Four people walk into a bar each carrying briefcases containing one million dollars worth of your favourite currency. None of them have ever heard Prog Rock before:

The first says to you: I'll give you my briefcase if you can name for me one artist that absolutely typifies Prog Rock.

The second says to you: I'll give you my briefcase if you can name for me one album that absolutely typifies Prog Rock.

The third says to you: I'll give you my briefcase if you can name for me one song that absolutely typifies Prog Rock.

The Fourth says to you: I'll give you my briefcase if you can name for me the first Prog Rock song ever.

What would you say to each person?

And what's the catch?

To #1 I'd say - Yes
To #2 I'd say - Nursery Cryme
To #3 I'd say - The Gates Of Delerium
To #4 I'd say - A Day In The Life

But before I said any of the above, I'd say to all of them......

Keep your briefcases, I'll answer your questions only if you give me the contents!

Artist - Spocks Beard (Not my favourite, but I reckon that prog is all they do)

Album - Close to the edge

Song - Wish you were here

1st prog rock song - In held twas in I, Procol Harum

Catch? - Don't know who owns the brief cases with the money in, but it sure ain't these guys. The brief cases they're offering are still in the car with a couple of bricks in each! LOL

Song : Minstrel in the Gallery

1st Song : the Byrds "8 Miles High"

The catch is not as good as the chase.
