I'll second that.

Strangers passing in the street by chance two separate glances meet and I am you and what I see is me. And do I take you by the hand and lead you through the land and help me understand the best I can

Still voting for Britain of course. Even if we leave out the prog, and focus on rock, Britain stands out for me.

 

I agree

Countries that contributed the most to the development of progressive music, IMHO:

  1. Britain
  2. Germany
  3. U.S.
  4. Italy

My personal taste though:

  1. Britain
  2. Italy
  3. Netherlands

Sorry but my vote goes to Magna Britannia, we do/done the best prog becuase like heavy rock and heavy metal we invented it! I must say though that the USA comes a very close second as they do do the better prog-metal bands (with the exception of Threshold who will always top my prog-metal poll simply becuase they are English!).

But we cannot forget the Netherlands, and the scandanvian nations when ti comes to prog-rock an prog-metal as well.

Prog is music for the mind
