THE SENSATIONAL ALEX HARVEY BAND

As his stint with late 60s psychedelic act Giant Moth and his largely spoken-word documentary/concept LP Alex Harvey Presents: The Loch Ness Monster attest, Alex Harvey's long, eclectic career was studded with prog-friendly episodes. It was in 1972, though, that the singer recruited the group that were his passport to all kinds of versatility. With The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, prog, hard rock, and a slightly sinister strain of mime and Weimar Republic-inspired theatricality were go.

IN MEMORY OF DAVE COUSINS

Strawbs co-founder Dave Cousins died in July following a long illness. The singer, songwriter and guitarist enjoyed an active musical career spanning more than six decades and has been name- checked by many musicians as a key influence and inspiration. We reflect on his rich legacy and reveal plans for a number of posthumous releases, including the long-awaited new Strawbs album.

Dogged Determination

Forty years ago this September, Kate Bush released Hounds Of Love. Her fifth studio record reinstated her position as one of the most innovative and creative artists of all time and yielded the (future) chart-topper Running Up That Hill. But its creation wasn't always smooth. Here's the story behind one of Bush's best-loved albums.

Sounds Of Love

Kate Bush's fifth album combines hit singles with a seven-song conceptual suite, all expressing the unmistakable style of one of progressive music's most uncompromising visionaries. To mark 40 years of inspiration, The Anchoress, Within Temptation's Sharon den Adel, Auri's Johanna Kurkela, The Blackheart Orchestra's Chrissy Mostyn and Exploring Birdsong's Lynsey Ward celebrate the enduring magic and influence of Hounds Of Love.

Kate: Behind The Camera

Renowned Italian photographer Guido Harari snapped Kate Bush during the commercial peak of her career from 1982 to 1993. In an extract from his book The Kate Inside, he offers a fascinating glimpse into what it was like to work with the singer-songwriter and how the Hounds Of Love press images came about.

Now What?

In 1974, Mike Oldfield defied the critics and hit the top of the UK charts with Hergest Ridge, the ambitious follow-up to his unexpectedly successful debut Tubular Bells. To coincide with the release of the 50th-anniversary edition, the musician, his siblings and collaborators recount the story of an album created by an overwhelmed 21-year-old taking refuge near the Welsh borders.

Father Figure

Singer-songwriter and the voice of the Genesis Revisited shows, Nad Sylvan has moved further away from his onstage persona with his latest solo album, Monumentata. He reveals the story behind the intimate record that pays homage to his late father and finds him mixing up influences - from Pink Floyd and Keith Emerson to The Addams Family!

LOOK Around You

Truth can be stranger than fiction, and that's something Hats Off Gentlemen It's Adequate embrace on their latest album, The Uncertainty Principle. Moving away from sci-fi and exploring themes of science and human interaction, Malcolm Galloway and Mark Gatland explain why they took a deep dive into the history books to uncover tales of scientists, spies and nuclear bombs.

Where Are We?

Stockholm instrumentalists Gösta Berlings Saga are back and celebrating 25 years of heady musical adventures with their seventh album, Forever Now. Driven by a thrill-seeking wanderlust to explore new sounds and the desire to remain recognisable, the band tell Prog they're always searching for something new, even if they're not actually sure what that is.

Innovative And Uncategorisable

Born in the titular Kent city in the late 60s, the Canterbury scene spawned some of prog's most creative and quirky acts. From The Wilde Flowers and Soft Machine to Caravan and Gong, each had a distinctive sound and, in many cases, image that captured the hearts and minds of their followers. But the scene's impact didn't end in the 70s. Phil Howitt, Facelift editor and Hugh Hopper's biographer, explores the new breed of progressive acts inspired by it, both consciously and unwittingly, and unearths the secrets of the 'Canterbury chord'.

III Is The Magic Number

With the release of III - Candles & Beginnings, Auri are finally taking their show on the road.

Just don't expect any Holopainen headbanging.

MAESTROWORKS

Bringing a hard-rock swagger and the majesty of metal to their own brand of prog rock, Magic Pie break a six-year studio silence with Maestro. Frontman Eiríkur Hauksson tells Prog about being a metalhead in a prog world, writing songs at bus stops, and feeling the heat on Cruise To The Edge.

GALAHAD

Forty years ago, a group of Dorset lads named their new band after a local fruit and veg delivery business, not an Arthurian knight as was widely perceived. They've since battled through numerous lineup changes and personal challenges, but Galahad never gave up on their musical quest.
