My favorite band is Tangerine Dream, but I don't like them in 70's, so I voted for Klaus Schulze.

Well, I think Genesis and Yes are the best, they are prog GODS and they have their own private "class" of "Prog Gods"...

I think King Crimson, Rush, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Gentle Giant, ELP and the rest are absolute geniuses and they are as close as you can get to be prog gods but... just not quite....

 

Therefore, It was either Yes or Genesis for me... I voted Genesis just because Yes always seem to win polls! thats odd...

Since many important bands are missing (Gentle Giant, Camel, Renaissance, Curved Air, Strawbs, Gryphon, King Crimson, Fireballet, Steeleye Span, VDGG, Eno, etc.) it's a useless poll.  Therefore, I'm not going to vote!!!!!  Ha ha.

Yeah and why no Brits allowed? We invented prog rock (aswell as heavy rock and heavy metal) so why aren't we allowed to have a say?

I just took it as a joke. At least I think that's how it was intended.
One likes to believe
In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion
Of integrity

From that list: Jean-Michel Jarre, but I voted Genesis because they are one of the pioneers of Prog Rock!
