Seems that within a month we've had a flood of Iron Maiden and Santana reviews. In your opinion, who deserves to be here?
E ps. This isn't a compare/contrast poll; so, please no, "these bands have nothing in common and a comparison is pointless" -------------

Santana. My only observation is that Iron Maiden is prog-related and the supposed controversy lies within its actually progressiveness, while Santana is under Jazz Rock (a defined sub-genre of Prog Rock, though flourescent itself), being acknowledged sufficiently aS a prog/progressive/whatever character. -------------

| In my opinion, Santana deserves his place in the Jazzrock category while Iron Maiden has nothing to do here. |

Well, I haven't listened to them since I was a kid (Powerslave was the last album I bought), but there were progressive moments in their music. Especially on Piece Of Mind (I defy you to listen to "Where Eagles Dare" and not find it to be progressive). If a band like Death is on here, then Iron Maiden deserves to be here. E -------------

I like Iron Maiden better than Santana, but i have to admit that santana is way much prog than the maidens.

I just find Maiden to be as progressive (if not more) than Death. Then again, I've heard very little of Death. E -------------

On one hand, Iron Maiden have progressive influences. On the other hand, Santana experimented a lot of stuff in his career. This makes the choice really hard but I think Iron Maiden is the one who deserves to be here. ------------- I want to be an astronaut |

| I have nothing against having Santana in Jazz Rock/Fusion. I have nothing against having Iron Maiden in Prog Related either, but I have very much against having the Prog Related category on this site (get rid of it!), so I voted Santana. |

Both equally.
That's why I didn't vote.  ------------- What's gonna come out of my mouth is gonna come out of my soul."Skip Prokop" |

Love both, but Maiden is a heavy metal group. santana is latin Jazz (nowadays pop, but it doesn't count) and can be put in the jazz/fusion box without much noise. ------------- Bach, Ma, Bros, Déia, Dante. |

Neither one is prog. But Maiden should be on here just because they kick 20 times more ass.

Santana is far superior to Iron Maiden in too many ways to mention. That should boil some blood. SANTANA!! -------------

Santana! I really don't like Maiden at all, or even understand what makes them prog-related. ------------- "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"- Evelyn Beatrice Hall |
