Episode 118: Sound Chaser 286

The Sound Chaser Progressive Rock Podcast is on the air. On the show this time we take a tour through styles of progressive music. Most of the samples come from a while ago, so we can see how and where certain aspects of progressive music took shape. We get some old school progressive rock, some jazz fusion, some electronic prog, some symphonic prog, and perhaps a few surprises along the way. All that, plus news of tours and releases on Sound Chaser.
