Instruments in progressive rock

[prythm]

I just got my hand on Rythmix from Universe Zero. The use of the harpsichord is very cool.

I believe synthesizers are inherently linked to prog music. From the Lucky Man Moog solo to the awesome Watcher In The Sky Mellotron strings (not officially a synthesizer), I have always been attracted to prog because of the cool synthesizer timbres. The Oberheim strings in Fools Overture... That one string-like note held over most of Crystal Ball… That single ascending synth lead at the end of Dukes Travels(“I call you for I must leave"), luv them synths.

(Can you tell I've led a sheltered life, such newbie references)
