Rush. I have always wished they would do an all - instrumental album. It's a real treat when songs like La Villa Strangiato, YYZ, Where's My Thing, or Leave That Thing Alone come around on the MP3 player shuffle - play. Nothing against Geddy Lee's voice, but the band is at their best just playing their instruments.
Arguing with anonymous strangers on the internet is a sucker's game because they almost always turn out to be or seem to be self-righteous sixteen-year-olds possessing infinite amounts of free
time.

I'm dissappointed that ELP are leading in the poll. They're just too boring
and pompous, and are the reason why it took me so long to appreciate
prog. No other group excells at shaping instrumentals than King Crimson.
One listen to the Lark's Tongue album is all you need.

If that's your opinion... I don't want to get in an argument.

ELP votes now at 1358?

Easy for you to say... The only ELP instrumental I like is the Barbarian. I didn't vote for them, I voted for Rush (once).
