So how does this work? Doesn't look like you seeded them or else you wouldn't have PF v Yes Did you take names from a hat, or are you just being mischevious?
Toughest choices for me were Zappa over the Beatles - mostly because Zappa is more prog; and Bruford v ELP - I love Bruford's work but had to go with ELP. Also seems a shame to have to eliminate Floyd and TMV at this stage.
