's probably best known for the song "Valley Girl," which features his daughter Moon Unit on spoken vocals.

More
Frank Zappa - Zoot Allures
Review by Gary Hill

This 1976 release was Frank Zappa's only set on Warner Brothers Records. It has the usual type of Zappa weirdness you would expect.


More
Frank Zappa - The Grand Wazoo
Review by Gary Hill
An almost completely instrumental album, if anyone has an argument about Frank Zappa landing under prog rock, they really need to listen to this.

More
Frank Zappa - Waka/Jawaka (vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
This disc was the fourth solo album from Frank Zappa. It was released in 1972.

More
Frank Zappa - Chunga's Revenge (vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
Released in 1970, this was the third solo album from Frank Zappa. The disc saw the debut of Turtles members Flo and Eddie as part of Zappa's band. 

More
Frank Zappa - Burnt Weeny Sandwich (vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
This album, the final credited to The Mothers of Invention, features two vocal tracks, with the remainder of them instrumental.

More
Frank Zappa - Studio Tan (vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
This Frank Zappa disc has some trademark sounds. I think the side long "Greggary Peccary" has quite a bit in common with the "...Yellow Snow..." suite from Apostrophe.  

More
Zeelley Moon - Zeelley Moon
Review by Gary Hill
This album is so strong. The music here is of the melodic progressive rock variety.

More
Zenit - The Chandrasekhar Limit
Review by Gary Hill
One way to look at this CD is that it’s a lot like The Flower Kings.

More
Zenxienz - Cosmosis
Review by Gary Hill
This set is electronic music. Perhaps it's not the tightest fit under progressive rock, but it's clearly progressive music.

More
061180 - I’m Considering Being a Cloud
Review by Gary Hill
Psychedelia, creepy music and more merge into something that’s unusual, but also compelling.

More
Zero Times Everything - Sonic Cinema
Review by Gary Hill
This is very adventurous music. I'm sure it's not the kind of thing that's well-suited for everyone. I really like it a lot, though.

More
Zero Times Everything - Sound Of Music
Review by Gary Hill
This is the second disc from Zero Times Everything. Like the first one that I also reviewed at MSJ, this is exceptional adventurous.

More
Zhongyu - Zhongyu is Chinese for Finally
Review by Gary Hill
Based on the name of the group and the cover, it would be easy to think that Zhongyu was a Chinese band.

More
Lonny Ziblat - Dream Hunting
Review by Gary Hill
You might know Lonny Ziblat from his band Modest Midget. This set lands under progressive rock in part because of that connection.

More
Zierler - Esc
Review by Gary Hill
Featuring members of Beyond Twilight, Halford, Fates Warning, Firewind, Scar Symmetry and Circus Maximus, this album is quite cool.

More
Rocco Zifarelli - Music Unites
Review by Gary Hill

I wasn't sure what to expect with this album. Well, it really blew me away.


More
Ziguri - onetwothreefour
Review by Gary Hill
This is a very weird album. I like the majority of it quite a bit, though.

More
Zilla With Her Eyes Shut - Whisper Whisper (digital single)
Review by Gary Hill

I've landed this under prog. Don't expect old-school progressive rock. This is more of an art rock kind of thing.


More
Zilla With Her Eyes Shut - Zilla With Her Eyes Shut
Review by Gary Hill

I previously reviewed the single "Whisper Whisper" in the last issue of Music Street Journal.


More
The Zodiac - Cosmic Sounds
Review by Gary Hill
I've read that both Roger Waters and Justin Hayward listed this album as an influence on them at least once. Listening to this reissue, it's obvious.

More
Zombie Picnic - A Suburb of Earth
Review by Gary Hill
This instrumental set is part jam band, part trippy psychedelia, part space music and part prog.

More
Zombie Picnic - Rise of a New Ideology
Review by Gary Hill
I reviewed another set from these guys a while back and really liked it. This one is even stronger than that one.

More
Zombie Picnic - Rise of a New Ideology (vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
This is a review of the vinyl version of the new album from Zombie Picnic. I suppose you probably got a lot of that from the title header of this review.
