New_World_Man Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) For me they were: YesKing CrimsonGenesis I got into Rush and Pink Floyd just a little bit later but didn't know of their prog connection until later. This was in the mid eighties or so. Edited July 8, 2016 by New_World_Man 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Permanent-Rush Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Rush,Yes, and Deep Purple. The only other 2 Prog bands I like besides these 3 are Queensryche and Pink Floyd, but I got into them later. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YYZumbi Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Rush was the first prog rock band I discovered. And then I found Marillion..and.... King Crimson. And then from there, I just discovered more and more prog rock. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I can't remember when I first understood the term "prog" ( .. as if I even do now ) Kansas (Leftoverture) was my first band, and it wasn't until Rush a few years later (P Waves) that I first heard the term "progressive rock." Genesis (Three Sides Live) soon followed. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other guy killed Marillion. I have seen Fish live 3 times, last time he played whole Misplaced Childhood. And he is still awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
