No man, as curious as it seems to be! I can assure you that you can love progressive music without putting to much importance on these bands. I would like to exclude them from my collection but I've got some vinyls that I want to keep just for the cover sometimes ("relayer" by Yes for instance or "point of no return" by Kansas)

Genesis - I've heard "Selling England by the pound" and "Foxtrot" but they didn't grab me.
ELP - I don't know... They just don't seem attractive to me.
Also, I just started to explore the realm of Italian prog.
As for VDGG the four albums of theirs I've got are not original...

I meant Genesis in particular... I agree about Kansas. Gabriel era Genesis are by no means prog pop.

Off hand, I can't think of many 'big' artists I don't own albums by. The one genre that doesn't appeal to me at least based on what I've heard is 'RIO', but Zappa and Beefheart are classed under this genre and I love their work. I don't have anything from the 'indo prog' and 'Zeuhl' sections, for no real reason other than I've not heard them. I do own a Quintessence compilation though....Also, I guess my 'prog metal' section is somewhat under-represented. I actually don't mind that genre as long as the metal doesn't usurp the prog- for example, I disliked Symphony X's 'the Odyssey' but loved 'The Divine Wings Of Tragedy'.

I own no Gong. I always want to get some but whenever I see the rare opportunity to buy one in a store, I never have the money for it. I haven't heard alot of they're stuff but I do know alot about the band and I know about there music somewhat.

Of the majors commonly discussed here it's VDGG and Gentle Giant. Just haven't gone there yet.
