 Please Note:  MULTIPLE IS ON!  Choose any/all that you are familiar with that you like.

In 2016 I responded to a post in which participants were asked to provide ranked lists of their top (up to) 300 favorite Prog songs/tracks.  Over the years since, I kept adding more to my list, until ending up with just over 400 in early 2021.  Here's the bottom 391-400 of the list.

I may or may not continue with these kinds of polls if they get an ok response (10 at a time moving up the list).  Just seeing how this goes.

Here's a snapshot of the actual list with some band/album/year info, followed by some vids of the less-known tracks.


Rank Track(s) Artist/Band Album Category/Sub Genre Year A
391 The Tango I-III Felix Martin The Scenic Album Heavy Prog 2013 2
392 Rockpommels Land Grobschnitt Rockpommels Land Symphonic Prog 1977 1
393 L' Oiseau Rouge Octobre Survivance Crossover Prog 1975 2
394 Cinema/Leave It Yes 90125 Symphonic Prog 1983 2
395 Grumpet Holvot (The Wolves Howl) Mari Boine Leahkastin Prog Folk 1995 4
396 Tenemos Road National Health National Health Canterbury Scene 1976 2
397 In The Region of the Summer Stars The Enid In The Region of the Summer Stars Symphonic Prog 1976 1
398 Simplicity Lift Caverns of Your Brain Symphonic Prog 1977 3
399 Munich Cressida Cressida Symphonic Prog 1971 2
400 Something Very Strange Spock's Beard Brief Nocturnes and Dreamless Sleep Symphonic Prog 2013 2

I voted for Yes, because I love that track. However, honourable mentions are owed to a classic Cressida track, one of my favourite Enid albums, and Spock's fuzzy chops.

Voted The Enid and National Health, Tenemos Road is one of the greatest opening tracks on a debut album.

"Tenemos Road" is one of my all-time favourite tracks, and will get my auto-vote. I very much enjoyed "Grumpet Holvot (The Wolves' Howl)" and that also will get my vote.

You're right, and its a great album too.  I think if I were still editing the list, I'd probably put Tenemos Road higher (might still do).  

Glad you like Mari Boine; to be honest, I'm not sure she's listed on PA--I should double-check.

Yeah, I really enjoyed Mari Boine (it's not the first time I've heard her but I don't remember hearing that before). Tenemos Roads would rank very high for me. For Canterbury Scene, and I love Canterbury Scene, probably not as high as Soft Machine's Moon in June.

PS. Love the chart to go along with the selections.

Something Very Strange has a groove I really like, and it’s kind of like the theme song for my life. I also voted for Cinema/Leave It because those tunes always make me smile.

Tenemos Road is a genuine classic, but I also have a soft spot for Cressida and Munich. Both got a vote from me. The Lift and Mari Boine-songs were new to me, but very nice too (actually I ended up giving a vote to all four of them).

Cool.  I didn't think I was going to, but I'm realizing Tenemos Road's gotta move up a lot, Munich moves up a bit too.   I still keep Simplicity about where it is--perhaps it takes a bit too long to develop (could be shorter and just as good), but still a great song/arrangement (I like the message too).  Tripping Over the Rainbow from them is also great and I'd put it about the same as Simplicity.

I guess people so far don't care as much for the Felix Martin, but I only found part III on youtube--part I and II precede and flow into 3 for about 5-6 minutes of funky hard off-beat tangos: I just love the sound of it!

...and tempted to move Octobre up a bit too after listening again.  I'd almost forgotten about the the 2nd part of the song: if it were just the opening theme I'd still like it, but I love how it breaks into that jamming instrumental!

All "hidden gems" to me.
