God, so many! Well, let's start with the obvious ones: King Crimson (favorite!) Emerson, Lake & Palmer Genesis And now for the lesser known ones: Gentle Giant Focus There are probably others, and may other Semi Prog bands that don't fully count (Queen, Asia, The Beatles), so these are my favorite full on Progressive Rock bands!
First off, let me say that I do not consider pink floyd a progressive rock band. If I did, they would be No.2 on my list. 10.Mogwai 09.Hawkwind 08.The Pineapple Thief 07.Nektar 06.Spock's Beard 05.Sigur Ros 04.Riverside 03.Kansas 02.Opeth 01.Porucpine Tree
Based on my knowledge of Prog Rock, I'd go with either Kansas or Jethro Tull as my favorite Prog Rock band. As I have mentioned before I'm just not much into Prog Rock.
I have a lot but I'll only list about a dozen or so of my favorites: Yes Rush Camel VDGG (Van der Graaf Generator) Pink Floyd Genesis Gentle Giant ELP The Flower Kings Kansas Porcupine Tree Jethro Tull
Hi! Ok, let's say I have only 10 choices : - Genesis - Pink Floyd - Marillion - Yes - Steven Wilson - Mike Oldfield - King Crimson - Peter Hammill/Van Der Graaf Generator - Rush - Difficult choice here! It could be Camel, Jethro Tull, Neal Morse/Transatlantic, Magma... I can't decide
