Back in August, about 20 or so of us decided that these are the top 5 prog tracks of all time. Which of these bands has the most dedicated fanboys? I mean, which of these songs takes your number one spot?

Agreed. The only Floyd song that can beat Close to the Edge for me. And only by half a molecule.

Tarkus - just - sheer energy and creativity - they went one better with 'Aquatarkus' played live.  Showed their unique improvisational qualities as well...

Echoes ahead of Supper's Ready by a hair.

Supper's Ready is still my No 1 song, with Gates not far behind. All the songs on the list are excellent and 5 star worthy though. :-)

Super's ready with Echoes very close behind. And then Yes Gates and Close. Tarkus is the last one although it's also great song.
