I saw King Crimson in 1969 in Hyde Park and the Rolling stones were their support act.
I'm a big fan of prog rock and Genesis is a firm favourite.
In fact I've been watching a lot of stuff from that era and I'm practicing the track 'Entangled' from a trick of the tail.
I agree with you on how innovative and dynamic the music scene was back in those days without being nostalgic.
It was objectively constructed completely differently to the pap we have today.
I though King Crimson supported the Stones. You must have been about 5 to have been there!
I like challenging music, but it can be complex and enjoyable. Prog is about pushing the boundaries and doesn't all have to be about Tolkein type legends. There are newer bands who still carry the torch. It's out there if you seek it. I used to listen to shows from The Dividing Line, but I think they shut down. I discovered a lot of bands there such as Big Big Train and Frost*.

I also saw Pink Floyd in a tiny club in wardour street. Although the Floyd are known for Roger Walter's lyrics. The band as a whole was focused on the musical journey of the piece.
It's possible to listen to the music alone and still enjoy the musical experience.
I must say I'm out of touch with the current prog rock scene. I'll check out your suggestions. 🎶🎸👍
