This week on Prog-Watch the great Dave Kerzner is my guest! Dave talks candidly about his past and his current projects, including his Sonic Elements tribute to Yes, his career retrospective compilation, and the two albums he has made with his new band, In Continuum! Along the way I’ll be playing lots of great music from Sound Of Contact, Dave’s solo albums, the Yes tribute, and In Continuum!
