Playlist - 7 December 2013

This week, for the first program for Summer, another diverse serving of prog rock and anything else that fits from Australia and overseas. Hours 1 and 3 are devoted to music from 1983 - 30 years ago, when PBA-FM started broadcasting. As 1983 was a transition year for the world of progressive rock, with many established bands either disbanded or sitting the year out, it's an eclectic selection but still features good music from established bands (Yes, Genesis) and new talent (Marillion). There's also a selection of songs written by Vanda and Young (whose compositions could fill several programs), and some epic progressive metal from Perth band Lacrymae.
