Playlist - 14 December 2013

This week, another diverse serving of prog rock and anything else that fits from Australia and overseas, spending some time with some of the more interesting music releases from the last 12 months. This includes some excellent music from Adelaide bands Quiet Child, Projected Twin and Unitopia, and the enigmatic concept album/drama from Brisbane's Hibernal. Plus selections from the rich musical legacy of Bill Putt (Spectrum), Chris Bailey (Headband, The Angels, Gangajang), Kevin Ayers, Peter Banks (Yes) and Chrissie Amphlett. For once, 3 hours doesn't seem long enough to fit it all in!
