The first of the three week ‘proggy rock’ series on Gulls Window Circus, where we hear (mostly) 70s rock bands exercising their right to go prog on certain tracks. The Netherlands bring George Baker Selection and Focus, Australia brings Cybotron, Belfast brings Fruupp, Lisbon brings Gala Drop, Paris brings Gong, Germany brings Faust, Cardiff brings Budgie, plus we have lots of English and US bands as well.

An ‘outside of rock’ (electronic) Gulls Window Circus show that seeks to penetrate your mind as you absorb subtle shifts in these (sometimes) long tracks. I find myself listening tracks like Theo Parrish or Brian Eno, Holger Czukay, J. Peter Schwalm thinking it is just repetition, than realizing I am in a different place than I started and am bopping to the track. Many of the tracks are not so subtle or profound – they are just solid tracks that work together to propel you to a semi-relaxed mode. I know this sounds like a bunch of contradictions, but give me your trust and sail beside me for these 2 hours.
