And Yes........you say 3 but these all at the same time period

 

 

Mick

 

Three was just a general guideline. You can extend it to four or five or whatever.

King Crimson

Yes

 

Is there a particular incarnation of Crimson you enjoy more than others?

 

The Larks outfit is one of my favorite bands ever.

Yes, the Larks outfit is my favorite, too!

Yes. Yes. Yes.

 

That's it unless you count mid-70's Rush, or post-Barrett Floyd, or post-Gabriel Genesis.

Rush, Jethro Tull, and Pink Floyd...all while I was a very young girl (one thing my father had going for him was a great record collection). My introduction to Yes would've been around the same time, but their music was probably not quite as prevalent around the house.

Rush

Pink Floyd

Genesis

 

In that order, I think. Unless we consider Tool prog, because I liked them before I got into Genesis. I guess I do consider Tool prog, but I can't bring myself to replace Genesis with Tool, sorry. :LOL:

Strait prog? Rush, Yes...and maybe Floyd? I want to say Genesis since no prog band has struck me so much since I first discovered prog, but I only just got into them, so prob Floyd.

Interesting. Lot's of great responses. I was expecting to see some more modern bands mentioned such as maybe Opeth, Dream Theater, Porcupine Tree, Mars Volta or Anathema but I'm glad it's been mostly the seventies bands. I suppose even most of you younger folks got into prog mostly through the older bands.
