Description

This article is from the Progressive Music FAQ, by Phil Kime(Philip@kime.org.uk) with numerous contributions by others.

72 What is "The Progressive Music Survey" that people talk about? What is its relation to the Gibraltar Encyclopedia of Progressive Rock? How do I get a copy?

They are the same thing. It is a huge listing of progressive bands,
with their discographies and reviews and overviews of their releases.
It was originally compiled by Dave Markfield in late 1991, but a
more recent version was put together by Mike Taylor in early 1993.
It is an A to Z dictionary of progressive music, and though it
is still incomplete, it contains info on over 1100 artists. Phil
Kime originally put it on-line and it has now moved to a new home,
maintained by Fred Trafton at:

NOTE: If you are looking for an idea of what particular bands sound
like, or are new to prog and want to get an idea of what is out
there, I strongly suggest perusing the GEPR.
