Don't forget creative epics like Stonehenge and more importantly, the progginess of Big Bottom:

Uncomfortably close to some of our real prog faves, methinks...

And we can't forget Nigel Tufnel's three part Mach* piece in D minor (the saddest of all keys), "Lick My Lovepump"

(*Mozart + Bach influenced = Mach)

I say 'Yes' just so we can read the funny album reviews...

I vote yes, purely because if there was one band who SHOULDN'T be on this site it'd be Spinal Tap, But since we're clearly going in that direction anyway, Sure why not?

Spinal Tap being one of the most accurate parodies and satires on the egotistic
beast which is the 70's-80's Rock Band culture draws much of its inspiration
from the Prog-Rock genre. The albums released by the "band" are not only clever
satires of some Prog-Rock but offer insight into  some of the 'heavy' thought processes
which many bands felt the need to pursue in order to feel relevant.
The music is thoroughly enjoyable as well!

I vote Yes!!
