Hi Dave. Tried to get into DT when "Black Clouds & Silver Linings" came out cause I enjoyed their covers of Queen, Zebra, KC, Rainbow and The Dixie Dregs (before that their music meant nothing to me). Went to a gig and yes, they were really good, machine-like performers. Then Portnoy left and lost interest. But 15 yrs. had passed and it sounds like the same formula. Maybe I'll give the album a try. Cheers.

I was 13 when I first heard this and loved his voice ❤

If this had been branded as “Yes”, it would be considered among the top 10 of its entire output. Absolutely Masterful.

Best Duo voices in history, Lennon & Mc Cartney, Andy & Robin Gibb, Rick Davies & Roger Hodson. B-I-A is a Masterpiece. Strating With this song and ending with Child of Vision

Give the man a bass guitar and you've got Chuck Panozzo. Love this song, its my favorite Tommy Shaw Styx led song. On one of their many Greatest Hits albums this song is almost two minutes longer. They really extend the ending, the way Tommy really wanted it. A&M cut it. If you have not heard Tommy's last solo album Seven Deadly Zens its worth a good listen. It's fantastic as are Styx last two albums The Mission & Crash Of The Crown.

Can’t get higher than Jon Anderson!

Excellent video as usual. Renaissance never got the success they deserved. Annie Haslam has such a beautiful voice. All the best 😁

Hi Dave, Many thanks for your wonderful review of Disparity - so glad that you enjoyed (and appreciated) what I was trying to achieve on this album. Thanks for your support :) Andy

Details missing - (1) Gabriel told an introductory story at the Ferme gig indicating that the instrumental climax represents the song's protagonist drunk-driving, and being pursued by the police, then crashing his car and dying in the wreckage. (2) There are three studio recordings, and he doesn't say "you can fuck tomorrow!" on any of them. Then again there's no improvised flute solo in this shortened take. (3) It entered the live repertoire during the long gap between FGTR and the release of Trespass (so definitely a Phillips co-write), and stayed in the repertoire through 1971. (And I suspect that - like Going Out To Get You - it made one or two appearances the year after that, but alas I'm separated from my copy of Play Me My Song, so...can anyone confirm?)

Hello Dave, 👍👏👌 chanson sur la Nostalgie des jeunes années et des 1ères amours qui ne sont que des " lumières qui s’estompent " " Fading Lights " Cette chanson est également 1 sorte d’Adieu de Phil Collins à Genesis qu’il quittera après le " we can’t dance Tour " Phil your departure , our sadness....🤷‍♀️😥😍❣🇧🇪

Great video and you're style is excellent. I love The Final Cut, for me, it's a masterpiece. Anyway, I enjoyed your video and I subscribed.

I came across Nektar on the OGWT when a part of "Remember the Future" was featured. They were due to support Zappa at Wembley in September 1973 and perhaps that was why. I was at that gig and Nektar were great. I became a fan and saw them several times after. They were a force of nature as a live band and had a truly psychedelic light show. As you've also just pointed out, they have never really stopped making excellent albums.

It's a tremendous and innovative album and a good direction for Keith Relf after the Yardbirds.

This album blew me away. I had never heard of them before I clicked on the link in my you tube recommended videos.

Excellent video as usual Dave. My sister gave me the album on it's release as a 20th birthday present. It's been a huge favourite ever since. All the best.😁

Check out their song Never walk alone. Or their full cirkle live performance. Orises eyes or their version of Bowie's space boy is great. Their music is not as komplex as D.T but it's very efficient and the vocals are better i.m.o.🤘

Sound's like Pagans Mind.

I'm only a 'Greatest Hits' fan of DT but this song is really great. Wow. I'm impressed.

A great song and a real surprise at the start of the album, So different from what we expected from Yes in style up to that time.

It was never rod stewart and the faces. It was just the faces and should be treated as such.

Yes is one of my all time favorite bands. It took me awhile to appreciate this song but it's a banger, especially live! The bass is amazing as always.

Hey Dave! GFTO is a great album, from the title track to Awaken. With Jon and Rick coming back to the band, more success returned to the band. The tour in support of the album found YES filling every venue. GFTO is one of my favorite YES albums. Not a bad song on the album. Thanks Dave for another fine YES video! You ROCK!!!👍🎵🎼🎶😎

very nice review

17:36 Guitars on this one by Daryl Stuermer. One of his very best soloing here IMO.

Hello Dave, 👍👏👌 pour cette chronique si intéressante et si passionnante... un coup de cœur pour Ripples au développement instrumental à tirer des larmes aux plus insensibles..un titre typiquement Prog avec beaucoup de sensibilité et d’émotion ...🎼🎸🎹🥁🎤🔥😍🎵🎶

Great list, all part of my collection. I agree w others that Gentle Giant is a prog legend deserving of recognition; but then so are many others. You definitely captured some of the best albums recorded during the golden age of prog! Nicely done…

Another person thinking that prog died in the 70's. I have all of your 10 picks but I also have 500+ prog albums that are just as good from the last 50 years from all over the world.

As the premier Prog band and album, King Crimson's In the Court of the Crimson King should be #1, not #10. When they get to Close To The Edge, they mention Rick Wakeman, but they show Tom Brislin, in the excellent Symphonic Yes film. Wakeman had prior commitments. As far as the rest goes, let me guess... You love Genesis and Rush, right?

Started off well with a nice mix, but ended awfully. Three Genesis, two Rush and vanderGraef whatever but no ELP is a joke. Could pick from several, but probably Brain Salad Surgery. Greater musicianship than any of these bands, with possible exception of Yes, and as much musicality as any of them. Rush were just a wannabe Yes with godawful lyrics and an excruciating singer, who some people decided they had to like, god knows why. Obviously Dark Side is the prototypical Floyd Album, not Wish you were here, but have them both before any Rush rubbish. Tangerine Dream, Soft Machine, Zappa among others worthy of consideration, though you’d probably get your 10 best albums from the groups mentioned here minus Rush. Both Keith Emerson’s The Nice and Floyd were doing prog rock before Court of the Crimson King came out.

Good list. At that time ther was so much good music, it was abundance. You can't stop at 10 albums. No Gentle Giant, No ELP, No Eloy, no IQ, No Marillion, No Arena.🎸🎼🎹🍻

Same as Pete below except I went on to Duke (and rated it) before being disappointed with Abacab and going backwards . I can't get into Abacab onwards but shed a tear when I hear 'Fading Lights'... sounding like a farewell?

Three Genesis and two Rush albums on a top ten essential prog album list? Please, you can do better than this. This list tells me more about you that it does about progressive rock.

No Gentle Giant? They were top-tier prog in the 70s, and had a tremendous run of albums: Three Friends, Octopus, In a Glass House, The Power and the Glory, Free Hand, and Interview. Also a great live band; their live album Playing the Fool is also a must-hear. (Excellent live clips in YT also.) All members were multi-instrumentalists, with a taste for medieval and renaissance classical influences.

No Tarkus, I question your reason

Thank you for reaction sir! I agree that this is "best" in the surround of all "really great." 😊

decent album? is that the defination of "damning with faint praise.

Fully agree with No.1. Personally would also have put Topographical Oceans on there ...:) Cheers Dave.

It's my all time favorite from Styx since the early 80s when I first heard it in 7th grade. Brilliant.

Hey Dave! Very interesting video. As soon as you put your favorite band on the list i knew you would put my favorite on it. Union was a complete mess of an album. I do like a few of the tracks. Lift Me Up and Shock To The System got some decent airplay and were good in concert. I must say that for a weak album, the tour was INCREDIBLE!!! Thanks Dave for your awesome efforts!👍👍👍😎

It’s a bit odd watching you read your review

Leftoverture by Kansas and Images and Words to replace Farewell to Kings and Selling England by the Pound. This would give the list a better spread of prog bands.
