12 Steps Beyond Prog #197
Hello:
Alabama success! Yes.
1978 Prog rock failures? Yes!
That means you had to wait till now to hear them! These did not even make it to release they were so out of touch with the rise of poorly recorded snarls of the time.
This was to bad. Music started to loose its distributional diversity and we shuffled off to our camps, flying our musical flags that Id'ed us and our clans.
We missed the point. Music is universal. Joke yes. It is all beautiful. Even you.
Because this is 12 Steps Beyond is just that:
Smithereens like Tom Petty and his band stepped out and showed us they could play, The Smithereens were no different. Tonight a surprising example of their progressive steps beyond will be featured.
At Midnight in Portland Oregon and Vancouver Washington on the following FM modulated frequencies.
107.1 In PDX and Beaverton
91.1 In East PDX
99.9 In Vancouver
And streaming on XRAY.FM as long as NET NEUTRALITY remains intact.
