Pink Floyd's ground-breaking album The Dark Side of the Moon was the result of a long creative process that began around A Saucerful of Secrets the main track from the eponymous album was, for Nick Mason at least, where it all began. Their next album Ummagumma gave each band member the opportunity to create a solo piece, though they would have to combine their talents if they wanted to hit the jackpot.
Pink Floyd continued to search for the perfect record with Meddle, an album which highlighted their skills in the studio, and Atom Heart Mother, before they reached nirvana with The Dark Side of the Moon.
Britpop is deeply linked to politics and local identity and emerged just as Tony Blair and New Labour were entering the scene. English romanticism was once again becoming attractive compared to the American identity, which was considered too hollow in the UK. In , Nirvana was born: the most unexpected punk swerve of the end of the 20th century.

The back-to-back success of The Stranger and 52nd Street may have brought Billy Joel fame and fortune, even a certain amount of self-satisfaction, but it didn't bring him critical respect, and it didn't dull his anger. If anything, being classified as a mainstream rocker -- a soft rocker -- infuriated him, especially since a generation of punks and new wave kids were getting the praise that eluded him. He didn't take this lying down -- he recorded Glass Houses. Comparatively a harder-rocking album than either of its predecessors, with a distinctly bitter edge, Glass Houses still displays the hallmarks of Billy Joel the pop craftsman and Phil Ramone the world-class hitmaker.
Even its hardest songs -- the terrifically paranoid "Sometimes a Fantasy," "Sleepin' With the Television On," "Close to the Borderline," the hit "You May Be Right" -- have bold, direct melodies and clean arrangements, ideal for radio play.
Instead of turning out to be a fiery rebuttal to his detractors, the album is a remarkable catalog of contemporary pop styles, from McCartney-esque whimsy "Don't Ask Me Why" and arena rock "All for Leyna" to soft rock "C'etait Toi [You Were the One]" and stylish new wave pop "It's Still Rock and Roll to Me," which ironically is closer to new wave pop than rock.
That's not a detriment; that's the album's strength. It may not be punk -- then again, it may be his concept of punk -- but Glass Houses is the closest Joel ever got to a pure rock album. Listen to over 70 million songs with an unlimited streaming plan.

Influence is a shapeless thing, moving and rearranging based on sounds from the past and how they align with sounds from the present. In the case of progressive rock, a genre relocated from the pop charts to sheet music stands and art rock-favored stereos over the past four decades, influence has shifted in a similar way—later records that expanded the lexicon have lapped previous records with the incorporation of new styles, cultures and their corresponding sounds.
Prog may not be burning up the rock charts, but you can see the everlasting influence of the genre in bands ranging from Tool to Kanye West and beyond. With that said, here are ten crucial progressive rock releases for and beyond. Categories: All Back. See entire Jazz catalogue. See entire Classical catologue. See the entire Electronic catalogue.
