Well, it may have not have been hard, but the only question I got wrong was the question about F&&^& Bon Jovi, a band I am proud to know very little about. And very little is too much to know about Bon f(*&^ Jovi!

The same.  I think Mr Shulman was overwelmed by the flamboyant and ultra-intricated keyboard riff of "Runaway"

Only missed the Bon Jovi question, I already doubted very much, but put my money on Simple Minds, with hindsight I should have known since Simple Minds and U2 started before 1983 and the other band it wasn't for sure, so the only option should have been JBJ.

 
The debut album was a bit more difficult, missed Traffic (which i only know by name) and i missed Mahavishnu orchestra, should have known that one, gambled correctly with PFM, but was a 75% shot, was almost certain i had it correct, but not convinced untill i saw he result.

6/10 on classic prog ... but I don't see the point of some of the questions, it's more like a proto-prog quiz.

It was quite fun.

I did 8/10 on both the classic prog quiz and the debuts quiz.

There were also to PF quizes. The PF Fun quiz and the PF Trivia quiz. Both 8/10 too.
I'm running still,
I shall until,
one day I hope that I'll arrive

i got 5 out of 10......but I come from progressive metal, so I'm ok with that.  It's better than my friend who got 1 (and I helped him with it).
