Interview with Eric Blackwood of Edison's Children

This week's guest on the International Prog Rock Rock is Eric Blackwood, one half of Edison's Children, the other half being bassist extraordinaire Pete Trewavas. How did this band form, how did Eric and Pete meet? Join me for three hours of great prog music with a great guest, and learn more about Eric and Pete's music, the genesis of there songs, the outtakes, and the future of this wonderful band.

Between the time Eric and I recorded this interview and now, the band has decided to release a single, A Million Miles Away, backed with 2 new songs and 3 remixes. Follow the link above to purchase either the album or the single... or both.

The International Prog Rock Show will now air once a month, on the first Friday of each month, for the foreseeable future. The reasons for this are many, but a major one is that doing a radio show on a weekly basis doesn't allow me to write comprehensive reviews of the CDs I receive. So for the moment the show will be monthly, probably 4 hours instead of 3, and will have more new music and more interviews.

And who knows, I may be able to bring the show to a bi-weekly format sooner than you think.

Prog On!
