Looking at the sort of garbage you rate highly, I'll bet they're very glad you ignore them!
there is no need for this, it's best to stick to the topic Wink

The little I have heard of Holmes is great although it would be unfair to compare with the works of the others, of which I have heard only glimpses

Going with Rogers here. He had such a big hand in developing that special groove the Earthband fuelled in the 70s.

I maintain that "Neo-prog" is not really a genre in its own right, despite it being listed as such on here. It's just a continuation of symphonic prog by bands that started after the first wave died. Stylistically, there's no difference.

Mike Holmes
 
when I saw IQ perform Subterranea 12 years ago I spent most of the time watching Holmes. One of those guitarists that makes it look easy
 
best moments
Through The Corridors - great fret work
The Magic Roundabout - Dave Gilmour eat your heart out!
The Last Human Gateway (middle section) - version on The Lost Attic is stunning. Never loses sight of the melody

Six of my favourite guitarists from six of my favourite bands - but they rarely get mentioned on here.
 
Pick your favourite.
