What are you listening to?

[Syt]

Would you consider Boston a prog band or not?

Proto-grunge, maybe, since Nirvana famously modelled their Smells Like Teen Spirit riffs after Boston's More Than A Feeling?

Your crazy Kaiser helmet's strapped on too tight.  Boston is shitty 70's/80's beer rock, Rush for Yankees.

I wasn't entirely serious, as indicated by the  smiley.

[Eddie Teach]

Not prog.

[Drakken]

This one goes out to the Z-man.

NIN- 20 Ghosts

[Savonarola]

In honor of the Zimmerman trial I listened to "The Chronic."  Some of the lyrics are amusingly dated like:

Got a VCR in the back of my car
That I ganked from the Slauson swap meet

or

Not form Kriss Kross but they call me Mack Daddy

Still it's a great album, with fine lyrics.  I think Eliot Spitzer should end all his speeches with Snoop's line:

And now you hookers and hos know how I feel.

[Josephus]

Boston...not prog. I'd classify them under 70s Arena Rock bands...along with Journey, Foreigner, Styx

[Ideologue]

Boston as prog?  The mind boggles.  Agree with Jo 100%.  Does not make them not great, much like Journey or Styx (Foreigner is okay).

Whale - Hobo Humpin' Slobo Babe

[The Brain]

Whale - Pay For Me

[Ed Anger]

Monster Magnet - Sin's a good man's brother
