I tried to include as many countries and subs as possible. Of course I left out your favourite band from whatever country.

Horslips, one of the best bands ever to play music.
Kayak also deserve a very honorable mention.

I vote in favour of Indexi, just above Kayak, Supersister and Horslips. The reason: Modra Rijeka is one of those albums on top of the prog catalog.

From that list I like Supersister, Cos, Brainticket, Eela Craig, and Hypnos69 the most...........
I suppose if push came to shove I'd choose Supersister but I also like Hypnos quite a bit.

Easy for me: Horslips. Note there is no "e" in the name, but how else will you pronounce it? Hor-slips? That sounds even worse.
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

Kayak-don't know all of their material, but love the mid-seventies period very much.

Eela Craig! A lot of good bands on that list. I like early East, but am not familiar with their other albums.

Vote for Buldozer, ex-Yugoslavian avant-prog band.

This is the song from their eponymous 1977 album Zabranjeno plakatirati ("Posters not allowed").

Cos over Supersister and Brainticket. Cos' first three albums are, for me, sublime.

A lot of great bands here. After Crying for me, even though I was listening to Kayak half a hour ago.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Right !
I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.
