The Prog Rock Hour / Prog Rock Nation

The Prog Rock Hour / Prog Rock Nation Progressive Rock Show on KTAL-LP, 101.5 FM, Las Cruces, NM lccommunityradio.org I did this for four or five years until I moved out of state. Peace! Julie, PRN

Prog Rock Nation is a Progressive Rock radio show that airs on KTAL-LP 101.5 FM, Las Cruces, NM USA on Saturday nights 8-10pm MST/MDT and again on Sunday mornings 3-5am MST/MDT. KTAL-LP also has a live stream https://tunein.com/radio/KTAL-LP-s299277/ or lccommunityradio.org/stream.html so you can listen no matter where in the World you are. My introduction to Progressive Rock was via the Prog Roc

k single “Roundabout” by the iconic Prog band Yes, I was just around 8 or 9 yrs old at the time and fell in love with the guitar intro and that prominent trebby jazzy funky swirling bass line. Although a generally quiet person, as I had a lifelong love for music as well as radio, I coerced myself into becoming a radio DJ and volunteered as such at a community radio station in Albuquerque, NM during the 80s. This passion to play music for the masses never waned, however, and I started my podcast, Progkast, in February of 2016. Progkast is an all independent artist podcast and is available through most podcast outlets and is hosted at www.soundcloud.com/progkast. My goal at Prog Rock Nation is to indulge those that are already into Prog, as well as to pull in new listeners who may not be all so familiar with the genre. If you like Pink Floyd, Rush, or TransSiberian Orchestra, you will like some of what I play. As all of the above are Progressive Rock artists. You may have liked it all along and never knew it! Jazz Fusion, Psychedelic, Experimental, Symphonic, Experimental... all these are subgenres or near genres (influencing Prog) of Progressive Rock.
