Firstly, under Jazz/Rock Fusion or Prog Folk, We need to add Joni Mitchell to our website. Further, based on “Songs from the Big Chair” and “Goodbye Yellowbrick Road,” Tears for Fears and Elton John are “prog related.”

mostly referring to bands/artists not listed as any sort of prog/prog related genre or subgenre.

In this context, I lean towards things such as Bad Brains (I Against I, Quickness). Tons of odd meters and angular chord changes. I love it.
