I was SHOCKED to see on VH1 a video for Gentle Giant's 'Thank You' off of "Giant For A Day". Not exactly the greatest song to see a video of when it comes to Gentle Giant, but who knew there was a video and one that's not a concert video. The video shows a boardwalk somewhere in England I presume, people walking about, then it cuts to the guys in a circle playing their instruments as Ray Shulman sings the song. Like I said, not the greatest song they ever did, but it was cool to see the guys playing. Does anyone know of any other obscure Gentle Giant video's or any other obscure video's by prog bands other than the usual Yes and Rush videoes from the 80's?

I have a great video of Gabriel-era Genesis doing the 'Supper's Ready'. Granted, it's a concert video, but it was a GENESIS concert - meaning Peter donned a different costume for the appropriate part of the song, etc. Good stuff.

I HAVE SEEN VIDEOS ON VH1 OF  RUSH, GENESIS ( COLLINS ERA), GABRIEL SOLO, EVEN DREAM THEATER, THE PROG VIDEOS ARE NOT GOOD... ONLY GABRIELīS ARE VERY CREATIVES...

Marillion did some nice video's.

Garden Party was fun, Assassin was typical eighties, Kayleigh was nice too.

I never watched MTV, or television, so I know very little video's. Only the Queen video's I can remember all of them, these where the best, but not really prog I guess.
