I think the early Camel works are very hard rock'n. The heavy crimson parts don't sound very rock'n to me.

well....It's Kansas of course, and then Rush... but from the list, I'll have to go with JT as well.

P.S. When YES decided to rock, they RAWKED!!!! (see "Release, Release" for example)

isn't that a Whistler poll?



Quiet you fool! You want people to vote in this thing, right? 

Ahem. As for me...hmm...a true battle between Tull and Crimso, with ELP tagging just behind.

I gotta go with Tull, as they are the only band that I can see Beavis and Butthead rocking out to.

"In the shuffling madness...of locomotive breath..."

"Uh...this is pretty cool.."

"Hehe, yeah this rocks!"

*headbanging ensues*

"Whoa check it out dude...codpieces rule!"

"Hehehe yeah! That's like armor for your wiener!"

"Yeah, you can't be too careful with like, groupies and stuff."

*More headbanging*

I'm surprised King Crimson isn't running away with this.They were very heavy in 1974 and their last album "Power To Belive" still rocks heavily.

I voted for KC, but were Rush here they would have gotten the vote without a doubt.
