Progressive talk


I'm into the german krautrock and some people call it german progressive rock. Is there any difference or these are just two common things.
Any input from progressive and krautrock addicts is appreciated.

...hmmm... that reminds me the discussion "Rap in high-end speakers".

Nice recipie, Will. Here is mine:

"Rock" sauerkraut best with straight vodka and a pickle and listen to Jonny Cash or Creedence.

Yes and Pink Floyd is a folk music and we all know about it. It's been popularized pretty fast and everyone knows them.

I realy want to find an A-Gon member that knows Can, Faust, Cluster for a temporary record exchange and/or burning onto CDs or cassettes.
Yes, I'm there artprint:
Can, Faust, Amon Dull, Cluster...
Send me a list if you want to sell some.
Are you from NY? That's basically the place where the progressive rock comes first into US before it gets to Colorado for example.
Labeling music has only virtual meaning but in reality something you can call music and something you can't.
Yep, the same thing I would say "Nothing for sale" or trade. These early CAN, Amon Duul records will die with me. I can also say that Gentle Giant and VanDerGraaf Generator are also in my "gourmet kitchen".
I do strongly believe that these bands didn't and currently don't give a $hit about being in synch with US record companies in the favor of producing their own designed work.
Too late to my knowledge I've found out that Michael Karoli, the lead guitarist from CAN had died 11/17/2001 at the age of 53. I wish him Piece and Eternity.
To all prog-krautrock addicts there is an announcement:
David Sylvian is comming to US. He will give his performances in different states arround May.
Malcolm Mooney and Damo Suzuki will be performing at Knittingfactory tomorrow -- no $hit. Getting the ticket is a whole different issue.
Anyone heard Damo Suzuki's P.R.O.M.I.S.E. mega collection?
Share the experience. Is it all cool there?
