Progressive Palaver

Sometimes you just have to share. After finding himself on a long drive with a phone full of Marillion albums, Joe has some extra thoughts to share on Sounds That Can't Be Made and Marbles. You can tweet us @progpala. Our email is progpala@gmail.com. We are on instagram, youtube and facebook as Progressive Palaver.

A true bonus episode. The Palaver managed to convene in person to have some dinner before one of the Yes featuring ARW shows in October. This bonus episode is a recording of the conversation during that dinner. Just something fun but definitely not our usual format. Tweet us @progpala, email us at progpala@gmail.com.

The Palaver continues as Joe, Paul and Ken consider Marillion's Somewhere Else, Happiness is the Road, and Sounds That Can't Be Made. The group searches for common themes in this later portion of the Marillion catalog between where the band has been and where they are heading.

In this episode the group discusses the masterpiece of progressive rock that is Marillion's Marbles.

The third installment in the Special Concert Series of Progressive Palaver finds Paul and Joe discussing the Yes Featuring ARW show in Philadelphia from October 1. Much was talked about including the Kimmel Center for Performing Arts, Rick Wakeman's wardrobe, the simple majesty of Awaken and Rick's stand-up talents.

Joe and Paul discuss their second Yes featuring ARW show in as many nights. Topics include parking in Trenton, the ARW Fun Competition, Lee Pomeroy (with greatest apologies), Jon's joy in performing and Jon's chimes.

Tremendous apologies to Lee Pomeroy for this episode. In my defense I had had a VERY rough travel day to get to this show! :) This first installment in the Special Concert Series sees Paul and Joe begin their journey to experience Yes featuring ARW in three cities on three consecutive nights. The group covers the show in Reading PA on Sept 29 complete with clips from the show.
