I think this poll option allowing multiple votes isn't actually working good. You can vote the same album again.

Only 11 out of 25. I don't buy music anymore, I just stream it.  I bought those 11 when I was younger, before I heard of KC, GG, VDGG, Camel etc. I live in Kentucky in the United States, and in the 80s it was hard to discover anything like prog. I was the only one I knew who listened to music like this and that was because I would discover it by accident at the local record store. For instance, I picked up albums by Kate Bush, Marillion, and Yes because I liked the covers and they were cheap--they had a notch cut out of the covers to indicate they were discounted because nobody in America knew who they were.  And I bought my first Pink Floyd purchase "A Nice Pair"--their first two albums in one package--because I was a teenager, and there was a fresh pair of tits on the cover.  Needless to say, I was clueless as to the incredible explosion of creativity that lie inside of those humble discounted packages. It kind of made me ashamed of American musical tastes, at least for awhile.

The teams put a lot of effort checking and adding bands every day FOR FREE.

Almost all the bands that the Symphonic Team has added in the last years have a thread about them in an open section of the forum.

This year we approved (Among a couple suggested by PM):

  1. 21. Peron:  http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=91343&KW=21%2E+Peron
  2. Francis Lickerish: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=90959&KW=Francis+Lickerish
  3. Iraklis: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=91909&KW=Iraklis
  4. Falling Edges: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=92852&KW=Falling+Edge
  5. Taurus (NL): http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=96074&KW=Taurus
  6. Alms: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=93869&KW=ALMS
  7. Hokus Pokus: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=94155&KW=Hokus+Pokus
  8. Fright Pig: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=94924&KW=Fright+Pig and http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=94487&KW=Fright+Pig
  9. Sea Vine: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=95714&KW=Sea+Vine
  10. XNA: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=95785&KW=XNA
If you haven't found the threads, is because you haven't searched for them...ALL THE TEAMS HAVE A SIMILAR WORKING SYSTEM

We used to have a thread where we informed about every band added, but only 2 or 3 members outside the collaborators cared about, so we decided it was a waste of our free and family time to create a thread nobody cared about.

Now each and every team has a thread in the collaborators section.

You will open a can of worms.........

Not trying to start World War Prog or anything...Miles is clearly a jazz master but I don't see how in the world his music can be considered prog Wink

Davis is here for a reason, he has a few clear fusion albums, Kind Of Blue is definitely not one of them as incredible as it is.

I went back and read the previous Miles Davis prog debate threads so there's no point in rehashing old arguments.  It just seems bizarre to me that "Kind of Blue" is rated as "Essential: A Masterpiece of Progressive Rock Music" when even it's fans say it's not prog.  Whatever Ermm
