Roman Bunka of Embryo, Aera and solo albums; he also played on several progressive radio plays, like for example "Goldberg - Ein Dutzend Täuschungen" by Maria Volk, an album that also featured (among others) Holger Czukay of Can and Robert Fripp. fantastic guitar and oud player, but hardly anyone knows him.
Friede and I suggested "progressive radio plays" as a new category once; F. M. Einheit of the Einstürzende Neubauten did a few of them too.
an excerpt pf an example for a prog radio play ("Eschen Junge Zwo", also by Maria Volk) can be heard here; the full play is an hour long:

it helps if you understand German, but I think you can figure out what a "prog radio play" is

The first name that sprang to mind when I saw this....John Paul Jones....always overshadowed by his bandmates but a fantastic musician and surely the best pre-Jaco bassist.

Gustavo Bazterrica, the guitarist from La Máquina de Hacer Pájaros. Since this is a rather under-appreciated phase in Charly García's career, it's easy to see why the band's guitarist doesn't really get much recognition.

Aaron Novick stole a number of things from Jake Reid, including but not limited to:
-The Poist-Rock sound
-The atomic bomb
-Loudness
-The line "What do you mean this thread isn't about Magma"
-Posting
-Existing
-Knowing things
-Liking Magma
-Having good musical taste

Reid is still superior in every single catagory.

Excellent! Such an amazing keyboardist(right?) from an amazing overlooked jazz fusion group.

I say everyone in Area. Especially the drummer (Giulio Capiozzo).

Lindsay Cooper. Both as player and composer.

I agree with everything you have to say. Especially for Area's keyboardist, he's absolutely crazy! And Fred Frith is kinda underrated, but most of HC is underrated anyway.

I think the musicians in Jethro Tull are generally overlooked, but all made important contributions to an amazing band. I can't even remember all of their names like I can for most of the other major prog bands.

I would argue Josh Scammell's earlier, more obscure works are even more important for the development of Poist rock.

Poist rock would not exist as we know it today without Jake Reid's pioneering work.
