I should clarify that I LIKE Awaken and Echoes, I just get confused when people list them as favorite prog songs ever or favorites from Yes/Floyd. Those songs feel like "obligations" to me. And to emphasize (I think) Kirk's point, even as an old timer (I remember when Relayer and Trilogy and Trick of the Tail were released), I really like a lot of the new music coming out; take a look at the music we're adding to the moon every month - the majority of it is new stuff, released within the last 5 years. The spirit of progressive is NEWNESS, to me...
