   Hi everyone
I'm VERY new to Prog Rock - ie. less than 3 mths.  Since then I've bought some Genesis, Jethro Tull, Yes, King Crimson & Floyd 70's albums.  I've heard about Caravan, Gentle Giant, and ELP but I'm looking for more suggestions... what are some other staples? I was very disappointed with 'Kindness To Strangers' by Spock's Beard.  The vocals are unlistenable and weak... are Flower Kings or Transatlantic better?  I don't like any hard rock or metal.
Any help would be appreciated.   I also recently purchased Return to Forver's 'Romantic Warrior' from Amazon & am waiting for it to arrive.
My two fave albums right now are 'Selling England By The Pound' and 'The Court Of The Crimson King'.
Cheers.
