PROGRES 2 – legendary rock group from Brno. It was founded in 1968 under the original name The Progress Organization by musicians Zdeněk Kluka and Pavel Váně. Their very first LP - The Progress Organization - Barnodaj - became the record of 1972 according to Melodie magazine critics. They already released their second LP - Mowglí - under the group's "normalized" name - Barnodaj. In the times of the most rigid normalization, they stopped working for several years. They revived it under the new name PROGRES 2 in 1978, when for the first time they presented the experimental audiovisual project Dialogue with the Universe (the first Czechoslovak rock opera). They continued in similar demanding projects on other albums (Třetí kniha junglí, Mozek, Zmena).
