Kansas - Carry On Wayward Son" 1976 Video
this is a "hit song" by kansas unfortunetly kansas footage is rare to come by, i would have prefermed many other kansas songs, or even better actual concerts yet i lack the resources for this endevor, truly a great band, playing progressive southern music, the concept genius, the outcome brillient just dig the grooves man
Yes - Close To The Edge
by many this piece is considered the pinnicle of progressive rock although quite stunning in length (that also happens to be what she said)this work stands out amoung other yes compositions for its musical complexity, yet retaining restraint and remaining melodic, with each member preforming in perfect harmony and unison. pure bliss
Emerson Lake and Palmer California Jam
emerson lake and palmer are ground breaking, musicians, although there was a backlash against prog rock, and their supposdly ridiculous shows, that showcase the bands talent, and their individual talents, some people might call their music atonal and might use other such vulgarities, this concert should easily put their doubts to rest. need more convincing, get the album, welcome back my friends to the show that never ends, side 1 second track, i rest my case, welcome to musical liberation.
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
neil youngs song into the black was done at a time when music was changing, from amazing to garbage, although a few good bands, the damned, or the clash came from this time, the next few years spelled the downfall of culture and taste, this song is done in a vain last attempt before the presence of mtv, which destroys music, creates more vapid idiocy, and promotes holliganism argh it makes me sick, but this song does rule all over the place like i did last night... 3 times
The Band - The Weight from The Last Waltz (1978)
Mahavishnu Orchestra: One Word
the mahavishnu orchestra at this time was composed of John McLaughlin - guitar, Rick Laird - Bass Billy Cobham - Percussion, Jerry Goodman - violin, and Jan Hammer - keyboards, moog. this virtuoso band is truly the pinnicle of jazz rock fusion, they are all masters of their respective instruments and make dazziling and brillient compositions which are still marvelous to experiance to this day
