running to destruction. 
Both are severly handicapped by their respective formulas IMHO. To
balance this, I have 
spent time listening to prog during this last week via all the internet
radio providers and I 
am appalled at the majority of what I hear. This genre is currently
guilty of crimes against 
mankind and may well have always been so. Blues and reggae may be
musically 
claustrophobic for my tastes but the drivel pouring from these
progstations is like some 
hideous musical nightmare. Give me a stumbling player who means it
rather than some 
technical genius bereft of one good musical idea. There, I've said it.
Now go and listen to 
Chris Thile's 'Not All Who Wander Are Lost'. Musical prowess and real
music. Martin 
'Down With ProgBollox' tee shirts available. One size fits nobody. Send
