Prog Rock mix

Maybe a bit left field, but to me there is some kind of connection. It's the kind of poetic spirit... :shock:
 
"In the Court of The Crimson King" is one of those defining mo,ments in childhood.
I first heard it in 1976, when me and my mate Johnnie cycled over to see his school mate Harry, whose parents were a bit alternative...
His dad was a nose for Oddbins, and his ,mum was a bit... odd.
They lived in two cottages by the river that had been knocked together, by knocking holes in the wall with a sledgie, and leaving it at that.
Being 1976, it was HOT, and we were 13. After a skinny dip in the river, Harry's mum turned King Crimson up to 11 and pranced around the orchard in the nuddy... :shock:
It still affects me!
 
Strawbs very definitely count as prog, though their stuff is quite varied, and of variable quality... some of it fantastic though, some great bass playing.
