I need a show with more progressive rock. So this week's theme is Prog Exemplars - songs that illustrate attributes of a good prog track. Think long tunes split into movements, classical piano or guitar intros, weird time signatures, long solos, Hammond organ or Moog, fantastical lyrics etc. Let me know your tune and why you believe it is an exemplar of good progressive rock. Extra points if the tune is not by a famous prog band or by a non-prog band.
