These are great and would certainly deserve a vote, but are all too familiar to me, and so I vote elsewhere:
Can
Henry Cow
Clearlight

These are my top 4 out of those I didn't know or had heard only once long ago:
Gnidrolog
Anthony Phillips
Residents
Embryo

Just about missed out (honorary mention):
Grobschnitt
FM
Airlord

This is where my votes will go to:

The Residents Avant-garde and experimental music always arouse my interest. I find it all the more exciting that this is an art collective that uses multi-media. These guys are also fun and entertaining. I’m sure it would be a pleasure to attend a concert/show of theirs, and hey, they are still active!

Association P.C. Indeed, an outstanding experimental jazz rock combo. It is remarkable that such quality of this music style came out of Europe in the early 70s. Kudos!

FM Here we dive into rockier territories but the sound of this band is different, it is enriched by the use of instruments uncommon in rock music, such as violin, electric mandolin etc. Black Noise is a dynamic and catchy track but also a varied and coherently composed one, including rhythm changes and calmer sequences. I also like the vocals; they complement and are well incorporated into the piece.

Clearlight Symphonic prog with a new-age twist whereby I particularly enjoy the sound of individual calssical instrumnts. “Spirale d’amour’ is maybe a bit of a chaotic composition but it is regardless a quite interesting and pleasant piece.

Hot candidates for my 70s road trip playlist:

Split Enz, Roxy Music and Mr. Albert Show.

1. Henry Cow
2. High Tide
3. Grobschnitt
4: Either Airlord, The Residents, Sfinx, Luciano Cilio or Mr. Albert Show. I give the edge to Sfinx.

So, this was a top notch listening experience, not just the 22 nominated tracks, but actually most of everything put up here. Now, trying to get to vote for four is not easy, especially deciding the fourth one...

Without hesitation, my number one spot is for a true masterpiece - I ordered and received the vinyl in the mean time: Luciano Cilio - Secondo Quadro della Conoscenza

Then, FM and Split Enz were the good surprises for me and get my vote too.

My fourth vote is a bit more arbitrary. It could go to Can, Roxy Music, Association PC, but if I choose a track I'm less familiar with, then it goes to Henry Cow. That's what I do.

Great round!

Yes, great playlist. Shows a greater diversity of the 70s that most don't think of. I would be curious to see how this would go over if it was put out on the Prog Poll forum for all PA members to vote on.

Embedding just for me are versions that play in U.S. (I don't think anyone else participating is in the U.S.)

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

^ Thank you, yes I prefer an embedded playlist, it avoids many annoying ads. And thank you Mila for compiling it.
Listening to the playlist now (about halfway) and this is one of the most outstanding prog playlists ever! A great pleasure to listen to all those tracks. Thank you everybody!

Thanks Mila! The playlist shows up in full now when I click on the link. It wasn't before for some reason. But, 3 of the tracks are country restricted (Gnidrolog, High Tide, and Can) but I have found videos of those that do play for me.

I clicked the link above and it worked for me. I did switch to 'public playlist'. I entered the playlist title in the youtube search engine and it's there.- Sometimes youtube authomatically reduces the playlist. If you're using your computer, the playlist title is located top right from the video player. If you're using the phone, the playlist title appears below the video player. The playlist title is: "Interactive Poll: 70s Prog Favs". Click on the title and the full playlist should appear. The playlist includes 22 tracks. I hope there are no country restrictions. Here's the link once again, just in case:

Dear friends, I thank you all for your big effort and your passion.
