Acoustic Progressive Rock

Foxtrot, I can't seem to find your suggestion.

From what I have read and heard, there is very little acoustic stuff. Lots of it is more jazz than anything else. I have not heard the Strawbs, but I will give it a check. I would love something by King Crimson, Dream Theater, maybe acoustic Pink Floyd/Roger Waters, etc. I wonder why this hasn't been tapped.

I recently picked up a copy of Hero & Heroine by the Strawbs. It isn't acoustic, but the reviews on Amazon had it picked as their best effort. I also picked up Heresy by Univers Zero. I had to order it off Amazon because I couldn't find it locally.

The Univers Zero stuff is really strange. I have listened to it twice, but I am compelled to hear it again. Very interesting.

On the other side, I have also listened to the Strawbs twice; however, I am not moved by them as much.

The Rock In Opposition, RIO, are very intriguing. I need to hear some more.

I found this website. Lots of good prog info.

I listened to Heresy twice last night. It is a very exhausting piece of music, to say the least. There is one aspect of the music that I do not like, the vocals. They tend to lean towards the death metal style which I find to be very unmusical. I remember several years ago listening to a death metal/progressive/symphonic band called Therion. I really enjoyed the music, but the vocals got so much in the way for me that I finally couldn't take them any longer.
