And this book is much less cranky and opinionated than Stump's history of Roxy Music. You could do a lot worse, but most of the information presented here has since been superseded by a couple of the newer prog histories.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.I can't say why because I don't understand English well ...By CustomerI can't say why because I don't understand English well. But it is worth for the bands that I know now!!!!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.He was There, and he is BritishBy billrosenblattI've read most of the other books on Progressive Rock, and I've been a fan of the genre since I got turned on to Yes and Genesis in the mid-70s.What I like especially about this book is it gets far deeper into the Britishness of progressive rock, not just in terms of historical and contemporary cultural influences but also by virtue of an insider's knowledge of the music biz (record labels, concert promoters, etc.) and its relationship with the actual musical product. Stump is also an unabashedly British writer in style, and to a Yank like me this is always a source of pleasure.However, just as a prog musician can't help writing passages in 15/4 time or soloing interminably from time to time, Stump can't help trotting out academia-jargon and Big Words that no one but English professors have ever heard of, let alone used in a sentence in anything other than an academic journal article. At the same time, Stump is aware of the relevance (or lack thereof) of terms like post-modernism and thinkers like Foucault and Derrida to actual music listeners.This book gets bashed by prog fans/apologists (I claim to be the first, though not the second) for being critical of things like the lyrics of Greg Lake and Jon Anderson. I was thrilled to see someone knowledgeable finally agree with me that Land Lies Down on Broadway and The Wall are vastly overrated, and to peel back the LSD layer to reveal how mediocre the actual *music* of Hawkwind and Eloy was. Other criticisms are down to pure taste, and there's no way or reason to argue that. (But just to get my licks in: Hatfield's Rotters Club gets nowhere near the credit it deserves for ushering in the late-Canterbury sound; Focus' Hamburger Concerto is not a masterpiece but rather an indulgent Thijs van Leer quasi-solo effort that pales in comparison to Moving Waves; I wouldn't even call Jethro Tull a progressive band.)The historic backdrop details in this book themselves are worth the price of admission, as are the tantalizing references to the many bands that sounded promising but didn't make it. Getting to understand what surrounding political-economic conditions and the machinations of the press, promoters, and record labels did to promote (or dump) Progressive is invaluable. So are the many, many results of interviews with highly influential musicians such as Bill Bruford and Pete Sinfield. In comparison, both Edward Macan's and Bill Martin's books read like academic analyses of Elizabethan drama: not only far removed from the actual scene but also feeling called upon to offer meta-meta-meta-analysis in order to distinguish themselves from previous writings.My final carp with this otherwise very fine book is that its UK-centrism gets in the way sometimes. It's true that the British invented this genre, but the influences that went into it can neither be genericized nor limited to "American rock 'n' roll" and the European classics. It is true, for example, that British prog musicians weren't influenced by the Velvet Underground.But Frank Zappa in particular was a much larger influence than Stump realizes. In fact, it could be argued that Zappa's influence was felt much more strongly in Europe than in the US during the peak Progressive era. When I asked Fred Frith, in the late 1980s, if Zappa's Uncle Meat was an influence on Henry Cow, he said "Absolutely! We were all hearing that at the time." Adrian Belew came from Zappa's band into Crimson Mark IV, and part of what he brought to Crimson was guitar tricks and vocal chops he learned with Zappa. Phil Miller's guitar soloing style in Hatfield and National Health owes a huge debt to Zappa's. Eddie Jobson played in an earlier incarnation of Zappa's band and took that experience straight into UK: "Presto Vivace" from the first UK album was an instrumental that Jobson had written on tour with Zappa in his emulation: it sounds like an Anglicized take on many Zappa instrumentals. Bill Bruford's replacements in UK and Genesis' touring band were both Zappa alums (Terry Bozzio and Chester Thompson respectively). I could go on and on, but you get the picture.I think part of the problem with Zappa is the series of incomprehensible decisions made by his wife Gail after his untimely death in 1994 that have made it unnecessarily difficult to get hold of Zappa's music; for example, it is not available (legally) online. Zappa isn't getting the exposure his music deserves, so it may be harder to see how profoundly he did influence progressive rock -- or that many of his late 60s through mid 70s albums could easily have been considered prog.Apart from that, I enjoyed this book much more than those of Macan and Martin. Highly recommended for existing fans of the genre; probably rough going for newbies.See all 16 customer reviews...
