Jethro Tull made your list twice! They really are the tops, eh?
Sorry, it was a stupid mistake created when editing the list because when I think in a band, 10 more come to my mind and I always edit this posts endlesly trying to find the fair list (What is never really achieved), here is my correct list:

  1. Genesis
  2. Anglagard
  3. Pink Floyd
  4. Triumvirat
  5. ELP
  6. PFM
  7. Jethro Tull

Caravan really deserves to be up there, but I couldn't justify displacing any of the bands I submitted...even the ones I don't like had so much impact they made the list.
