Progressive! The Sound of Rock's Mature Side in Ahmet's House

As the show started to come together for tonight, we heard of the passing of bassist John Wetton...another great loss to the music of Atlantic Records. As so much of what John created affected the progressive rock world, the song list took its own way. Tonight, some of the great work of John, and a sampling of the progressive catalog of Atlantic! It's all in Ahmet's House.

John with Asia in 1983...a sliver of his great musical catalog

Song List:

Don't Cry---Asia
Afterglow---Steve Hackett (live)
Starless---King Crimson
Firth of Fifth---Genesis/Steve Hackett/John Wetton
Yours is No Disgrace---Yes
La Villa Strangiato---Rush (live)
