Prog-Watch 201
In the first part of this week’s episode Tony and Dave feature music by ARC, a collaboration between UK electronic musician and composer Ian Boddy and Mark Shreeve from the UK Progressive Electronic group Red Shift. Fans of vintage Tangerine Dream will love this stuff! In the second part of the show, the guys have some exclusive new music from Grand Tour, a sort of Scottish Prog “Super-Group” featuring Joe Cairney and Bruce Levick (currently of Comedy Of Errors), Hew Montgomery (of Abel Ganz fame), and Mark Spalding (formerly of Comedy Of Errors). This stuff is really good, and you get to hear it FIRST on Prog-Watch!
