Prog related artists are not considered for those lists.

Well, I won't say, I miss The Beatles here. Big smile

I guess the proto-prog and prog-related categories are not taken into account for the overall PA lists (and rightly so, I think).

Anyway, I don't know what the purpose of this thread (and undoubtedly the following ones) is, since PA is already an inventory...? But I wish you a lot of fun with it.

being a collaborator has got nothing to do with posting in the forums (or the quantity of that). It's a contribution to the archive, evaluating suggested bands, adding bands and albums. 


Is that true for honorary collaborators?  Or the folks who vote for the collaborators end-of-the-year album list? 
I ask, because I voted one year....submitted my top 20 albums.  I wasn't a collaborator. Smile 

As far as i know, honorary collaborators were either collabs/special collabs, prog-reviewers, they didn't get the "honorary" for nothing. Their contribution to the site meant something. 

" collaborators end-of-the-year albums" - this one is obvious, isn't it?
I don't know to what list you contributed... you have to give more info for that... Confused

I doubt if I'd make a good PA collaborator anyway. How on earth would I ever find the time!?? And besides, many of the collaborators in war movies I've seen end up getting shot. Ouch

The ultimate list! A year-by-year inventory of Prog Archives' Top Albums, including all available album links and (some questionable) album ratings, so don't be too surprised if your favourite Avant Prog album from any particular year receives a measly 1 or 2-star rating from yours truly.  Tongue

1967    The year of the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper album and the Summer of Love for Psychedelic Rock with Jimi Hendrix setting his guitar (and the world) on fire at the Monterey Pop Festival. 1967 is also the year when it all began for Progressive Rock (if you don't include Miles Davis) with debut albums from The Nice, Pink Floyd, Procol Harum, Traffic and the newly-reformed Moody Blues.
