Re: Which is the best Non-Pink Floyd Prog Rock Band

Most prog rock these days is bollocks. It was great once but that has turned into Symphonic rock now and is not progressive anymore. Prog rock can be anything, you can take a shit on an album with some drums and a bassline and one could call it ''progressive''.

Re: Which is the best Non-Pink Floyd Prog Rock Band

The three greatest bands ever are Pink Floyd, The Who and Jethro Tull. So I guess that would make Jethro Tull the best option on this poll.

1. Pete Townshend
2. Roger Waters
3. Ian Anderson

Yes.

Crimson, undoubtedly. It's at the top of the list for a reason.

HOLY CRAP, when did we get the ability to view who voted for what??? I thought all of my votes were in confidence unless I chose to disclose!
