A brief list of some bands that I consider "prog dinosaurs"... maybe is not the right definition but they are bands with lots of albums, history, loved and hated by millions -or at least thousands- (just go to the reviews of some of their albums)... and with totally different styles when the made their debut albums... Maybe "prog legends" is the appropiate definiton but... who cares!
So, which is your favourite?
Best regards...

Good poll, and difficult to choose once again.
For me:
1. Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Emerson, Lake & Palmer
2. Yes - Yes
3. King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson king
Three of the most amazing debut albums ever made.

Probably KC takes the cake here.
PFM had releasess before Storia Di Un Minuto, but under different name.Judging from the PA database.

Gee, wouldn't you know it, ITCOTCK is leading. But I think I'll go with ELP's debut - so much energy. Wonderful stuff, methinks. BTW, never heard of Le Orme. Is it Italian Prog? |

| ELP. Need I comment? |

Yep... Italian Prog and one of the best bands... ------------- ... E N E L B U N K E R... |

Of those, I'd go with a tie between Storia and ITCHYCOCK. I voted for Storia though, since it has less votes. Soft Machine, Caravan and Amon Duul II have some of my other favorite '60s/early '70s debut albums.

Unfortunately, Rush is at a disadvantage in a poll like this because their first album was one of your classic "rocker" LPs. As such, I would have been surprised to see it come out on top in a 'prog poll". I.e. that's the only reason why they're losing ....  |

Torn between ELP & ITCOTCK ... so I will go with ELP to give some balance  ------------- "Without prog, life would be a mistake." ...with apologies to Friedrich Nietzsche |

I think In the Court may be the best debut album of all time (up there with De-loused )-------------  |

I voted for Yes (always loved that debut), but it's close between that one and Floyd's effort, and Rush's effort too. All three are fine debuts.

king crimson, one of the best albums of all time, and without a doubt the best debut album by any band ------------- you and whose army? |

ITCOTCK followed by Camel and ELP.

Other: Amon Duul II - Phalus Dei I voted for PFM, though. |

I would have voted for "Phallus Dei" too or the self-titled first album of Magma.

My favourite is ITCOTKC. The debuts by for instance Yes, Genesis, Camel, Pink Floyd, Rush give me the idea that those bands still had to find out what they were best at musically. KC's debut was "a hole in one"! ------------- I'm running still, I shall until, one day I hope that I'll arrive |

Zappa, Jethro Tull, Camel, ELP, King Crimson & Gentle Giant's debut albums are all good. But i voted Jethro Tull, since i just love "Serenade for a Cuckoo", "My Sunday Feeling" & "A Song for Jeffrey". |
