Author Jerry Ewing (Editor of 'Prog' magazine and the founder of 'Classic Rock' magazine) tells the in-depth history of Prog, from the origins of the genre to the highs of the 60's and 70's, to its contemporary resurgence with artists such as Steven Wilson and Opeth, not to mention the prog influences on art-rock bands such as Muse and Radiohead. Highlights include the story of the 'big six' of Progressive Rock - Pink Floyd, Yes, King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Emerson Lake and Palmer and Genesis.
