I agree, Snow Dog; my favourite is IQ, by a country mile (although I really want to give Glass Hammer a try someday soon)... and they aren't even listed!!!

Well since Marillion and Eloy are the only bands from this list that I trully know, and taking in consideration that Eloy was from the 70's My choice will be.............................................
..................................................drum roll........................................................ ..........
............................................................ ............................................................ .........
..............just building up the suspense.................................................... ......................
............................................................ ............................................................ .........
............................................................ ............................................................ .........
............................................................ ............................................................ ..........
............................................................ ............................................................ ...........
............................................................ ............................................................ ...........
............................................................ ............................................................ ..........
................Marillion ............................................................ ...

anyway, would love to see Arena, IQ, Pendragon and some others inluded in the poll

My choice is IQ, surprise surprise (well it would be if they were in the poll  )

Never recorded a bad album although the first 2 albums are a bit rough and ready soundwise.Even their 'pop album' Are You Sitting Comfortably is still an enjoyable listen while The Seventh House,Ever and Subterranea are three of the best prog albums recorded since 1980.

From that list I am familar with Marillion (not convinced by them - only Seasons End is a 'classic' IMO),Glass Hammer (havnt existed long enough but good band and one I enjoy a lot),Eloy (their best albums straddle the seventies and the eighties,so do they really belong in this poll?) ,Porcupine Tree (zzzzzzz...) and Flower Kings (excellent band but I prefer IQ)

i notice that Dream Theater, Spock's Beard and Transatlantic aren't there. Sort of makes it difficult to vote...
It's only knock and knowall, but I like it...
