SEPARATED AT BIRTH
I am really enjoying the new Downes Braide Association album, Halcyon Hymns –I ordered it after reading your review in Prog 117. King Of The Sunset is superb and Roger Dean’s artwork is, as always, fantastic. But has anyone else noticed how much Chris Braide looks like Vincent Cavanagh from Anathema? I had to do a double-take!

Well spotted, Steve! Now turn to page 44 to read the lowdown on the album that’s reunited one of prog’s dream teams. Has anyone else spotted any prog doppelgängers? Let us know! – Deputy Ed.
AS YET UNTITLED!
Why did you ever drop the meaningful titles for the CDs in your mag? ‘This month’s best new music’ is not only boring, it’s unfortunately not always the case… You guys are so good at finding fun titles for articles and captions for band photos, I’m sure someone over there could spend a few minutes once a month to find a catchy title for the CD?
Pierre Widmer, Switzerland
We’ve received a lot of similar letters since we decided to simplify the titles of the CDs that come free with the print edition of Prog. It seems that many of you weren’t happy with our decision so, due to popular request, we’ve brought the titles back. We hope you enjoy this month’s titled CD! – Deputy Ed.
