Work In Progress Live

Peter Jones No idea where these guys got the idea they were playing jazz fusion. This is 70s/80s prog rock down the line. Gorgeous stuff.

Went well with the OSC I had on just before, too.

Nick Bradey Superb live set - check out the studio sets also . Many great Italian prog bands - I also recommend anything by Finisterre .
Favorite track: Ragno.

Carsten Pieper Another great Italian band from the wide realm of proggy rock (with a jazz/fusion tendency).
Astonishing live recording from NEARFest, 2000. Favorite track: Escher.

Hardo A great Jazzprog performance!

about

This live album documents D.F.A.'s stellar performance at NEARfest 2000. It most certainly marked the beginning of a new, exciting phase in the band's career, and was their first major exposure outside the confines of their native Europe. (D.F.A. is from Italy, a country with a rich progressive music history.) It was early afternoon on June 17th, 2000, when D.F.A. took the stage for their first-ever live performance in the USA. Many among the large audience of progressive music enthusiasts at NEARfest were obviously unfamiliar with the Italian band and their music, but as the show progressed it became evident that history was in the making. Each successive song was greeted with a bigger roar of applause, and D.F.A. were becoming instant stars on the international progressive music scene. It was a spellbinding performance at a breakthrough event in the history of the group.Recorded with crystal clarity, this is an exceptional recording of a very special live performance. Full of excitement, surprises and superb playing, Work In Progress Live is one album that's not to be missed by any fan of progressive music.

MOONJUNE SAMPLER

supported by 294 fans who also own “Work In Progress Live”

Fantastic opportunity to get an impression what MoonJune Records is about (fusion, prog rock, avantgarde from all around the world, with a special spotlight on Indonesia ...). Many great artists to be discovered (mostly) and rediscovered (sometimes)! Also, watch out for their special offers due to their 15th birthday (this is why, in short time, many other MoonJune albums will appear here ;-} ). Carsten Pieper
