Radio Free D’ni

03 British Progressive Rock, pt. 1

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…

01 Introductions

The playlist for our first show:  Titled “Introductions” it was, as you might expect, about introducing ourselves and the show.  All the tracks are either concert openers or first tracks from first albums.  Apart from “Listen To The Music” which is more of a gentle suggestion.
