Ha I actually remember when Carter was President and it was not good times had by all.  As to the Rush reference, bad choice of phrasing on my part.  I thought I'd implied that FZ and Rush fall outside of what I would consider prog in the 'traditional' sense that ELP and Tull are.  So I votes for ELP. 
 
Now if we're talking something other than 'traditional' prog, well that's another thread, where FZ will be waxing everyone's ass.

I do too actually... vaguely remembering the first vote I ever cast.. .honestly do remember this.. was in a mock election in school.  Voted for Carter over Ford.  Mom told me then if ever voted for the goddamned Republicans and didn't make over 250k a year I was a fool

I sure did learn at an early age just how to pick a winner LOL

My vote at the time was unfortunately a real one for Jimmy.  Well at least we got Billy Beer out of it, which of course, also, sucked.

Let me humbly say, I first stumbled upon PA when looking for reviews of Snakes and Arrows.

LOL face it ... ELP just are in a league their own brothers...

they can't help it if short sighted people ... on prog forums of all places call their music self-indulgent, pretentious, or overblown. That's right.. they wrote the book on it.. and all that came after.. were pale imitations....  they.. simply.. are prog.

Camel should have been on this list, as should Gentle Giant.

Of those 4, I choose Tull, but Camel and Gentle Giant are better.
