The Sound Chaser Progressive Rock Podcast is on the air. This time I present to you my annual Birthday Gift to Myself show, when I play for you some of my favorite pieces of progressive rock and more. These are not just classics. You can get those anywhere. No, I have gone through the vaults to bring to light some hidden gems, some surprising finds that give me great listening pleasure, and I hope will do the same for you. Playlist1.
