Most Moody Blues, all Procal Harem, and most APP and a few from Fairport Convention ------------- This message was brought to you by a proud supporter of the Deep State. |

| Interesting. IQ's "Nomzamo" sounds like a borderline case to me |

I'd say everything in the Crossover Prog section, including the Alan Parsons Project, the Moody Blues, Procol Harum & Supertramp, amongst many others.

^ more like prog related. crossover prog is still a prog subgenre.

I was intending the "what would you say" form of the question to require a personal feel about music you hesitate to call prog. I, for example, feel that ambiguity with "Aladdin Sane". Not that I can't read the label on it, just feel it. |

Regardng the OP's point above.......I don't consider many of the bands listed here on proto prog and prog related as prog.....but I suppose that's why those categories are color coded differently on the banner..? ------------- One does nothing yet nothing is left undone. Haquin |

Yes it is, but at the risk of being called Captain Obvious again, Crossover Prog is quite literally a crossover between Prog-Rock and Pop/Rock, just like those four bands I mentioned in the Crossover Prog section of ProgArchives.
