Yugo-Prog Appreciation Thread

YES! I was waiting for someone to mention that one!

This is a personal favorite.

 

Trio Dag Sećanja (LP, 1974)



Another beautiful cracker the fans of the 70s "prog-folk".

 

S Vremena Na Vreme Nada (s/t 1975)

 

Smak Šumadijski Blues (B-side of 7-inch single, 1976)

 

A nice live version of Šumadijski Blues, with extended and awesome Hammond organ solo by Smak's original keyboardist Lazar "Laza" Ristovski (RIP), was recorded in NYC in 1976, where the band played as an opening act for Marshall Tucker Band. Very nice video clip which is actually a part of one-hour long tv rockumentary in production of TV Belgrade, made of very nice footages of 1976 Manhattan and footage of Smak on the stage in NYC:



Another great example that although *progressive* blues is pretty rare in Progressive music of the 70s, it could be detected as well.

 

Smak Hirošima (Rock Cirkus LP, 1980; a nice fan-video from 2017)

 

Tako Priče o Leni (U Vreći Za Spavanje LP, 1980)

 

Drugi Način Žuti list (instrumental) (Drugi način LP, 1975)



For the fans of flute driven Progressive rock.

Drugi Način Stari grad (footage from the band's "reunion" concert at Mikser House, Belgrade, 2017)

 

Drugi Način Na mom dlanu ("On My Palm") (Drugi način LP, 1975)

 

Oko Raskorak (Raskorak LP, 1976)

 

Ipe i Laza Poslije svega ("After All") (Stižemo LP, 1978)



A just perfect song for the fans of great keys intro & mindblowing Hammond organ / analog synth/ 'tron (including choir 'tron) solo, and also (or) to the fans of female-fronted Symphonic rock of the 70s, what was slightly rare back in the day.

 

Maja de Rado & Porodična Manufaktura Crnog Hleba Noć ("Night") (female-fronted *progressive* folk-rock) (s/t LP, 1974)
