The show this time is devoted mostly to that ill-defined category “related music.” In particular, I am taking a long, nostalgic retrospection of the music I was listening to or interested in before I discovered progressive rock or while I was discovering progressive rock. These are songs playing on the radio, performed on TV, and otherwise in the general atmosphere of life in Southern California around a half century ago. The music comes from 1966 to 1978, and prog listeners consider many of these songs to closely tied to progressive rock. I also have an In Memoriam feature for two musicians recently departed. Let’s take a trip back on Sound Chaser.

The Sound Chaser Progressive Rock Podcast is on the air. The show this time is all about the many languages of Prog. Most progressive rock is sung in English, for reasons you probably already know well. However, a fair amount is sung in other languages. Because of that, quite a bit of progressive music does not get the attention it perhaps deserves. So, I am rectifying this just a little by featuring songs in a variety of languages. It’s an international tour on Sound Chaser. I have In Memoriam features for musicians recently gone: Mark Volman, Rick Davies, and Nicky Ryan. The show features music from Magma, Yuka & Chronoship, Kraan, Ange, Tusmørke, Yesterdays, and many others. It's all here on Sound Chaser.

The Sound Chaser Progressive Rock Podcast is on the air. This episode is show number 300, which seems something of a landmark. Therefore, I have decided to dedicate the show to a landmark, that is the city where it all gets put together – Los Angeles. I have over 3 hours of music dedicated to portraying Los Angeles and environs, and if something doesn’t quite belong because I have misinterpreted it in some way, I am force fitting it anyway. So join Sound Chaser on a tour of L.A.
