This time around we explore the year 1987 as we ramp up to the best of 2017. Prog was not much of an overflowing cup in 1987 but what there was you will find here. Despite the lack of prog, I remember 1987 well and as this show will make clear, there was a lot of good music emerging at the time. 1987 is not quite the death throes of new wave but perhaps the luster lost some of its shine, while other bands remained true to their vision. At any rate, there is something here for all fans of music.
