Prog-Watch 1129 - Whatnot from the 1980s

For this week’s Prog-Watch I have put together a different kind of program. A death in my family and the need to travel to the funeral left me with no time to put together a proper show, and I didn’t want to go with another From the Archives episode. As a compromise, I decided to put together a kind of stream-of-consciousness program full of random stuff from the 1980s. After a brief preamble you will not hear me and my usual patter, just lots of cool tunes. Thanks for your understanding and I hope you enjoy Whatnot from the 1980s!

Anthony Rowsick (aka the Progsquatch) has been a fan of Progressive Rock for roughly 35 years. When the last of his four children moved out a few years ago he suddenly found himself with some things he had been lacking for many years – extra room in the house, spare time, and spare money! So he decided to invest in some computer recording software and an interface, moved all of his instruments and equipment into one of the kids’ old bedrooms, and began writing and recording his own music again. His friend Nelson W Pyles – the lyricist and vocalist in his recording project (called Novus) – is an author and podcaster and gave Tony the idea of doing his own podcast. Thus, Prog-Watch was born! When he is not working, listening to Prog Rock, or preparing shows, Tony likes to pick up heavy things and put them down. He also reads avidly and enjoys craft beer.
