Pink Floyd running neck and neck with King Crimson, really?
I thought this was a “progressive rock” site?

And as we all know "progressive rock" bands can't possibly sell albums -- a prohibition of album sales being a fundamental commandment in the Prog Koran. There is only one God and Fripp is his guitarist!

For myself, one band is always at least moderately interesting (and sometimes really brilliant), and the other is... errrrr, not (except for when they had a soon-to-go-off-his-rocker singer who left in '68).

With the remarkable rise of Prog Salafism I don't have the guts to post a cartoon of Fripp in this thread .

Am I sensing the Prog Trinity being postulated here? Fripp the Fripp, Fripp the Guitarist, and Fripp the Soundscape?

I fear not. Especially since mine paints a heroic picture of holy Fripp.

^ It's the work of this guy called DougSide from a few years back. Fripp himself found it and loved it.

Hey! It's a great result at the moment: 50% and 50 votes for each band!

Pink Floyd.

When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night.
