The Prog Mill 471 - 8 June 2025

Edition 471 of THE PROG MILL for Progzilla Radio (691 in total), first broadcast 8 June 2025, is now also available to listen to anytime you like or even download it. This week I'm joined by Leo Trimming of The Progressive Aspect who reads a review of the superb Oddleaf album 'Where Ideal and Denial Collide' which was written by the late Tony Colvill. There is also a short tribute to Tony as part of that. Our fun quickfire quiz invites you to identify five of the bands who played last weekend's Soundle festival by hearing just a few seconds of each. All this of course makes up two hours of superb melodic and symphonic progressive rock!

You can hear The Prog Mill on Progzilla Radio at these times every week - www.progzilla.com/listen - via the tune in and other internet radio apps and platforms – and on your smart speaker.

Sundays 10pm – Midnight UK (2100UTC, 2300 Europe, 2pm Pacific US, 5pm East Coast US) main broadcast

Saturday Replay - 6pm – 8pm UK (1700 UTC/1900 Europe, 10am Pacific/1pm Eastern).

Shaun Geraghty

Shaun has been a radio presenter since 1982, starting in pirate radio broadcasting across Europe from an aerial strung between trees in the forests of Staffordshire. Soon after, he became a regular presenter and member of the management team at Hospital Radio Stafford, staying there for 32 years and receiving long service awards. Shaun also worked extensively in local community radio in Staffordshire on several stations including Stafford FM, Stone FM, Chase FM and Smart Radio. When Stafford Radio, an online community radio station started broadcasting from a 220 year old windmill in 2011, Shaun began presenting 'The Prog Mill' (the name inspired by the station's unique base). Stafford Radio became Windmill Radio before closing in 2016, when 'The Prog Mill' became part of Progzilla Radio. The Prog Mill leans towards the melodic and symphonic side of progressive rock, and includes regular album reviews from our friends at The Progressive Aspect, CD Giveaways, and a regular fun quickfire quiz.
