John Simms

A retired Methodist Minister, and life-long lover of progressive music in all its forms. Presenter of three shows on Progzilla Radio: 'Do You Remember...?', which focusses on the formative years of the 60s, 70s and 80s; 'Epic Sundays', exploring the long-form song; and 'Flight of the Sky Pilot', where anything goes, but there's usually quite a bit of jazz, fusion, classic rock and prog.
