No Van der Graaf Generator

I was on the verge of voting Pink Floyd, but eventually voted Other in
absence of VdGG...

Zappa's band was my favorite.

Then King Crimson, Gentle Giant, and Yes.
Trust me. I know what I'm doing.

For me it's Yes, They've got so many good albums, As do most prog giants, But Yes, For me, Are a small step up above the rest. I mean come on!

  • The Yes Album
  • Fragile
  • Close to the Edge
  • Tales From Topographic Oceans
  • Relayer

To me that is a clear no questions asked run of masterpieces. 'Going for the One' comes very close also

But I can't very strongly disagree with those who say Genesis or Pink Floyd either, Prog gave us some massively great bands

Hmm, strange list, The Beatles are the best band here but this is a strange mixture of prog, proto-prog, prog-related and God knows what.

A slight absence of Canterbury I fear...

Also, lack of KC, VDGG, GG makes poll invalid.

Other-  The Clash. I guess you didn't required that band is kinda prog pure blood, since I see that Queen, Purple and Beatles are on the list.

Although I love Genesis, Yes, KC, VdGG and many many other bands, PF was, is and will be my all-time favourite band (for their brilliant five albums - Meddle, DSOTM, WYWH, Animals and The Wall). Nothing else really matters ;-)
PF, Genesis, KC, Yes, VdGG, GG, Camel, Jethro Tull
