My introduction to Progressive Rock was via the Prog Rock single “Roundabout” by the iconic Prog band Yes, I was just around 8 or 9 yrs old at the time and fell in love with the guitar intro and that prominent trebby jazzy funky swirling bass line. After 40 and something odd years (closing in on 50 very very quickly), I am still not tired of hearing this song (preferably the “long” version, and NOT the single version at this time however :D ). Since then I’d been picking up Progressive Rock albums whenever or however I could. This usually meant flea markets, garage sales, and secondhand stores. As Prog was not my only interest as far as music, I accrued many other styles of music as well, but Prog makes up the majority of my music collection.
Although a generally quiet person, as I had a lifelong love for music as well as radio, I coerced myself into becoming a radio DJ and volunteered as such at a community radio station in Albuquerque, NM during the 80s. I did this for four or five years until I moved out of state.
This passion to play music for the masses never waned, however, and I started my podcast, Progkast, in February of 2016. Progkast continued until the last episode in August 2018. Progkast was an all independent podcast, playing music from unsigned, generally unknown Progressive Rock artists, or even artists on small record labels. Due to the nature of Progkast and the time involved for “discovery” of new artists, as well as waiting to hear back from artists for permission and downloads, I retired Progkast, at least for the time being, due to time constraints.
