Hello there and welcome to this Spring Special edition of Is This Prog?
In this episode I’m changing things up a little, rather than listen to an album to decide if it’s Prog or not I’m going to give you an overview of an artist I think you’ll like. Specifically, singer-songwriter Nick Drake.
Nick had a lot of crossovers with prog bands, often supporting Genesis and working with members of Fairport Convention among others. But he didn’t achieve recognition in his lifetime. Find out why that might be, as well as my thoughts on his albums, in this extended special episode.
I’ll be back with more episodes in the summer, so keep those suggestions coming in to revelationstationpodcast@gmail.com as well as letting me know what you think of this episode and the series so far.
All original music is copyright the respective artists, in this case Nick Drake and Dream Academy. If you like it please consider streaming or purchasing it.
Title music is Theme One by Van Der Graf Generator.

There aren’t many bands who have had the lasting impact on music that The Beatles had. Most groups hit big for a few years then fade away into nothingness or a shadow of their former selves. Perhaps the only other band who didn’t succumb to this is Queen. But they had a slow start by comparison.
Queen 2 was a pivotal album for the band. They found themselves at a musical crossroads, with one path taking them into pure prog territory and the other to being one of the biggest rock bands in the world. I think you know which path they took, but this album could have been the start of something different…
Join me, Mister Monday, for this second episode as I delve into the background to the album and ask that age old question - Is This Prog?
