Show Notes for Episode 12 Hello there! These are the show notes for Episode 12: “Wonderful Weirdos Part 1: Kate Bush and Adrian Belew” of the Progressive Rock Appreciation Society Podcast. Holy crap, we made it! (Transcriptions of this episode coming soon.) Links from the Podcast Here are a few links to some of the things I mention in today’s episode. Thanks for listening! Kate Bush In this episode, I appreciate the heck out of Kate Bush. If you want to learn more, here are a few things to check out: * That BBC documentary I was super into: The Kate Bush Story: Running Up That Hill, 2014* Never For Ever (1978) (or check out the super epic and kind of proggy track “Breathing”)* Hounds of Love (1985) (or buy the remastered version on vinyl—well worth it!)* The music video for Babooshka—I didn’t mention it in the podcast, but it is phenomenal. This record is way too good. None of us deserve it. (Listen to it anyway.) Adrian Belew Also had a great time talking to Rich about Adrian Belew! Here are some links to some of the different things we mentioned. * King Crimson, Beat (1982) (or, seriously, buy it on vinyl—try Discogs)* Twang Bar King (1983)* Adrian Belew’s amazing bass player Julie Slick* Adrian Belew 2019 tour (go see it!)* Check out Rich’s blog, Createdigger’s Corner, at musicallyrich.tumblr.com. He’s a super insightful dude who you need to have on your radar no matter what genre you’re into, because he’s into everything.* The Record Collector’s Journal—for the serious collector. (Spoiler alert: this is a book I made!) Record Tote Bags Now Available! So, here’s news: I’m so very excited to announce these Progressive Rock Appreciation Society record tote bags—with the logo for the first time ever in print! I’m working with a local printer to produce these super high-quality canvas vinyl totes. They’re four inches wide, and they can comfortably fit 20+ records. (I know, I checked.) And if you order them before April 15, I’ll throw in a free gift with every order! These record tote bags are absolutely gorgeous. I’m so extremely proud of them, and I hope you love them half as much as I do. (Thanks, Emily, for the kick in the pants!)

These are the show notes for Episode 9! I have recently gotten my hands on the Yes: Steven Wilson Remixes box set and A Life In Yes: the Chris Squire Tribute, so in addition to finishing up the tour of my prog rock record collection, I'm going to talk a lot about those. I will also talk about seeing Alan Parsons Live Project at the State Theater in Minneapolis earlier this month. Enjoy!

In today's episode, we take another look at my prog rock record collection, then head down to Barely Brothers Records and try to sell some of the records I'm not listening to. (Spoiler alert: I ended up trading for something I really wanted.)

In today's episode, I talk with DJ Musically Rich about building and curating a prog rock record collection. I also give you a tour of my own record collection (with more to come in the next episode!).

These are the show notes for Episode 6 with Lisa! We talk more live prog: Carl Palmer, Todd Rundgren, and Asia (as usual), and I explain what it's like to go on a road trip with me (hint: lots of Peter Gabriel). Also, hot news on the brand-new voice mail situation, in which YOU could potentially hear YOUR voice on the show. Enjoy the episode!

In today's episode, Lisa and Maggie reminisce about seeing various members of Yes live in various contexts---including, finally, Yes. Lisa also talks about her first time seeing Yes in 2013, with Chris Squire, and Maggie caps off the adventures with a look at the first two dates of Yes's 50th Anniversary tour. (Also: the Progressive Rock Appreciation Society podcast is now open to sponsors!)

Lisa of Slow No Wake waxes poetic about Steve Lukather and Toto, Steve Howe and Yes, and how Alan Parsons Project's "Games People Play" makes a perfect bridge between progressive rock and yacht rock.
