Journey to the Other Side - Live at The Dunellen Theatre June 10, 2023 / For fans of Nektar, Van Der Graaf Generator and Progressive Rock! Formed in Germany in 1969, Nektar favored extended compositions and concept albums over the constraints of pop. They were among the progenitors of the progressive rock movement of the 1970s as well as the jam-band scene that arose in the late 1990s. Their sound traveled well to the States, where they enjoyed Top 40 success with "A Tab in the Ocean" (1972) and "Remember the Future" (1973). Nearly 20 albums and a half-century later, the band's artistic and personal charisma has earned them masses of devoted fans along with their latest album "The Other Side" (2020) which was Number 1 on Amazon Progressive Music. As they begin the next 50 years of their career, they kick it off with "Journey to the Other Side - Live at The Dunellen Theatre June 10, 2023". The band captures this with a 2CD/Blu-ray set with a 5-camera shoot and multi-track recording. Clocking in at over 2 and 1/2 hours and spanning the band's entire career with classics like "Remember the Future Parts 1 & 2", "A Tab in the Ocean", and many more. This recording has become a virtual remembrance of Nektar drummer and primary member Ron Howden who died suddenly at the ripe old age of 78 on September 29th, 2023. As founding member Derek "Mo" Moore states "I think you will enjoy being part of Nektar's 50th extended Anniversary Tour I know we did, Rest in Peace Ron"
