Too bad this was moved,it's not going to get the same kind of input. PFM for me.

Hopefully we'll still get enough votes so that it won't make too much of a difference. Besides, I think (at least for a while) people will see the moved threads in the prog polls and then be transfered over here. I suppose we'll see what happens.

Me too, but just a tiny little bit.
 
With my vote it's 8 - 8. The tension mounts... Shocked

I am so tempted to vote, but I don't know PFM, so no.

Doesn't matter that:

  1. I love Italian Symphonic
  2. ELP only mage two or three outstanding albums, a couple of good ones and a lot less than mediocre.
  3. I like the sound and the musicanship of PFM much more.

ELP is one of the most trascendental bands in Prog Rock history, without them the genre would had never been the same, you can love or hate them, but you got to recognize they were something special and unique.

It matters to me because the question is not which is better or more important, it's which do you prefer?  I prefer PFM, though I have great respect for ELP's position in Prog.

close, but ELP edges out PFM due to their brilliant masterwork Tarkus (the song)

the clock is ticking...

and it is 3rd and goal from the one yard line.. will PFM punch in in against ELP.. or will ELP hold frim in the upset...

we go to the booth..

'Micky... what should PFM do to break through the stout defense of .. .just what the hell IS that thing?'

Well Teo... that is an armadillo tank ...

ahhhh  very prog..  I wish DT had one of those... have I shown you my DT wrist**tch with the..

wait Teo.. lets go to the sidelines where our sideline reporter ... the lovely Ms Raffaella ....
Raff!  What are you hearing from the ELP sideline.

Hey Mick... well  it is pretty intense down here... Greg Lake just took a swing at Emerson because he thought he was getting too much face time on the jumbo-tron. Palmer is trying to make peace between them and get them back on the field.

hahahahah Raff.. that is the ELP we know and love.  Let's get back to the game... both sides are coming back on the field.

3rd and goal from the 1. Mussida snaps the ball and......

Hm... I've seen one PFM concert via the internet, which was superb. Much as I love ELP, I'm going to avoid voting. At least. So long as they might win without me...

Haha, I can't wait to see the sequel to this post. Clap

By the way: These polls have been revitalized in this section, but there is a time limit for voting! These two (13 and 14) will commence for roughly a week, so make sure you get in votes before then!

you haven't missed much

Emerson's ego stuffed Mussida on a QB sneak.

however on the play there was a penalty for illegal contact to the face when Di Cioccio kissed Palmer on the check

ELP took the penalty... then we went to commerical break of course...  fittingly... a I-Pod commerical

PFM were pushed back 5 yards. Repeat 3rd down... PFM just a bit farther away from the promised land

ELP just barely. Tarkus is just incredible.

Best of 2006 that I've heard:
PFM-Stati Di Immaginazione
Zenit-Surrender (Best "unknown" album)
Oaksenham - Conquest of Pacific
2007:
Phideaux - Doomsday Afternoon
La Torre Del Alchimista - Neo

ELP wins by a short head for me, but none of these belongs to my favorite groups.

I prefer ELP. This is strange: they are almost instantly considered in the list of giants but last time I checked they haven't got a single album in top 20 of symphonic prog albuns

Goal # 37
The same for me: just for the brillance of Tarkus.....ELP!.......magic! not forgetting the first album, pictures... and Trilogy
 
I am surprised andglad they are leading because they're getting usually crappy comments on this site; so there are still a few ELP lovers left...good world!Thumbs%20Up

^ pleasantly surprised as well... didn't figure Lake was going to break a Pagani arm tackle and run untouched into the endzone and break open a tight contest.  But what do I know... I thought the Patriots were going to win as well....
