with some very notable exceptions, I have had trouble with neo prog, especially with some of its bigger names, of which IQ is one.  Procol was my gateway group to prog and although I can't say they are one of my top 20 anymore, there are still some tracks that make me remember why they drew me in.  So they easily get my vote

But let me put it this way.
IQ is only Europa League
Procol Harum is Champions League 
LOL

 The Champions league does not include Burnley to the best of my knowledge 

Quite rightly so, to quote a Procol song Wink

As a lover of Neo, I went with IQ on this one.  Procol have a few really good songs, but otherwise I am not that familiar with them.  Similar to Traffic and even the Moody Blues, I really consider them as more of a classic rock band than a prog band.

That one I have heard, although admittedly, I heard the Transatlantic version first.

Shoot, this is pretty close.  I'm plesently surprised.  Now if only they can pull out four more votes.
