Maybe it is too much to ask of the Admins but I was thinking that an area devoted to bands that influenced Prog or Pre-Prog if you will and another for bands or albums that were influenced by prog but not actually prog.

Poor Admin, unless they've got no real jobs, they'll have their hands full.

Many years ago, 1968-72. progressive rock were those artists who were either slightly or completely disinterested in single sales. The UK bands were Moody Blues 1967>, LZ 1969>, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Yes, Genesis, ELP 1970 and many I can't remember.
Due to the redefinition of Prog Rock, I agree that not one of the above should be included because they either don't exist or they don't fit the criteria.
Oh,sorry I forgot Pink Floyd, 1858> queen Victorias favourite band. (Don' t get offended, poor British sense of humour.

I dont normally say this, but I think Zep should be added. Jethro Tulls first two albums are blues, and there on here. So why not add Zep? THey have some undniably proggy moments, and they need credit.

Because Jethro Tull then went on to release a string of genuine progressive rock albums. Led Zep did not.

Ok, lets cut the nonsense......THERE ARE NO PROGRESSIVE ROCK BANDS.....THERE IS ONLY PROGRESSIVE ROCK MUSIC!!!!!........so lets stop being so picky and elitist and get over our "this is OUR site lets hoard it and covet it" phase....
Add the Led Zeppelin albums which ARE progressive....Add the Queen albums which ARE progressive.....Add the ELO albums which ARE progressive. I've said it once, I'll say it again....if this site was TRULY serious about show casing prog music, then music must override band...period.

Zeppelin blows...there I said it. Now I'm going to duck under something to shield myself from the rotten fruit and heavy objects that are soon to be hurled my way.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

I say put them in. Not everyone on this forum agrees with every band in the archives so put them in. Question for the doctor. Why does Zeppelin blow?
