Giant Step - "On The Move!" {Indonesia} [1976] (prog rock)

One of legendary Indonesian progressive rock acts of the 70's, their music showed influences of the greats of prog rock, but still managed to deliver originality. They started in early 70's, went through a series of line-up changes with the "keepers of the flame" being Benny Soebardja and Albert Warnerin, and managed to release several albums before finally breaking up in 1986. Their best prog albums (as recommended by Denny Sakrie of M97FM) are Giant On The Move (produced by Nova Record Bandung), Kukuh Nan Teguh (Nova Record Bandung), and Persada Tercinta (Irama Tara Record). http://indoprog.cjb.net/

Thanks very much for Giant On The Move! I had been curious about Giant Step, and this is awesome and a lot better than I suspected it would be.

regards
Chris

Did you get the Madrigal album I posted for you ? Or manage to get round to reading my last comments ? Is there any point in posting another Madrigal album or keeping your link ?
