From this list I'll have too choose marillion, But actualy my favourite band is Arena. All albums are unparalleled in their genre, the ultimate in Neo-prog. with hints of progmetal. Don't know Premiata Forneria Marconi ( P.F.M. ), sounds like an itallian pasta dish (I.P.D.) who are they and why did you add them to the list?
BTW. Welcome to the immaculate world of progarchives, watch out for the microbes, for they can get under your skin before you know it. ------------- I'm always almost unlucky _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Id5ZcnjXSZaSMFMC Id5LM2q2jfqz3YxT |

I accidently voted for Genesis, but meant Pink Floyd. I never knew it could happen but I voted for both. ------------- "Mister Fripp, your music is quite different than everything else out there. In one word, how would you describe it?" "Progressive.... yeah, that's it..." |

Arghhhhhhhhhh: Iwas adding other bands while I clicked by mistake on enter.... Sorry!!! PFM is an italian band, same vintage of King Crimson and Van der Graf Generator: highly appreciated in seventies. You can listen to Live in Japan 2002: is a very good live act |

ok ok: I did'nt forget, just had a tachnical problem..... let's do this way: everyone add a band that is missing in the list and let's do a new poll with multiple choice, because everybody love more than just one band. Fair enough? For Sure are missing: RUSH Jethro TULL PENDRAGON

| Tough call, but I chose King Crimson because they're about the only first generation prog band to release genuinely progressive material in every single decade since the 60s. |

I love the fact that Rush isn't on this list. now if we tossed Yes off the list , it would be a perfect poll

There can only be one and Yes is the answer as Raymon said; no other has a collection of major classic albums as this, the greatest rock band ever.I'm beginning to se where this clown problem has stemmed from.But to reiterate Yes rules

Uhh, Fragile... this thread isn't called "best prog bands"... this thread is called "prog bands you like the best"... the obivious word being "you"... In that light, it makes no difference how many albums in the catalog, how long they've been around.. or how good they play...all that matters is that: ELP is the greatest band ever....!!! This is ELP at Madison Square Garden, 31 years ago today... with Greg singing "Silent Night" with a gospel choir and fake snow falling.... still gives me chills just thinking about it !!!
------------- THIS IS ELP
