Leon Alvarado plays keyboards.

This single from Anderson, Bruford Wakeman and Howe is out of print, of course, but these days, it’s not that hard (or sometimes expensive) to get your hands on something like this.

The first thing to mention here is that this is a collaborative effort between former Yes singer Jon Anderson and former Counting Crows bassist Matt Malley.

This is a new audiophile record. It’s a classy set on heavy duty vinyl.

It used to be that we wouldn’t review things that were out of print.

Shoegaze, psychedelic rock, space rock and prog all seem to merge on this beast.

I can see some people arguing with this landing under progressive rock.

I recently reviewed an album from this band and really liked them.

This is a double disc retrospective from Dreadnaught.

This is such a great album.

It might be obvious, but this has always been one of my favorite albums from Electric Light Orchestra.

The third album from Emerson, Lake and Palmer this has some great pieces of music.

Antoine Fafard first came to prominence as the leader and bass player for the outfit Spaced Out.

I really like the music on this disc a lot.

This is definitely going to be the kind of review where people argue about it landing under progressive rock.

This year Genesis released a career spanning box set. I don’t have that one yet, but I figured that this would be a good time to take a look at this one that came out several years ago.

This new Gentle Giant recording was available before as an inferior bootleg.

Gong covers a lot of musical territory here.

I love this album. It’s got quite a wide range of sounds.

Best known for his work as the bassist in Soft Machine, this is the first disc of a ten disc set of archival releases from Hopper.

Hugh Hopper is probably best known as one of the founding members of Soft Machine.

This live album is pretty great. .

This is quite cool. The music ranges from Vangelis like music to territory like Enigma, Pink Floyd and more.

Kansas recorded this album with the London Symphony Orchestra.

This was King Crimson’s second album. Greg Lake continued to provide vocals here (with the exception of one song), although he had left the band.

Is this album progressive rock? No.

I’m going to say this right up front, this might be the best album yet from Lunatic Soul.

I actually wound up with two copies of this set, the standard edition and the special edition.

In our quest to start filling some of the holes in our archives, I decided to review this Marillion disc.

I can see people arguing with this landing under progressive rock.

The most dramatic thing about this set is the vocal presence.

I’ve always liked this album a lot.

This is instrumental space rock.

The newest album from Oresund Space Collective, this is a double disc set.

I can definitely see people arguing about this landing under progressive rock.

This is an album that’s tough to classify. I’ve put it under progressive rock mainly because the mix of sounds is a very progressive thing.

This was the second album from The Alan Parsons Project.

This album came into being as Pink Floyd were creating the soundtrack to a French film La Vallée.

This is the latest, and according to David Gilmour, the last Pink Floyd album.

This was the first album I ever heard from Renaissance.

Paul Roland’s brand of music is somewhat predictable, but never redundant or monolithic.

I’ve reviewed another album from Space Invaders in this same issue of Music Street Journal.

There are four epic pieces here to make up this set.

I like this album a lot.

Kasim Sulton is best known for his work with Utopia.

I’m sure a lot of people will argue with me putting this under progressive rock. 

This classic Trans-Siberian Orchestra album has just been reissued on vinyl.

When I hear the term “smooth jazz,” I tend to think of the elevator music variety of jazz.

This isn’t progressive rock in the classic sense, but it does have ties to that sound.

This was Frank Zappa’s second solo album.

The third album from this outfit, this is quite strong. I’d have to say that for me personally, the previous disc was better.

If you’re looking for a band that’s easy to describe, Dog Fashion Disco is not your pooch.

I’ve included this in the metal section of Music Street Journal, but it’s not old school metal by any means.

The tale of Rigor Mortis has to be one of the biggest hard luck stories in metal history.

Doing an album of covers seems to be a trendy thing, as it has been for quite a few years.

It’s easy to just disregard dance music.

We’ve been reviewing a steady stream of singles from this outfit.

I remember hearing the title track to this album on the radio all the time in the 1970s.

This is really a bittersweet moment.

This album is a collection of Black 47 political songs.

This is a new limited edition, numbered audiophile reissue of a classic old album.

This set should definitely appeal to fans of 1970s soft rock singers.

The Call were always a legendary band.

I like this set a lot. I would say that not everything here really qualifies as blues, but there is blues in just about all of it.

I vaguely remember liking this outfit back in the day.

As someone who is a big progressive rock fan, it might seem odd to some that I like pop music.

It’s hard to pinpoint this or land it in one particular place. There’s a lot of Americana here, but things like folk music and old time rock and roll are joined by Goth rock and Pink Floyd like elements.

Every song here is solid. It’s in an Americana style that’s quite familiar.

This is kind of an odd review. It seems to have two potential audiences.

This is a four CD box set. It’s got some great performances from the final tour of the Miles Davis Quintet with John Coltrane.

If you like this version of Deep Purple (guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, frontman David Coverdale, bassist/vocalist Glenn Hughes, keyboard player Jon Lord and drummer Ian Paice) you must own this.

This album is made up by a set of modern pop songs with a lot of classic sound built into them.

I can’t praise this album enough. It has a lot in common with a lot of the modern female fronted pop rock out there.

This new edition includes two live tracks.

This live album from Jeff Healey is quite solid.

The one thing you’ll notice first about this album is that Christina Holmes has an exceptional voice.

This digital single is quite cool.

This is quite cool album.

It would be very easy, given the front cover and the sound, to think this was an album released in the 1950s or 1960s.

There are only four songs on this EP, but there is a lot of variety.

There is a real retro, classic soul element to this. That works really well.

Joey Molland is probably best known for his work in Badfinger.

First off, this album is actually released under the name “Joe Molland.”

I’ve always been a big fan of Gary Moore’s brand of rocking blues (or bluesy rock, depending on the song).

There are quite a few elements of progressive rock that show up on this set.

I’ve never heard of this act before, but apparently they have quite a bit of music out there.

This EP is a dance music set. The vocals seem to be a little over-processed for my tastes. 

I like hip hop, I’m just not blown away by all of it.

Jam band sounds, blues, jazz and more are built into this release. It’s got a very classic sound to it.

I suppose these guys are pretty much guaranteed to have a fan base, even before anyone heard them. That’s because the lineup is legendary.

This is kind of hard to classify.

Neal Smith is probably best known for his work with Alice Cooper. 

I love James Lee Stanley’s blend of sounds.

Some bands create songs that are distinctive and unique. Some acts make music that’s complex and genre shattering.

This Australian outfit produces a sound that’s modern, but also classic. They have a dichotomy in terms of both male and female vocals, too.

I suppose if you are releasing an album for the youth crowd raised on modern pop music, it makes sense to lead it off with the song that lands closest to that principle. 

The Thompson Twins were always a cool act.

I’ve reviewed some previous works from Tiebreaker.

The first instinct here is to think that this will be a folk music compilation.

This came out last year, but by the time I got my hands on a copy, our December issue was already published.

There is quite a wide range of sound here.

The blend of rock sounds here is pretty diverse.

This is a new release of a 1969 album from Zephyr.

This is a great concert. There’s no question there. 

I know there are those who disagree with me, but I wouldn’t necessarily consider Deep Purple to be a progressive rock band.

So, the idea behind this was that The Doors chose to make what they called “an imaginary” documentary that just sort of happened around them.

You have to admire the passion and commitment involved here.

I like this period of Genesis a lot. They were touring for the Abacab album.

What an awesome DVD this is.

I love this series. It’s great that we are finally getting to watch these classic Rolling Stones shows at home.

What a great DVD this is.

This is just getting released on BluRay and with an extra concert.
