The Aristocrats    "Pressure Relief"    Somewhere?, 2017

This phenomenal  trio is probably more in the Jazz Fusion category than in Prog Rock, but the three are amazing to watch. Guthrie Govan (guitar), Marco Minneman (drums), and Bryan Beller (bass) are each musicians of the highest level, and together they are unbelievable. Guthrie toured with Steven Wilson for a year or two, who says that Guthrie "...can mop the floor with most guitarists." He was worried that Guthrie would be put off by being asked to play some of the 3 and 4 note riffs he had written, to which Guthrie replied "It's okay, because they're the right 4 notes." Enjoy!

Re: Prog Rock Wednesdays

Very smooth !
These guys are really polished musicians and it appears that they are enjoying what they play.
I quite agree - it has a jazzy tone to it.

Thanks for sharing TF.

Tangerine Dream    "Song of the Whale"    London, 2010

Live Version:    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vv1-XqZdvDk

Studio Version:    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccfaDlQls5w

The live clip is the best one I could find, although it's very much abbreviated from the original studio version. The whole song depicts both the beauty and power of our amazing aquatic mammal co-inhabitants. The studio clip is accompanied by some beautiful underwater filming, which is well blended with the music itself.

This was from TD's 29th album "Underwater Sunlight", which was released in 1986. To date they have released over 100 albums! It was the first appearance of keyboardist Paul Haslinger, who joined the group following the departure of Peter Baumann. It was also marked an increased front-and-center role for the electric guitar, which was played at first by TD's founder, the late Edgar Froese (1944 - 2015). It also marked a fairly complete departure from their "electronic ambient music" roots, as they began adding more instrumentation in succeeding albums (saxophone, flute, guitar, percussion, violin, etc.).

Re: Prog Rock Wednesdays

Amazing sounds from a talented group of people with sounds that are above normal groups. This one is great and a wonderful choice. One of the best progressive groups I have listened to in a long time. Thank you for this one.
