Fripp ------------- And I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying? There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime. I never said I was frightened of dying. |

I would say Robert Fripp, because it's one of the founders of prog, and he's still doing interesting stuff. Hammill and Latimer are both tied in second place. ------------- I'm a Man-Owl-Fish. Creator-Observer-Muse. |

Welcome to the Church of Fripp........ For me, Steve Hackett is as uncompromising as Fripp and is more encompasssing of a multitude of styles and tonal variations...... Fripp sounds like ..................well...........Fripp. ------------- The moon is made by some lame cooper and you can see the idiot has no idea about moons at all - Nikolay Gogol |

None of the above I believe Kerry Livgren is way underated so are kansas ... he is my choice .. disapointing no members from kansas were not mentioned on the list makes me question the validity of the question in the first place ?

I wouldn't have voted for any of thembecause I'm with Hackett and Gabriel, but it's unfair, rarely a band has four monsters as Livegren, Steinhardt, Walsh and Ehart (My N° 1 drummer). And very rarely a group of virtuuoso players with enough talent to do a successful solo career do such a great band work. They should at least be mentioned. Iván -------------

I was close to saying that Fripp was the guy... but I read an interview he did once and he stated King Crimson are not progressive rock .. remember these are Fripps words not mine .. Sadly some artists don`t like being called progressive ... Fripp is one of them ...that said Fripp can`t be the guy
