Description

The Progressive Underground Volume Two by Kev Rowland In the late 1980s and early 1990s, progressive rock was thriving in secret. Without mainstream media coverage, it relied on word of mouth, fanzines, and independent magazines to spread its message. One such magazine, Feedback, played a crucial role in promoting the underground scene, with Kev Rowland at its helm as secretary and reviewer. Under Rowland's guidance, Feedback became a key promoter of progressive rock, helping to bring new music and bands to light. Although the magazine eventually ceased publication, its legacy lives on through the Amplified website, which has been running for over 30 years. This book is a testament to the enduring spirit of the underground scene, and offers a unique insight into the world of progressive rock. Through his writing, Kev Rowland shares stories from the early days of Feedback, and explores the ways in which the magazine helped shape the progressive rock scene. With its behind-the-scenes look at the music industry, this book is a worthwhile read for fans of the genre.
