Prog – Themes For Great Cities Review

Posted on March 13, 2022October 3, 2023 By Priptona 2 Comments on Prog – Themes For Great Cities Review

Better late than never from the guys from Prog magazine. Another great review, full of nothing but praise for the book. I’ve honestly not seen a negative thing about it – only a few from some fans bemoaning where the story ends. But I am in complete agreement with Graeme as to where the book ends. But you know? It doesn’t end in 1985. He brings it up to the present day, but the story from 1985 onwards is just…a different story.

Anyway, more positives for, without a shadow of a doubt for me, book of the year – unless Jim finally brings his one out this year! Lol… ooh…are those pigs I see in the sky? I

’ll have a university degree before that happens! ????

    I don’t know how you do it, but keep up the good work! How you manage to find so much fresh content (to me at least) on band that’s probably considered a “micro niche” is beyond me. I could see if it was their one time “rivals” U2, plenty of stuff online. But, hey, keep up the good work!

      Oh, thank you! I miss a lot of stuff, actually. I am not keeping up with the blog as I would like right now as my study is taking precedence of what I?m doing.
      I guess just being involved in the fanbase helps me to be aware of stuff.
      Thanks for continuing to visit, Christopher, it?s highly appreciated.
