I haven't see this poll in the forum, I suggest the first names that cames into my mind and only one for the 6 major bands imho, i'm pretty sure that there are another 500 names that could be on the list, but for that I put a choice... ------------- Please forgive me for my crappy english! |

I voted for Gabriel in this facade of a charade of a pointless footle-fingle* * - You all should know what that is of course ! ------------- Play me my song, here it comes again |

| I voted for Keith Emerson. For only a three-piece, he provided much of the music in the band. They were also one of the more popular progressive rock bands. This makes him, in my eyes, the best artist in prog rock. |

voted for another guy, agree with Joren, like him or
leave him, ol brown eyes is the one that started it all. Frank Zappa prog goes back to the early 60's, before anyone else had it going on Frank was underground in California doin it! |

Have to go with Fripp. Who on this list has stayed as innovative as Fripp? Fripp refuses to let his music get stale and become a dinosaur, I can’t say the same for the rest except maybe Gabriel. |

I didn't see Peart, Lifeson or Lee on that list I'd say Zappa obviously takes it but since he wasn't there I voted that you were on crack |

Syd Barret? He never released a single progressive rock note, he was a purely psychedelic artist, Pink Floyd evolved to prog' with Dave Gilmour and Roger Waters. I agree Video_Vertigo, the poll maker is in crack. Iván |

Depends what you mean by important in this context. Influential? Sold the most albums? Defined the genre?? Gabriel gets my vote for being a quintessential English prog rock star, and defining a genre that was forged in England. But I would say that, I'm more of a Genesis fan than a Yes, KC, ELP or JT fan..

Peter Hammill is much more influential than many imagine, so he is the one to name. Also he never sold out. -------------  BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |

Mr. Fripp deserves a medal for his contribution to prog. Well, audience, does this man deserve an applause or what?
