25 "W" List Acts

The Who. They were my favourite band growing up but that changed when I discovered prog rock.

WLUD

^ I am glad you asked because an impetus for this series, and a reason why I did not want it just to focus on my choices but instead I decided to ask people to vote for and mention what they like off my list (if applicable) and to mention what their favourites are (to each his or her own tastes and knowledge), is because I wanted to further demonstrate (as if just looking at W for Prog Archives is not enough) how very many choices there are, especially depending on taste and experience. This grew out of a specific comment in another poll I had just read where someone mentioned expecting some band or album in the poll. And that person said something like there are only 25 choices available, why would you expect that? There is so much depth and breadth to great music depending on taste that it surprised me sometimes when people seem to expect certain music and sometimes even seem to get upset when it's not there. A big part of what I want in music forum is about trying to get to understand each others music tastes better, gaining some exposure to the music whether we like it or not, coming to appreciate our differences, and coming together as a community despite our differences. I'm kind of idealistic. I could express this "stream" so much better but my son is waiting for his pancakes -- lol.

Robert Wyatt, Wipers, and Wire.

The Who

would've voted for Wobbler, but they are not on the list....so I guess Robert Wyatt and Weather Report.
