How d'ya suppose Dylan & The Band fit in to all this?

Couldn't folkie-goes-electric be seen as the prog of '65?

(And those cats from The Band play their instruments as well as anybody ever has . . . especially Garth Hudson. Epic organ solo anyone?)

Not sure how much the "space" stuff is important . . .


I think of The Band are the North American Fairports. They were backwards looking (in a good way) not sure there was anything utopian about them as their view of American history is not idealised. Romantic perhaps. I would have loved to have heard Yes with Levon Helm instead of Bruford and VdGG with Hudson instead of Banton.
