The Afterword Podcast


This is GLK London calling the world...an audio companion to theafterword.co.uk

The sound of the waifs and strays of the Word magazine blog (RIP), musing along the byways of popular culture. We blather, you listen — that’s the deal.

Vulpes Vulpes, Uncle Wheaty and JohnA_Online discuss the misunderstood world of Prog under the stern eye of Chairman Twang. Questions answered include "what is Prog?", "is virtuosity important?" and "were the Beatles Prog?".

Tempers flare like loon pants in the wind. Chords are arpeggiated. Words such as "astounding" and "awesome" are used.

Light a few candles, fire up the patchouli oil burner and come with us back to the days when kings were crimson and England was sold for a pound.
