These polls are getting a bit tedious. We need more originality cos' the outcome is so predictable with YES winning every time!

I think the title of this topic reveals it: there can only be one prog GIANT, albeit a gentle one.

Hm im rather surprised that there is so few that has Jethro Tull as their favourite band when they have got masterpieces like Thick as a brick...but i have not heard all Tull records so they might be really bad

All of these bands are among my favourites (well, perhaps not Genesis...), but I voted for King Crimson, as they are the most consistent in the list.

What's yours?

Why couldn't Rush be included with this?

Pink Floyd

They were able to sustain music perfection for 3 or arguably 4 albums in a row. Yes and Genesis had several awesome albums but also some which are quite bad!

Dont make me chose a second between Yes and ELP!
Well McGarnical Billy is dead! They slit his throat from ear to ear!

  3. Jethro Tull
