I would like to put in my two cents. I know Gentle Giant is'nt really an instrumental band, but "The Boys in the Band" is the best instumental I have ever heard. It is dynamic, fun and interesting from start to finish--characteristics often lacking in instrumentals.

Crimson. Listen to Red. Also, the Devil's Triangle, the Talking Drum, and Indiscipline (Kinda sorta. There is spoken word here, but I consider it instrument.)

Yes and King Crimson have consistently had great instrumentalists. I think KC has been more willing to explore different idioms while Yes has finally returned to it's roots after the eighties dance craze. Therefor my hats off to KC even though I'm an ardent Yes fan.

*does a double take*
Jethro Tull, a band that's recorded about four instrumentals in a career spanning well over thirty years, but no mention of FOCUS?
Good God!

I don't know if i should be voting conisidering that I haven't heard all the bands listed. But I am also extremely prejudice and voted for KC anyway... Back when I did alot of drugs  Devil's Triangle was a "Journey Man, A f**king JOURNEY!!!" but nowadays LEVEL FIVE!!!!!! everyone here has to hear LEVEL FIVE before voting! also: Thrakk, Red, Vroom and Dangerous Curves but Level Five is essential, Best instrumental song... Ever! Except for Starless and Bible Black of course. but it has words in it.

Emerson Lake & Palmer have the most beautiful instrumentals around. The Three Fates.. that second fate is just incredible. The bass entrance into The Barbarian. Toccata.. Aquatarkus... 2nd Impression...Changing States... Close to Home..
