Well, if you count Magma then you would have to count every Zeuhlish or avant garde band. May as well throw in Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and the Muffins(who to be fair are sometimes considered RIO BUt just as much Canterbury) while you're at it. Actually, I do think Magma played at some of those festivals or something early on so in some ways maybe not too much of a stretch.

I have really a lot of prog to choose from, but an easy one is Camel - Mirage

Aside from most early KC albums, Floyd's Meddle is another prog-fest for me.

"But Seriously", I can "Testify" that I can see "Both Sides" of his appeal as a drummer and a singer. Gosh! Is that the time? "Hello, I Must Be Going." I'm "Going Back" to "Dance into the Light" now and listen to some Peter Gabriel-era Genesis.

Haha I think you got them all in there.

That was just a quickie.
It was relatively easy to include Phil Collins eight album titles in a short paragraph which I've now rewritten in a different order and reposted in my "Write Your Own Album Titles Tribute" blog. The challenge now is to write a tribute using all of Genesis', YES or Pink Floyd's albums, which won't be nearly so easy.

No seriously though, can't forget some of these really good ROI bands I've been getting into lately like Art Zoyd, Univers Zero, Henry Cow, Magma(not technically I guess.. but they count lol).
|
Return on Investment bands? I think you mean RIO (Rock in Opposition). Magma is Zeuhl not RIO. Present and Thinking Plague are two other RIO bands.

Wait a min.. I see Peter Gabriel in there but where's Phil?? No Jacket Required is pretty much mandatory for any CD collection of this size. Anyway, right on Spooky Tooth(you know I like them), Barclay James Harvest, etc.. good stuff here.
|
Phil Collins isn't in the list simply because I don't have any Phil Collins solo albums as I'm not a big fan. The only Genesis album I really like with Phil Collins singing is "A Trick of the Tail". By the way, I forgot to include Rush and Styx in my original prog albums list at the top of the page but they're in there now. I'm listening to "The Wall" by Pink Floyd right now, although I'm not having a "prog out" - I'm just listening to all of my double-CD's all at once. |
What.. you don't love solo Collins? You know what, that's it.. I will NEVER post on here... Sorry that joke's getting old at this point lol. Anyway, The Wall right on. Probably wouldn't be my choice but great album for sure.

I "already" have that music inside of me, that I enjoy tremendously anyway, and I can tell you that on an isolated island, on a sad, quiet day, I can hear the whole album in my head ... and love the heck out of it.
I guess it's like your favorite blanket, or pillow ... it has some properties that one can not exactly describe. |
Right on man.

^^ That's an interesting list of albums. I'm only familiar with Khan's "Space Shanty" album, which I Love, so I'll have to check out the other albums too, starting with "Pre-Flight" by Room, which I'd never heard of before.

I hope you didn't include Jeremy Bender, Benny the Bouncer, the sheriff or Are you ready Eddie on it. |
I don't like elp
But the Sherriff is a good song! |
Out of the ones I mentioned I probably like Are you ready Eddie the best because it doesn't have that old west saloon feel to it like the others do(or what I affectionately refer to as "silly cowboy songs").

Not necessarily. If you prefer to 'prog out' to newer stuff then post that. I just don't know that much newer stuff except Spock's Beard and some Marillion. I'm basically all about ELP, classic Genesis and classic Yes. Oh and Gentle freaking Giant if I want to prog the %$*% out.
