I like van der graaf generater lots but 25 bands is all that I could add. So them and Camel I had to comprimise ..oh theres many more great prog units I didn`t add if you look hard  ..I know...   pffft 25 bands just isn`t enough to get the results I wanted, considering its prog metal and prog rock ..this poll 

Its allright VDGG is beter then all thos bands together, they are on a total diffrent level of greatness...

some prog metal people would argue symphony x and  redemption are better than dream theater yet they are not on my list  ... The idea is that because Genesis are there van der graph generator are represented in that form of prog in a way ( I see early  Peter Gabrial as a big influence on Peter hamills style ) so I couldn`t  put VDGG before Genesis ..  no way !

Jethro Tull is my favourite band, but much of their stuff, like on this was, stand up and benefit is not prog, so when I choose the greatest prog band I choose Genesis!

I went for Floyd, mostly because nobody else has. Floyd are a good contender, (though not entirely "prog") as they changed over the course of all their "classic" albums, they are accessible and unique, and I would contest that they never released a bad album in the Seventies either, though there were a couple of lesser works. They might compete with Genesis for me.
