Hi,
 
I'm not sure that people have given a fair listen to IF in order to vote on this properly ... for musicianship and compositional design, I would vote for IF every day ... for a couple of hits on the radio and one excellent album, it's hard to not think BST as a good band ... but they were not as well defined as IF was.
 
Two other bands of similar design, also very good in my book ... were Ides of March and the Canadian band Lighthouse. Both had a hit in radio, but Ides of March's first album is magnificent and quite progressive ... except  that horns are not progressive ... keyboards are! ... so GreenEyedLady will have to get it instead, I think! ... shucks ... that's SugarLoaf! ... bet these guys never even heard Mason Profit either!
 
So, let create your own poll with this two bands. To be honest, I don´t know them.
A Elbereth Gilthoniel
silivren penna míriel
o menel aglar elenath!
Na-chaered palan-díriel
o galadhremmin ennorath,
Fanuilos, le linnathon
nef aear, sí nef aearon!

Mason Proffit????  Not prog - not even close
 
Sugarloaf......well.....some prog sounding tunes on their first 2 LP's.  Not sure about what they did after that.
