From the eclectic conference we have one of the most important Polish bands of the seventies!!

From..ahh.. Poland.

SBB!!!!!



From the Krautrock conference we have one of the most dynamic and hard luck bands of the golden age.

From Germany

AMON DUUL II



Vegas oddmakers nearly took this one off the board but have installed ADII as a 30 vote favorite anticipating a rout LOL

Can't vote here. I really love Josef Skrzek (or how the hell is written) but ADII is one of the apostles of Krautrock

ADII is one of my top 5 prog bands of alltime and make such classic albums. I can't not vote for them.

Not too familiar with either band but SBB sound suits me better so I voted for them.

German prog always appeals to me. ADII are unique and influential and have a string of superb 70's albums so get my vote.

Yep, I have and love ADII's first five albums. I have the first three SBB albums and like those a lot, though. Józef Skrzek's Ojciec chrzestny Domnika is a great album.
