I would argue Aaron Novick is by far the most prolific and ingenious poist-rock musician to date. In addition, he helped invent the atomic bomb, which took sonic loudness to innovative new levels.
Also, Christian Vander because he isn't the intended subject of every thread ever. WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS THREAD ISN'T ABOUT MAGMA! |

I think the musicians in Jethro Tull are generally overlooked, but all made important contributions to an amazing band. I can't even remember all of their names like I can for most of the other major prog bands.

I agree with everything you have to say. Especially for Area's keyboardist, he's absolutely crazy! And Fred Frith is kinda underrated, but most of HC is underrated anyway. |

 Excellent! Such an amazing keyboardist(right?) from an amazing overlooked jazz fusion group.

Aaron Novick stole a number of things from Jake Reid, including but not limited to: -The Poist-Rock sound -The atomic bomb -Loudness -The line "What do you mean this thread isn't about Magma" -Posting -Existing -Knowing things -Liking Magma -Having good musical taste Reid is still superior in every single catagory. |

Gustavo Bazterrica, the guitarist from La Máquina de Hacer Pájaros. Since this is a rather under-appreciated phase in Charly García's career, it's easy to see why the band's guitarist doesn't really get much recognition.

The first name that sprang to mind when I saw this....John Paul Jones....always overshadowed by his bandmates but a fantastic musician and surely the best pre-Jaco bassist. |

Roman Bunka of Embryo, Aera and solo albums; he also played on several progressive radio plays, like for example "Goldberg - Ein Dutzend Täuschungen" by Maria Volk, an album that also featured (among others) Holger Czukay of Can and Robert Fripp. fantastic guitar and oud player, but hardly anyone knows him.
Friede and I suggested "progressive radio plays" as a new category once; F. M. Einheit of the Einstürzende Neubauten did a few of them too. an excerpt pf an example for a prog radio play ("Eschen Junge Zwo", also by Maria Volk) can be heard here; the full play is an hour long: http://www.podcast.de/player/player/action/list/listId/10266/type/channel/showId/737495/ it helps if you understand German, but I think you can figure out what a "prog radio play" is Edited by BaldJean - July 11 2008 at 22:58 |

The resurrected Wakeman Vs Greenslade Poll is a reminder of an under-appreciated musician.
Guess which one i'm referring to.

Savatage is okay. But TSO is incredible, I like Skolnick better than Caffery though. Caffery is more under-appreciated though because nobody really knows who he is. Oliva is just kinda there. |

Daniel Denis of Univers Zero and Present!
He's a fantastic musician, both as a drummer and songwriter, but he's awfully overlooked. His drumming is amazing, and unique. Listen to UZ's "Dense" and judge by yourself, one of my most preferred drummers, no doubt.
