and more Micky Points back to you LOL


sitting on this vote.  But strongly leaning Yes.  Banco sits squarely at #5 in my personal love of the big 5 of Italy.
Much respected, and enjoy parts, but I do love the other biggies much more.

Francesco's passing was a huge loss for progressive rock. As much as I love Yes, this time I am going to go patriotic and vote for Banco. Their early albums are masterpieces, and would have been huge if the band had come from an English-speaking country.

Let's not forget Vittorio Noccenzi......No matter how much I love Wakeman's music, the technique and the heart of Vittorio blows the grumpy old man from the stage.

Guys like Wakeman, Emerson or Banks, are amazing Prog Rock keyboardists, guys like Vittorio or Moraz are real virtuosos who can play or write anything with the same class.

Banco are great, no doubt.
We lost their great front singer last year, RIP as Iván said.
As for vocalists, Banco would win easily.
But the mind blowing Yes compositions... my love for Yes is bigger, so they get my vote.
