Here's a few more Prog Carry-On film possibilities;
Carry On Doctor Z.
Carry On Screaming (Featuring Ian Gillan).
Carry On Henry (by Rick Wakeman, of course!)
Carry On Follow That Camel
Carry On For What Seems Like Eternity (by Yes).
I can just hear Kenneth Williams saying "Oooh, Mellotron", and Sid James saying "Kayak, kayak, kayak"
Which means there has to be;
Carry On Mellotron.

as Radiohead, or as influential as Deep Purple. (There are EASILY a
hundred metal bands for every prog band). That, and they are FAR less
consistent than any of the aforementioned bands. Also, this is
the band that popularized the notion that you had be a vituoso
(Whatever that means!) to be considered a 'progressive' musician. These
are Lord Qwerty's technical and moral reasons why he does not consider Yes to be a
progressive band.
Therefore, he believes that they should be removed from Prog Archives immediately.

Lord Qwerty needs a visuit to Lord Qwertty's personal shrink if he thinks YES ae not prog because Lord Qwerty is obviously TOTALLY OFF HIS NAFFIN TROLLY

I understand we all have to have a view, so LQ yours is no disgrace for creating such a sad argument (IMO) for creating this obscure thread and you and I know you are just been humurousbut they do write wonderous stories and everyone should create a ritual to listen to them every week THEN they will feel the full heart of the sunrise from the south side of the sky. Life is bad enough but without yes then I feel I could end up close to the edge and an owner of a lonely heart

I think I know what a power chord is, but what is a music turntable?
I agree, I love that stuff they play on MTV and FUSE. it rocks. it really answers the question once and for all. You can make a lot of sound with those things are your hips and not make any music; and you can so it for years, decades . . centuries? Nothing like clarity. I want my MTV.
