I've been digging into the catalog of King Crimson, and I like a lot of what I hear. I bought Court of the Crimson King when I was about 16, but never went any further. Recently, I’ve also been playing the crap out of post 1980 Genesis. I went on a Jethro Tull kick late last year. So, of these, which one is your favorite? I gotta go with Tull. Genesis a close second.

Jethro Tull gets my vote as well, although I do really like early Genesis & ELP, as for King Crimson & Yes I've never been able to get into those bands.

I'm voting for Yes, but Jethro Tull has been closing in recently. I could never get into the others.

Call me crazy, but I thought I mentioned Tull many years ago???....hahahaha. For what it's worth, I don't consider Tull "prog rock". Tull is in a unique genre all in their own if you consider their illustrious output over the years. Tull can be termed as folk rock, alternative rock, top 40, metal, new age, and most likely, an entire host of other genres that I, for one, would most likley not even realize, simply put, because Ian Anderson, the genious behind the music over the last 40 years has continued to baffle me and the fans that he has garnered along the way. Yeah, I'll go with Tull on this one. I have 12 of their albums...and some which contain some reeeeeeeeally great music that most have never heard before...and that tells me something. For what's it's worth...Tull's music was always second rate in terms of "airplay"...but I can tell you this...if ANYONE that is remotely a fan of Tull's sound, they need to scope out the music. Trust me I know!. Best way to put it is this...the stuff you may have heard could be second rate...the music that you haven't heard is first rate! Shit...I've made cds of Tull's greatest hits and I haven't even touched the surface of the mans talent. Yeah...I'll go JT for the top on this one. Thanks Kim

Yeah. The flute band. I like them. ;D One more reply for Trexx... Check out the Broadsword and The Beast album...let me know how the "flute" comes into play and comes across as second rate...that is if you can hear the flute?...AND THEN!!!... When you do hear the flute...you will then hear it's power even though it's overshadowed by the other instruments. Trexx...please do me one one favour...listen to Tulls' Broadsword and The Beast...you won't be disappointed. Thanks Kim

I adore prog music all together for how eclectic & diverse the genre can be!! But out of that list I had to go with Jethro Tull. I love all of Jethro Tull's discography. In my opinion King Crimson isn't to far behind Jethro Tull.
