Interesting choice.
One of my top five from the list, most definitely  ------------- Les mains, les pieds balancés Sur tant de mers, tant de planchers, Un marin mort, Il dormira - Paul Éluard |

Tough call, but seeing as henry Cow haven't got any votes yet I'll go with them - on a different day it could be Magma or UZ. There isn't a band on your list that I don't like, though. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...'

Art Zoyd or Magma. I can't choose. There's still some important albums I have to hear of Art Zoyd before I can compare them to other bands. I love the Faust album. Magma is an incredible band. No, I cant choose. ------------- http://www.lastfm.se/user/wilmon91" rel="nofollow - last.fm |

Zappa would've won too easily... and I consider him Eclectic Prog anyway.  I'll go with Henry Cow, great band... Miriodor is cool too, and Dun would have been a good addition, I heard their album last night. Good stuff.

Univers Zero. Every band up there (that I've heard) is awesome, though. |

| I went to Henry Cow. I think that "LegEnd" is a good album. |

Where is Zappa and Samla Mammas Manna?
Mr. Bungle? Sleepytime? French TV? Surely those guys deserve some recognition too.  Oh, well. Based on those listed, I went with Henry Cow. I'd be very surprised if it isn't them or Univers Zero who ultimately get the majority of votes.

I have to say Rio/Zeuhl has started to grow on me and some interviews with the bands is on it's way. In the choice between Present and Shub Niggurath, I went for the latter one. I just think they deserve some attention here. But it was a flip of a coin decision. |

Personal bias, but I wouldn't put any of those on the same pedestal as most of the listed choices. And I would have been very surprised not to see Magma take it. Though I went with Art Zoyd, I'm hardly unhappy to see Magma, which I truly love, in the lead, and Magma was an influence on Art Zoyd. Incidently, I prefer Hoyry-Kone to Alamaailman Vasarat, but certainly do like both. |

Magma is my favourite but in order to support a less known band I voted - like a real chauvinist - for Aranis. |
