For this year's Christmas Special, I dug back deep into the Archives and dusted off the first one, from the very first Season of Prog-Watch back in 2014! On this program I was joined by my youngest (by about a minute) son, Paul, and we chatted and reminisced a little, and played some Christmas favorites from mostly Progressive artists. I updated the tracks to higher quality, and added a few since the show was a little short by today's standards. I hope you enjoy! Happy Holidays...however you celebrate!
This week's program is a variety show with lots of interesting tracks suggested by Guest DJ (and one of my Patrons of the Progressive Arts) Mr. Paul Watson! Plus, another crop from artists featured in this month's PROG Magazine! We'll hear tons of tasty tunes from Pencarrow, 7BZH, Vulgar Unicorn, i Häxa, Demians, Fish On Friday, No Brain Cell, Kalandra, Airbag, Gazpacho, Arabs In Aspic, and Ruby Dawn!

On 2 November, the great Keith Emerson would have turned 80. To honor this anniversary I have remastered the Keith Emerson Tribute program I did in the aftermath of his tragic death. The program has lots of great Emerson music (with The Nice, ELP, and ELPowell) and also features commentary from some great contemporary keyboard players, including Erik Norlander, Aaron Clift, Dave Kerzner, and Luca Zabbini. I hope you will join me in remembering a legend of the Prog Rock genre, who we lost too soon.
