Thanks for that post on prog. I enjoyed it and I wish more people here would really get into what they think with longer posts about music.
Now for some comments which I hope will not offend anyone here.
As I said before it's always has seemed to be be about the 'big 6 of prog' on prog web...
Did you watch the video above....you might find it.....interesting.
If and when Jethro Tull and Iron Maiden get in....I might feel differently.....maybe.

The first Floyd I actually owned was Meddle...my college room mate and I would 'smoke' and listen to it in 1971. We went back and discovered Ummagumma ,Atom Heart Mother, and Piper and Saucerful.
I have played Meddle and Dark Side the most, but I think Wish is their best overall as a listening...
Decided to post one of my 'favorite tracks' from the 'big four' of prog ......
Have A Cigar (1975)
21st Century Schizoid Man (1969)
Watcher of the Skies (1972)
Starship TRooper (1971)
Very good album.....3.5 stars just for I Can See For Miles, but one can hear the melodies and structure that leads into Tommy.
If you are a Who fan or a rock fan this needs to be in your collection.

Speaking on Floyd......I play Meddle more than any other lp by them....probably due to my college days with it. I also like the earlier psych ones as well.
I think Dark Side and Wish You Were Here are their best lps....always thought THe Wall would have been a better single lp. There are too...
Missed this thread somehow but I went with King Crimson...In The COurt Of the CRimson King....an early one and since that time my favorite.
I have all the lps on the list and like them all but many think the first KC lp might have started the prog album area in earnest even though there were...
2. Meadows (1973)
Can't help but feel uncertain, knowing which way to turn
They want to raise the curtain and you're holdin' the words to learn
I'm out here in the meadow, part of an old stone wall
Stand here because you said so, waitin' around to fall
I'm not a fan of metal bands, for the most part, so I searched out worst metal bands and these guys were on top of a few lists,,,,,enjoy ;)
