06 The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Broadcast October 26, 2014
Chronicling the career of the phenomenally successful Scottish band formed by the combination of Alex Harvey, former winner of the “Scotland’s Answer to Tommy Steele” competition, ex skiffle musician and five-year resident of the pit band for the musical “Hair” and Tear Gas, a prog band with aggressive up-front musical skills but lacklustre stage personas. Alex described them as “raucous, loud, heavy and undisciplined… It was a very happy marriage”. Alex loved the musicianship, but taught them how to perform, producing a band with great musical chops who were also terrific to watch.

Broadcast September 14, 2014. Part 1 of several.
Prog, and especially Brit Prog is hard to pin down but is mostly characterised by quirky titles, odd time signatures, lots of improvisation and a tendency towards sly humour. Sometimes it can go over the top a bit as well. There will be more…
