exactly 5.75% of the music on this site is real prog rock. After that you have the fake prog represented by 80's King Crimson and Peter Gabriel entire solo career plus the AOR crap that no one cares about and the weird stuff that strange human like persons think is important. <runs and hides>

I agree but maybe not Presto. Anything in the 80s before it though.

I actually don't disagree with the 2112 to MP opinion (although is side two of 2112 really prog?) but my personal (subjective) defintion of prog stretches a bit beyond MP.

Silly me, I've just noticed the "real prog rock" in the title. As opposed to false or fake prog rock everywhere, right? TBH I dislike it (to put tit gently) when anyone puts words like "real" or 'true" in front of genres, i.e. "true metal" and 'true prog" and so on. Maybe I'm not getting something here... oh well...

You can’t even agree on the definition of “prog”, which makes it difficult to answer the question. Music is not black and white where every single album can be deemed either prog or not. It’s all a mix of inspirations and talent.
I’m also amused at the topic title, asking for “real prog”. Certainly prog police work. |

I love both bands, though they each have at least one album I can't listen to all the way through. Too bad Trumph's flame went out so early.

The correct answer, if you aren't the Prog Police, are the ones you choose.

That makes those songs a little bit prog, at least to me.

About as prog as Triumph's "Blinding Light Show/Moonchild" (8:43) and "The City" (9:20).

Hi, It's much easier to do, when you have a drummer that can do a heck of a lot more than just keeping time ... they work on making sure they can augment the moments in the music, and that can not be done when the high schoolish drummer can only do the same beat and timing. That's about 50% of all the "progressive" bands, btw, when everything is "progressive" and the drumming is elementary, and sophomoric! |

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!
