 Topic: 25 "R" Lists Acts (this poll is rated R)Posted: September 13 2024 at 10:35 |

Skipping Q for now, will combine it later with some less "popular" for my collection letters.
This time I only included ones in the poll that are included in PA. I did skip some of my favourites for some more popular options but I have been into every band in the list at one time. -------------------------- Here is my longer list. Rachel's Radiohead Ragnarök (Sweden) Rahmann Rascal Reporters Rational Diet Reale Accademia di Musica Red Hot Chili Peppers Red House Painters The Red Masque Regal Worm Los Relámpagos Renaldo and the Loaf Renaissance The Residents Return to Forever (including Chick Corea's Return to Forever album & with Return to Forever) The Revolutionary Army of the Infant Jesus Rhesus O Rhůn Catherine Ribeiro (+ 2 Bis, + Alpes) Terry Riley Steve Roach The Rolling Stones Monika Roscher (Monika Roscher Bigband) Rouge Ciel ruído/mm Ruins Runaway Totem Emma Ruth Rundle Rush The Rutles Terje Rypdal ----------------------- Again, if you appreciate anything in the list, please vote for three in the poll, or more, or less, and please mention those. Additionally, I encourage people to mention what they like that is not in the poll. It's not a contest and the 25 I listed simply are 25 that I have enjoyed. And feel free to vote with limited knowledge. Thanks. And if you are really confident that I should have added something that I did not to the poll, rate me R for rancid. So please mention whatever Proggy other Rs you like, be it Riverside, Rainbow, Royal Hunt, a bit of The Rolling Stones as well as mentioning anything you like in the poll if applicable. Here are the past polls: 28 "P" List Acts & 27 "O" List Acts & 27 "N" List Acts & 25 "M" List Acts & 25 "L" List Acts & 25 "K" List Acts & 25 "I and J" List Acts & 25 "H" List Acts & 29 "G" List Acts & 26 "F" List Acts & 25 "E" List Acts & 26 "D" List Acts & 25 "C" List Acts & 25 "B" List Acts & 25 "A" List Acts By the way, thanks to all for their comments throughout this series. |

Renaissance, Rhun, Riley. I prefer the spin off Universal Totem Orchestra to Runaway Totem I won't choose more than three, but this doesn't mean that i dislike Rush, Roach, Rypdal and the Stones

Had to go for five on this one, Greg:
Renaissance, RTF, Terje Rypdal, Terry Riley, and Rational Diet though I also like Radiohead, Catherine Ribiero, Rascal Reporters, Reale Accademia di Musica, and Regal Worm. I would, personally, have included Riverside, Todd Rundrgren, The Reticent, Returned To The Earth, Hania Rani, RanestRane, Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, Patrice Rushen, Radio Massacre International, The Roches, and maybe even RPWL, Roxy Music and Rain Tree Crow on my own list.

Radiohead & Renaissance. I was tempted to vote just for these two as the next ones are quite a bit behind, but then decided to give the Residents the third vote, even though they are very much hit and miss for me.

Thanks for all of the replies.
A preview of acts that I will be choosing from for the S poll. It is one of the more popular letters in my collection. It is again missing various fairly popular Prog or possibly prog choices like Spock's Beard and Symphony X, but then choosing 25 is an almost ridiculous exercise even just based on personal tastes for the well-listened, and I encourage others to list what they like as well as choosing from my lists. I do favour that which has excited me the most in my recent years, so that narrows it down considerably and I will try to make it more on the Prog side even if not all are in PA. For instance, Sufjan Stevens is a no-brainer for me, and I have been very into St. Vincent over the past year. Ones like Spirogyra, Schulze, Stringtronics and Supersister are perennial favourites for me. And of course my beloved Stereolab, Siouxsie and The Banshees, Swans etc. Buffy Sainte-Marie Salle Gaveau Samla Mammas Manna Santana Konomi Sasaki Saturnia Satwa Karl Heinz Schäfer Lalo Schifrin Klaus Schulze Secret Chiefs 3 The Sea Nymphs Yochk'o Seffer Semiramis Sensations' Fix Willam Sheller Shibusashirazu Shining Hideo Shiraki The Shiver Shub-Niggurath Jane Siberry Sigur Rós Silver Apples A Silver Mt. Zion Simon & Garfunkel Nancy Sinatra Siouxsie and The Banshees The Sisters of Mercy Skeleton Crew Skids Józef Skrzek Slapp Happy Slint Sloche The Smile Patti Smith Tim Smith The Smiths Snakefinger Soft Machine Solaris The Sound Soundgarden Spinal Tap Spirit Spiritualized® Spirogyra Spookfish Sprain Squid St. Vincent Simon Steensland Stereolab Cat Stevens Sufjan Stevens Karlheinz Stockhausen Stormy Six Strawbs Stringtronics Sui Generis Sumo Susanne Sundfřr Supersister Supertramp Swans Sweep the Leg Johnny Sweet Trip David Sylvian So much stupendous music to choose from.
