A stacked list but I'm going with VDGG, Camel and Anglagard. Caravan, Hatfield And The North and National Health could have been my 3 picks here instead.

Tai Phong might qualify. Many people only recognize their most popular track Sister Jane, written by Khanh Maï with JJ. Goldman on lead vocals, which, according to some, made its way to the French top singles charts, making the band a defacto one hit wonder. But, as a prog fan I think it is one of their weakest songs and Tai Phong's true strength lies in the longer, Taï Sinh penned prog songs, mostly with him or on the lead vocals.

Really? Their albums are highly rated on here with high ratings. I wanted to add Jordsjo and Karfagen since I think both are really great bands but I don't think either are well known enough in prog circles. Maybe one day.

Dream Theater, Mostly Autumn and Porcupine Tree are the first three that mostly spring to mind, but from the poll I'd say all of them, as neither of my two younger brothers have heard of any of them. Unhappy

Please vote for up to three (but no more than three) options. "Other" can be one option or you can use it for all three of your votes if you want. 

Unlike Porcupine Tree, King Crimson, Dream Theater, Marillion or Tangerine Dream who are known to most big music fans the bands I have selected are mostly unknown to non prog fans imo. Of course there are exceptions but this is how I see it so please no arguments about who is or isn't known to non prog fans. Wink

Unfortunately I could not fit in Arena,The Enid, Mike Oldfield (too well known outside of US anyway), Transatlantic(too many DT fans know about them), Happy the Man, Henry Cow, Focus, Saga or Nektar but of course any of those can be an "other" option for you if you want.
