Yes should surely win, I'd have thought? Or are all the Yes fans tired of voting?
Well, I'm with King Crimson, and if things go on like this, this poll turns out to be more interesting that I'd have expected.

Very hard choice, since these are three of my top bands. I like them very much, for very different reasons, each having their own special sound and distinctive musical legacy. I will go with Tull, mainly for my own personal reasons, and not to say that YES and KING CRIMSON are less.

Went with Tull, just a hair ahead of Yes.

How is Tull beating Yes? I suspect Yes and Crimson are splitting the vote, while the folkheads all go Tull LOL

Couldn't have worded it any better myself: TULL > YES > KC...

Ming Fingsome

...and yes Nickelback is a crime against patterned sound. I'd rather listen to ABBA's Fernando on repeat (yikes).

it's pretty even between Tull and Yes for me
based on the prime years

but the I like the later Tull  much more than the later Yes

so Tull gets my vote
Prog On!

I prefer Silver Side Up to any King Crimson album.

I guess it'd be terribly uninteresting if we all went about our business listening to the same stuff.

Jethro Tull by acres (wild)

In fact, I never understood that either.
I just thought that it would work well as a reference here for some reason.
