	My vote is on the assumption that this is for these groups' body of work in the 70s, not to include later releases. 1. Camel 2. King Crimson 3.Genesis 4. Jethro Tull 5. Pink Floyd 6. Yes 7. Gentle Giant 8. ELP 9. Van der Graaf Generator 10. Rush The top 4 spots are virtually interchangeable for me. Love them all; when I'm listening to any one of them, I feel at that moment as though that group is my favorite. All I have to do is put on one of the others, though, and then THAT group is my favorite. The only one of the 10 here I'm not too keen on is Rush, just not into the high vocals. (I don't mind Jon Anderson on the early Yes albums, but can't take much of his singing anymore either).

	1)Jethro Tull-1970-1974 and 1977-1980. LITP is a very important cd full of gems from 1968-1971 2)Camel-Love the debut album and 1976-1981 albums 3)Gentle Giant-strong for most of the 70s 4)Genesis-I prefer 1976-1981 over the slightly weird, fairy Gabriel era. But I love foxtrot 5)Yes- Love the 1970-1974 era although I'd rather shorter songs than longer experimental ones 6)Van der graaf- H to He, Godbluff, World record, Quiet zone 7)Caravan-Grey and pink, The album, Cunning stunts, Blind dog 8)Frank Zappa-from 1972 onwards 9)King Crimson-only really lasted for half the decade, with many lineup changes 10)Emerson Lake and Palmer-were cool until about 1973

	Pink Floyd is easily my #1 Then Yes, Genesis, Van der Graaf Generator, Jethro Tull, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, Camel, Rush, ELP Something like that. Also of note is that I really like no more than 3 albums by each of these bands (sans Floyd), some less.
