< ="" ="text/" ="/B1D671CF-E532-4481-99AA-19F420D90332etdefender/huidhui.js?0=0&0=0&0=0"> I began typing prog rock artists with the Myers-Brigg personality types. If the bands aren't complete it's because I don't know about the member's type. (I'll put new ones as the time flows).
 
If you want to know your types, the best test I found is this one: http://www.keys2cognition.com/
YOu can compare yourself with prog artists :)
 
Genesis
Peter Gabriel: ENFJ
Tony Banks: INTP
Steve Hackett: INTJ
Phil Collins: ISTP
 
Gentle Giant
Ray Shulman: INTP
Kerry Minnear: INFJ
Garry Green: ISTP
John Weathers: ISTP
Derek Shulman: ENT-
 
Yes
Jon Anderson: INFJ
Rick Wakeman: IN--
Chris Squire: ENTP?
 
Jethro Tull
Ian Anderson: ENFJ
 
Radiohead
Thom Yorke: INFP
 
Solo
Bjork: INFP

I think I was INTJ last time I took it.    Me and Neil, two peas in a pod.

Maybe because he studied architecture and he went on to play in a rock band called Pink Floyd. Totally different jobs, very S for me.

For me what speaks to the N is his work often having kind of "big picture" concepts resulting in albums like Animals, Dark Side, Wall, etc. What would point o S is is apparent obsession with details. This page http://famous101.com/famous-intj-musicians points to INTJ for Waters.

Peter Hammil? I'd say INFP but I assume you can tell me why you would put him INTP. Hugh Banton INFJ? Geddy Lee and Neal Morse ENFJ?

I thought the exact same thing.  Neil's personality is really the only myers-briggs guess I've done for any musician, and that's only because I'm INTJ and I see very many similarities between his personality and mine.

Of course I am not 100% sure, I quite intuitively (that is my N coming through) typed him T as I perceive his lyrics and music as rather harsh and cold at times (which I do mean negatively), pointing towards more a T personality. Hugh Banton comes across as a gentle caring individual, that's why I guessed F. Geddy, maybe ENTJ now that you ask.
