This week, another diverse serving of prog rock and anything else that fits from Australia and overseas, including Adelaide band Unitopia from their ambitous 2 CD set The Garden. With much of Adelaide at the Glendi festival today and tomorrow, there's a musical detour to Greece including the band Aphrodite's Child, which in the early 1970's featured both the keyboard wizard Vangelis and the singer Demis 'Forever and ever' Roussos. It's happy birthday this weekend to guitarist Steve Rothery (Marillion) and Jimi Hendrix, and there's also a healthy serving from the musical legacy of the late Mick Fettes (Madder Lake).

Playlist - 24 January 2015

It's Australia Day this Monday - so it's likely there'll be great Australian music all over your radio this weekend, from one end of the dial to the other, and that's as it should be.
But there's probably only one place you'll hear classic progressive rock from legendary bands such as Fraternity, Healing Force, Spectrum, Tamam Shud and Tully, plus great music from more recent releases by Anubis, Ben Craven, Caligula's Horse, The Lammas Tide and Adelaide's own Unitopia: that's Seasons Of Change - all-Australian, this Saturday night, from 8pm until 11pm.
