The words “ridiculously catchy” are seldom applied to Soft Machine, a band prone to complex and challenging jazz compositions. But the opener of their Sevenalbum is, well, a ridiculously catchy progressive rock song: Composer Karl Jenkins anchors it with a sprightly riff on electric piano, which keyboardist Mike Ratledge (by now the only original m...
Focus was (and is) essentially a progressive rock band of serious players with classical and jazz leanings. But they also had an eccentric sense of humor, which often got aired on their rare vocal tracks. “Hocus Pocus” started as a rehearsal joke, with Jan Akkerman playing a crunching arena riff and organist Thijs van Leer responding with his best ...
This began as singer/guitarist John Lees’ revenge on a journalist who’d called his band the “poor man’s Moody Blues”: He was miffed enough to go home and rewrite “Nights in White Satin,” using the same rhyme scheme and the same tempo, plus a chorus built around “I love you.” Against all odds, he came up with a beautiful tune in its own right, so th...
Dream Theater are the kings of prog metal, but this 24-minute opus lands solidly on the prog side: If you thought they were always into shredding, you need to hear the tasteful, melodic touch of this prog rock song’s first twelve minutes. (Fear not, the shredding comes on the second twelve, and it’s perfectly thrilling.) You could spend weeks decod...
Nektar was among the most melodic prog bands, with clearer Beatles roots than most. The title track and centerpiece of their best-known concept album, this borrows a bit of its spacey groove from “Sun King” – which in turn borrowed from Fleetwood Mac’s “Albatross.” Nektar’s song can stand proud besides those two classics, with its anthemic chorus a...
Gong’s merry prankster Daevid Allen ends the Radio Gnome Invisible trilogy the best possible way, with an eleven-minute prog rock song that throws absolutely everything into the mix: Endless tempo changes, dazzling solos (take a bow, Steve Hillage and Didier Malherbe), out-of-nowhere pop hooks and boundless optimism. Absurd and wonderful.
The Tangent’s leader Andy Tillison is one of the sharpest writers in modern prog, and he’s at his wittiest on this sung/spoken 16-minute track. The lyrics detail everything that went wrong when he tried to visit the Statue of Liberty on a US tour, including meeting a cop who thought he was in Rush. Musically it references early Genesis and vintage ...
Side one of Leftovertureopened with the breakthrough hit “Carry On Wayward Son,” but its finale may be the definitive Kansas track. “Miracles” glides seamlessly from its pastoral verses to its complex instrumental workout, like most Kansas songs it’s all about spiritual searching and the rewards that can be uncovered. Also makes great use of Kansas...
We’ll let you decide if Krautrock is part of prog, or something else altogether. But this is one of its definitive tracks, as Can subvert pop by writing a bubble-gummy love song, stripping it down to its core, and playing it for 21 hypnotic minutes. It’s downright perverse – and improbably enough, it’s also a lot of fun.
The original, four-piece Caravan’s finest moment. For a side-long piece this is remarkably tight and accessible, thanks to the easy-rolling groove of the instrumental sections and the sublime melodies of the two vocal parts. The second vocal bit, sung by bassist Richard Sinclair, makes especially lovely use of an English folk influence.

- The Moody Blues – Nights In White Satin. Progressive Rock hat viele Vorläufer, vom psychedelisch angehauchten Pop der Beach Boys und der Beatles über die frühen Rock-Abenteuer von Pink Floyd bis zu allerlei Experimental-Musik à la Frank Zappa und Captain Beefheart.
- King Crimson – The Court Of The Crimson King. Als eines der ersten wirklich reinrassigen Progressive-Alben – und garantiert auch eines der besten aller Zeiten – gilt King Crimsons Debütalbum aus dem Jahr 1969.
- Genesis – The Return Of The Giant Hogweed. King Crimson hatten also direkt mit einem Meisterwerk die Prog-Ära eingeleitet. Doch das schüchterte die Konkurrenz nicht ein, sondern spornte sie an.
- Emerson, Lake & Palmer – Tarkus. Zu den ganz großen Prog-Giganten gehören natürlich auch ELP. Das Trio hat den Ausdruck „Bombast-Rock“ quasi erfunden. Mit ihrem zweiten Album Tarkus (1971) zeigten die Briten, in welche ungeahnten Dimensionen man mit Rockmusik vordringen kann und führten gleichzeitig ein Millionenpublikum an Progressive Rock heran.
1) Supper’s Ready - Genesis. from Foxtrot (Charisma, 1972) ‘ The frog was a prince, the prince was a brick, the brick was an egg – and the egg was a bird. Hadn’t you heard? Well, almost 50 years on from the creation of Supper’s Ready, you probably have heard this invaluable information.
