Nice poll. I gave a quick few seconds to the things that I didn't know on the playlist. Actually I hadn't heard the Can live thing, now listening to it in full. Predictably I love it. None of the others that I hadn't known before could scratch at the top tracks here, which are Spectral Morning 2015, Heavy Horses, Mother Russia, and Hazard Profile (more good ones are there).

A bit late. I started listened to the playlist before, and returned to it, mostly skipping through. The Can I listened to twice -- strange flushing noise. ;) But a Royal Flush as it's royally good for me. Most of this is out of my wheelhouse and I did not listen in full to the vast majority of the playlist (with some I know them so well already, anyway). Of those I know well, the Caravan and Renaissance (love the Snow Goose generally...) appeals. The one I most enjoyed listening to is Can's Aston 77 Dre and so I will slip that a most deserved vote per my interests.

Finally found some moments to browse through the playlist... Many enjoyable and good tracks, but for me, in this collection, only two really stood out: Catherine of Aragon and Hazard Profile, Pt. 1. Then there is a dozen that could compete for a third vote, but I choose the easy way and keep it to two votes. |

Some strong groups listed (Camel, Jethro, Renaissance, Caravan, Focus), but not quite their stronger songs or ones I'd recommend. But it's a start.

Renaissance's Mother Russia is a favorite of mine. I wonder what would have happened if she saw me rolling along the sidewalk instead of walking on it.

I am not familiar with all of the tracks, but of the ones I know I find it a good list. I never listen to Amazon's playlists, but I do look at the recommended albums they give me. Too lazy today to cast multiple votes, I voted for Anthony Phillips as I just listened to his new release and liked it quite a bit.

Interesting seeing Ninet Tayeb on that list! I guess she is prog-adjacent due to her collaborations with Steven Wilson. I've been enjoying her stuff lately.

Focus, Big Big Train, Frost* plus the 2015 version of Spectral Mornings which was a charity single in aid of finding a cure for Parkinson's, Dementia and other dehabilitating brain illness/conditions.

Some random notes.
Steve Hackett appears three times on this list. He is on White Dove from his most recent album The Circus and the The Nightengale. He guests on the reworking of his track Spectral Mornings, which has vocals added by David Longdon and Christina Booth. And he also guests on the Steve Rothery track Morpheus. The prog connection for Arild Brøter's reworking of Her Majesty's Secret Service is that Airbag's Bjørn Riis plays guitar on that track. The Genesis Piano Project is the collaboration of pianists Adam Kromelow and Angelo Di Loreto on grand pianos interpreting the music of Genesis. Angelo Di Loreto passed away just before the release of their debut album. Adam Kromelow has been carrying on as solo act.
