This poll has 25 E acts with albums that I like, and obviously I am missing various of the biggest names in Prog. To mention some I left off that I have listened to full albums by: Eulenspygel, Eloy, Estradasphere, Esperanto, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Echolyn, Ex-Girl, and for one I have checked out due to its popularity, Edison's Children.... But I opted to go with my 25 above. Feel free to mention and discuss any not in my poll, but I would ask that people try comment on any in my list if they know any of them. One can vote for three acts, or more or less. Feel free to vote with limited familiarity and don't feel shy about saying what you like that is not on the list and what on the list does not appeal to you. While it does not hurt my feelings if you think my choices suck, it is still appreciated that one is considerate of artists (both living and dead) in how one expresses things.

In a way it doesn't much matter much to me what I put up for E, I am interested in hearing about what others like for E. It's nice if some of those we share in common, but not necessary. ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Duos for fave acts |

Egg, Elds Mark, and ELO. What a curious selection this is. Farms, rhinoceroses, and Lense-Thirring precessions are in the forecast today.

Thanks all. While I still find that polls tend to gain more responses of the kind I like from more varied people than, say, top ten lists, I do prefer these where people are encouraged to vote for and mention what they like on the list, if they do like anything, but also list their applicable favourites. I am interested in people personal lists and then I am less likely to feel guilty/bad about what I leave off the list. :) ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Duos for fave acts |

Eloy is not a particular favourite band of mine despite having enjoyed some of its albums. I mentioned Eloy in the first post, which I guess you remember I like for Inside and Floating especially (I almost did add it). I wanted to cover 25 others more at the time and I figured that Eloy would get mentions whether I added it or not, so I might as well mention various lesser-known ones. I encourage people to mention what they like regardless of what's in the list. I don't do these as contests and am more interested in the posts than just the poll. EDIT: Of course others use "other" in the poll but I don't like to and would prefer to fill up the options and anyone can mention any of their favourites off the list. I think I've always encouraged that even if I have asked people to comment on what they know and like from my list, if any are applicable. I like it when people think out of just the "poll" box, flexibly and creatively. ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Duos for fave acts |

Electric Light Orchestra & Embryo + Eskaton gets the third vote But I also considered: East of Eden, Egg, Elephant9 and Extradition -for that last spot.

I had a bit of an ELO binge recently with all albums up to and inc Disco-Very. I like them all. They are one of those 'nostalgia' bands , you remember them being played on the radio all the time. Classic songs. Even Last Train To London is so much fun! I also like Elephant 9 a lot and can thank PA for bringing them to my attention. For me the Psychedelic Backfire albums are their absolute peak but the recent Mythical River and Arrival Of The New Elders albums are also well worth checking out. Always a reliable band.
