Prog n Roll radio show, incl. song requests (10/3/2019). The complete playlist...

Hello all!
  Last night, one more Prog n Roll radio show was on air as usual. This time the playlist was including the songs that our listeners asked for. 
  During the previous weeks, we were asking from our listeners to request a song of their choice and we would play it during last night's show. Some responded, some others didn't.
  The truth is that once more the playlist was including some great songs, and it was kind of mixed up, as you will see by yourselves...
  So, here's the playlist from last night's show:

1st Part: THE NEAL MORSE BAND: Welcome to the World / SOEN: Covenant / THE LAST DETAIL: Man of our Time / SGT. TENCHIPOOS LONELY BLIMEY BAND: Mexico.

2nd Part: REO SPEEDWAGON: Dead at Last / QUEEN: The Prophet’s Song / BAROCK PROJECT: Broken.

Thank you all!

Prog n Roll's special "epic" show (3/3/2019). The complete playlist and more...

Hello all!
  Last night we celebrated Prog n Roll's 250th broadcast with a special show that included only "epic" songs; and by "epic" I mean songs with a minimum length of 10 minutes.
  We had a good crowd listening once more, and we had lots of fun on the chatbox.
  The playlist was including mostly "modern" stuff and not old ones, as you will realise by looking at it. Because of the length of the songs, we played only eight, which were the following:

1st Part: KAYAK: Walk Through Fire / PORCUPINE TREE: Anesthetize.

2nd Part: GANDALF’S FIST: The Lamplighter (Pts IX – XIII) / DRIFTING SUN: Cascading Tears.

3rd Part: THRESHOLD: Lost in Translation / AYREON: The Day that the Wolrd Breaks Down.

4rth Part: STEVE HACKET: Those Golden Wings / MARILLION: Grendel.

I would like to thank all those who keep listening and supporting our show for so many years. Your love and support means a lot to us.

Thank you very much!

Prog n Roll Radio Show (24/2/2019). The complete playlist and more...

Hello all!
  On Sunday the 24th of February, one more Prog n Roll radio show was online as usual. This was our 249th show, and next Sunday we will be celebrating Prog n Roll's 250 broadcasts.
  This time we wanted to do something slightly different, so we focused on the personal careers of musicians who became famous (or less famous) as members of a band or bands. So, the playlist included songs taken by their solo albums exclusively.
I'm certain that it was a very interesting and informative show, and I got the feeling that our listeners enjoyed it.
Here's the complete playlist:

1st Part: DAVID GILMOUR: Murder / ROGER DALTREY: Under a Ragging Moon / ROKY ERICKSON: Burn the Flames / PETER BARDENS: Write My Name in the Dust.

2nd Part: MAGGIE BELL: A Woman Left Lonely / DAVID BYRON: Man Full of Yesterdays / ROGER GLOVER: Little Chalk Blue / GARY BROOKER: Old Manhattan Melodies / JUDY DYBLE: C’est La Vie.

Prog n Roll radio show with The Windmill as special guests (17/2/2019). The complete playlist and more...

Hello all!
  Last night one more special Prog n Roll radio show was online, but this time with one week delay. On Sunday the 10th of February we were supposed to have the members of the Norwegian band The Windmill as our special guests and present their latest album Tribus, but everything went wrong. The day of the show we had a major problem with the radio station's server and we couldn't connect. So, we cancelled the show and we finally did it last night, with one week delay.
  So, we had the pleasure to have most of the band's members on our chatbox, together with many of our usual listeners, and members of other bands as well. 
 We had a great playlist prepared, especially for the occasion, that was including all 5 songs of the album Tribus, plus - not one - but two music quizzes!
The guys of The Windmill were kind enough to offer 2 very beautiful things to give out as prizes, and for that reason we did 2 music quizzes.
  The winner of the first quiz was Stefan from Germany who won a very beautiful T-Shirt of the band, and the second winner was Ben from UK, who won a signed CD copy of Tribus.
 I really believe that it was a very good and interesting show, and from time to time we had lots of fun on the chatbox.
I'm pretty sure that everybody enjoyed it, and the 2 hours passed really fast!
Here you take a look at the whole playlist:
Part 1: THE TEA PARTY: The River / RIVAL SONS: Tied Up / BLOOD CEREMONY: Ballad of the Weird Sisters / THE WINDMILL: Dendrophenia / PROGELAND: Dead Calm Waters.
Part 2: JUDY DYBLE: See Emily Play (Quiz) / THE WINDMILL: Play With Fire / JETHRO TULL: Nothing is Easy / THE WINDMILL: Storm.
Part 3: JOE COCKER: You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away (Quiz) / URIAH HEEP: Rainbow Demon / WEED: Sweet Morning Light / THE WINDMILL: Make Me Feel.
Part 4: STEVE HACKETT: Hungry Years / THE WINDMILL: The Tree. 
I would like to thank all those who chose to listen to our show once more, and especially the members of The Windmill for tuning in and for offering those nice stuff to give out as prizes.
Thank you all!

  From our behalf, we will present their latest - very good - album Tribus, among other things of course. But that's not all. We will also have 2 music quizes, and the winners will take as prize some very nice and kind of unique things.
 The playlist is ready, and includes many new stuff, mixed with old and classic ones. 
  In my opinion this is going to be a very informative and highly enjoyable show, so try not to miss it!

Prog n Roll radio show (3/2/2019). The complete playlist and more...

Hello all!
  Since last night it was the first show of the month, we presented another concept album, like we always do. This time we went for something classic and noizy. We chose to present the album of Iron Maiden, 7th Son of a 7th Son. In my opinion, this is NOT a concept album, but since it is included in every list with the Rock/Metal concept albums, I decided to go with the flow... (Even Bruce Dickinson admited that it wasn't a concept album, but who cares really)? The point is that it is a great album that many people grew up with, and that was made clear last night, when our listeners became so happy with it! Nobody was expecting something like that, so we caught them by surprise.
  During the 1st half hour of the show, we played songs from brand new releases exclusively, then, during the 2nd part, we played songs from some rather "modern" releases, and then the presentation begun. We played 5 songs from "7th Son", plus a few others in a - more or less -similar style.
 We had a good crowd gathered once more, and as far as I saw, everybody had some great time.
Here you can take a look at the complete playlist:

1st Part: SOEN: Rival / THE NEAL MORSE BAND: The Great Adventure / FOCUS: Heaven / STEVE HACKETT: Beasts in our Time.

2nd Part: CORVUS STONE: Brand New Day / CRIPPLED BLACK PHOENIX: Nebulas / WHOOPIE CAT: Tell Me You’ll Stay / LEPROUS: Angel.

3rd Part: IRON MAIDEN: The Clairvoyant / MONUMENT: Hair of the Dog / IRON MAIDEN: Can I Play With Madness? / WARLORD: Lost and Lonely Days / IRON MAIDEN: The Evil that Men do.

4rth Part: IRON MAIDEN: Infinite Dreams / VISIGOTH: Silver and Steel / BLACK SABBATH: Neon Knights / IRON MAIDEN: 7^th Son of a 7^th Son.

  I would like to thank all those who chose to spend their Sunday evening with our show. Much appreciated! 

  Next Sunday we will have another special show, that will include members of a very good band as our "guests on the chatbox". But more on that, later.

Thank you all, have a great week!
