This is such a wonderful read, full of facts and info on all the great prog bands. I have discovered so much music I missed along the way.

If you’re of a certain age, and loved early progressive rock this is the book for you… has made me go back and reassess many albums from long ago and with the joy of the internet download a few essential missing ones!!

A comprehensive review of all the influential bands during the early progressive music era. Written in chronological order and impeccably researched. A delight to read straight through and a brilliant reference book to peruse at your leisure. Highly recommended.

Great book, but noticed an error, the band Pallas are not or have ever been English, they are from my hometown Aberdeen in Scotland, a small matter but an important one. But a great book none the less, well worth buying.
