1968
1968's music was not quite fully structured as Progressive Rock. The year was still mainly filled with Psychedelic Rock releases, Blues Rock and Acid Rock and of course, weird experimentations.
But we believe that is important to understand what came first and what were the influences that ended up being Prog Rock music.
Important albums released in the year:
- The Beatles - The Beatles (White Album)
- The Moody Blues - In Search Of The Lost Chord
- Pink Floyd - A Saucerful Of Secrets
- Procol Harum - Shine On Brightly
- The Nice - Ars Longa Vita Brevis
