Let's have a vote for the best one to our taste.
You know that all these bands went on to very much DIFFERENT directions, but here let's CONSIDER ONLY EARLY RELEASES.
And don't forget, if you listen to this kind of music, make sure you do it in mono.

Wow, quite a difficult poll seeing as Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Who, and The Stones are in there but it's gotta be Procol Harum for me. Can't stop listening to them.

It's that much early when they played the kind of music the title tries to suggest. Example, Pink Floyd first two albums.

I love Procol Harum, but early Kinks is just brilliant

Erm, sorry, but this poll doesn't make a great deal of sense to me. No vote.

Well, early for bands like Pink or Procol Harum is completely different from early for The Yardbirds or the Stones.

I can't say that this poll makes sense to me either because it includes the Beatles who, in one way or another, really inspired the others so I'll vote for the Fabs, if that makes any sense either. "Doing the right thing is never superfluous."

The first vote for the Hollies. Their vocal harmonies were sublime and I believe they were the best in the early years.

A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

And no, they weren't all influenced by the Beatles except for the fact that the Beatles were the most popular. The Liverpool sound was not the only one in Britain at the time.

I meant to identify the Beatles. Seemed obvious to me.

If I'm getting this poll right, I prefer early Kinks to early Beatles, so The Kinks get my vote. But The Kinks were influenced by mature Beatles, so really my vote should have gone to The Beatles.
