Me too! Who would've guessed that Henry Cow would get more votes than Hawkwind!?

I'm still surprised to see Hawkwind being so overlooked

As a recent convert to the marvellous music of Marillion (thanks to Cristi), it's good to see Marillion made it into the final Top 10, although I'm still mystified as to how Gentle Giant made it into 9th place in the rankings, above Camel, IQ and Renaissance.

1. Van Der Graaf Generator
2. Pink Floyd 3. Jethro Tull 4. King Crimson 5. Rush 6. Can 7. Yes 8. ELP 9. Camel 10. Egg No surprises here, except for Egg I guess. Bubbling under: Gentle Giant, Magma, Gnidrolog, Neu! and a bunch of others, but I went for the ones that made an early and lasting impression on me and whom I can safely return to whenever I like.

Yeah, the vocals are a bit of challenge for me, as well.

quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond

I love Marburg once I got past the kooky vocals. I also love "Rhapsody" and "Only a Star", but they are very different from Marburg.

Hi there.
TBH I wasn't looking to make any point. I was just expressing that I would have expected Hawkwind to appear in the top 20 at least. And I would have expected Marillion to have outsold bands such as King Crimson and Camel. No point intended. If anything this underlines how incorrect my perceptions have turned out to be. |
