Man, this list really shows that England has been the best source of good music for a long time.

At the beginning of my prog awakening, it was pretty much exclusively Rush and Yes, so...Yes.
In fact, as much as I enjoy PF and KC, for me Yes wins by a mile here.

Although as Proctologist said PT is fast becoming a close second...

Great list!

I go with Genesis but could be VDGG or Jethro or Floyd. My list should include Hawkwind and Moody Blues and many others.

For the new bands: Anathema - very good!

Out of the newer bands on that list definitely Porcupine Tree.

I voted for PINK FLOYD,

but ELP, JETHRO TULL, YES and CAMEL are my favs too.

It is necessary to mention MOSTLY AUTUMN - in my opinion the best band appeared for the last 20 years.

You're missing Ozric Tentacles, so I went with the Floyd.
