@Simonmoon x2 thanks for the recommendations especially the descriptions. Will check out some. Familiar with IQ. Maybe not pure prog but I have been loving and impressed with Opeth's Pale Communion. Amazing talent and sound. Unlike earlier metal-grunting vocal style. I'm sure metal heads will say they sold out. Love the my three sons avatar. |
So hard to recomend prog in the Genesis vein, but here goes, if you like early Genesis you might like these- Porcupine Tree "Stupid Dream" Caravan "In the land of Grey and pink" Strawbs " From the Witchwood" Camel "Rain Dances" @simonmoon - I saw Anglagard at Nearfest, three mellotron viking prog, tho I prefer Anekdoten's spin on Viking Prog (my word).
All on utube but sometimes my favorite stuff took a few listens to digest and appreciate.

If you like story/songs like 'Get 'em Out by Friday', I would recommend the one and only album called '9 Parts To the Wind' by a band called Strange Days back in 1975. Graham Ward, who plays guitar, sings, and writes all the songs would have been a perfect replacement for Peter Gabriel, in my opinion.... |
@larsman strange days, that's one completely unknown to me. Found it on YouTube. Pretty cool and very Genesis-like. Can't agree with the Gabriel substitute. Thanks for the tip. This record deserves a spin on my system. |
@richmon thanks for the recommendations. Camel and Strawbs never did it for me but thumbs up for Porcupine Tree and Caravan. Have a few PT albums and lots of Caravans. 5 strars for "For girls who grow... Like "In the land of Grey and pink" a lot. |
