This week I am paying tribute to the late, great Mike Pinder -- a man who not only shaped the sound of his own band (the Moody Blues) but also changed the course of rock music and helped define the sound of your favorite sub-genre, prog rock.

This week my special guests are Jamie Robertson, author of a book called Music Measures Memories, and the book's publisher, our friend and resident reviewer, Rob Fisher! (Bet you didn't know Rob was also a publisher!) The book deals with the importance of music in Jamie's life, it's ability to help us heal, and it's ability to intertwine with our memories. Jamie, Rob, and I chat about that, and some of the most meaningful songs in Jamie's life. We hope you will join us to hear some of "The Diaries of a Melomaniac" and lots of great prog rock and classic rock songs!

This week's Prog-Watch is a themed special all about knowing, with tons of tasty tunes by Genesis, Robert Plant, Dave Mason, Fairport Convention, Asia, David Gilmour, Trevor Rabin, Yes, Steve Winwood, Marillion, Matthew Sweet, Kansas, Supertramp, Jon Anderson, Michael Penn, and The Allman Brothers!

This week I am Shaking The Family Tree of one of the most influential Prog bands of all-time...Genesis!
