ALIEN ROCK
Host: Reynolds the Psychedelic Warlord
When it comes to defining “full spectrum” look no farther than this aural soundscape that airs on alternating Thursdays. Rooted in varied rock styles from the late 60s to the present, but really keying on the bands and artists who defined the psychedelic/progressive rock explosion of the late 60s/early 70s.
For more than four decades, Reynolds has shared a keen insight and wealth of knowledge for what is widely viewed as “underground” music. This is one of only a handful of true progressive rock programs in the country. “It’s like Bach, Mozart and Beethoven to me,” Reynolds says of prog rock, “timeless music that people will love.”
