Closer to the Edge
JD’s “Prog Variety Show” plays the finest classic and modern Progressive Rock and related music from around the world! Progressive Rock (now called Prog to encompass the many sub-genres) evolved in the late 60’s/early 70’s from Psychedelic music to elevate rock to new levels of artistry. Prog bands, then and now, push rock’s technical and composition boundaries by going beyond the standard rock or popular verse-chorus song based structures. Also, the arrangements often incorporate elements drawn from classical, jazz and world music. Long, multi-dimensional pieces are more common while songs with lyrics are sometimes conceptual, abstract, or based in fantasy. Musically, unusual time signatures are frequent as is orchestration and many ‘movements’ within one song. Prog bands sometimes use “concept albums” to tell an epic story or tackle a grand overarching theme. Progressive Rock sub-genres include Jazz Rock/Fusion, Krautrock, Neo-Prog, Prog Folk, Progressive Electronic, Progressive Metal, Psychedelic/Space Rock and many others, plus Proto-Prog.

Common Ground
Here’s the facts: we are on a beautiful ball of dirt that is hurtling thru space while some force totally beyond our ability to comprehend creates us, keeps us breathing, and will remove us. If we live to be 100 we have 36,500 days to enjoy it. Common Ground explores this reality and how to make the most of it with heart to heart excerpts from Prem Rawat’s addresses to audiences all over the world, (Prem has been internationally recognized many, many times as an authority on peace and contentment, and his message is quite uplifting), interviews, discussions and music – all coming from a desire to simply enjoy being alive. We are all in this together!!
