 Topic: Greatest Poll Ever- of Greats

Vote & Leave a Comment-
I've complied the ultimate list of Progressive Rock musicians (& others), so please vote for the best in your opinion and explain why.
I'll refrain from voting because every single one floors me with their musical talent

My goodness, what a great poll. I voted Mike Giles because he is my
favorite drummer and I don't think he gets enough love around here.
Shostakovich was tempting though.

I like Giles' drumming, but it's hard really appriciate how good he is because the drum sound on the debut is SH*TTY.

Nothing is perfect. Just roll with it.
I for one think it's nice not to see the same old names again.

Vander is so dedicated to making great music that I have to pick him, which can't be said for some of the others on that list.

I know only some of this musicians, but i really cannot think of anyone better (at the time) than John Mclaughlin, what a god-dammit virtuoso this man is, and playing with Miles Davis isn´t for everyone!

Lemmy!! Of course. I admire him very much.... John Lennon should have been there, though.

John McLaughlin’s musical legacy far surpasses any one on the list. A far superior musician.

Patrick Moraz. His work with Refuugee, Mainhorse and Yes is fantastic.

Lemmy.
Because of his contributions to Hawkwind and founding Motörhead.
And last but not least: He is an intelligent and witty debater with original opinions.
