I have to agree with Suite for the Everyman. At nearly 50 mins, Mei gets to be tedious.

Re: Survival bag
 

Mei gets tedious way before the 50 minute mark. But Pink Floyd - Echoes tops that, as it gets tedious before it even gets started! The most overrated prog piece ever. (No offence) I'm with Vax on Atom Heart Mother...

Karn Evil 9 (live at least) features one of Greg Lake's best leads, before the break into "welcome back my friends"

I think Gazric's point was one song for EACH band (yikes!), so let's hear some suggestions from lesser known bands.

Djam Karet - The Sky Opens Twice - contains the ripping intro, then segues (admittedly not so gracefully) into the more ambient side of their music

Re: Survival bag
 

Crucible - An Imp's Tale:imp:
Dixie Dregs - Free Fall
Kansas - Journey from Mariabonn
Magenta - White Witch
Roxy Music - Avalon
Renaissance - Ashes Are Burning (Live)
Can - Future Days
Bill Bruford - If You Can't Stand The Heat
Flash - Small Beginning
The Mahavishnu Orchestra - One Word

Okay, that should stir up enought trouble for now. :angel: :rofl:

Re: Survival bag
 

You damn right it did:boxing: :rofl:

Crucible - they only put out two records! :)
Dregs - I'm Freaking Out, or Hereafter
Kansas - not a bad choice....
Magenta - Gluttony, but Witch is prob better

Focus - Hamburger Concerto
(I like Peter's Brick choice)

and

Greg Howard - Water on the Moon:haha:

Re: Survival bag
 

I don't believe it matters how many records they put out. If I may quote the original premise of this thread "...one representational track from every progressive band that has ever put finger to mellotron or guitar...." :hrm:

Good Focus Cut!
And equally good Dregs cuts as well.

:D

Re: Survival bag
 

And if I may quote Dale.......

I see your point, touche....

Re: Survival bag
 

Re: Survival bag
 

nice one, exactly why i posted this thread...80% of the cuts, i don't know, but looks like the basis of a new progressive civilisation.....somewhere:hrm:

Re: Survival bag
 

Procal Harum - Conquistator (the live full orchestral version)
Tempano - Atabal-Yemal
Transatlantic - My New World
Traffic - The Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys
Joe Satriani - Surfing with the Alien
Shadowfax - Angel's Flight
Starcastle - Lady Of The Lake

There's a few more for the trip..:alien:

Re: Survival bag
 

Okay, Jon Anderson will be represented several times - Yes, ABWH, & work with Vangelis.

However, he has to have a solo effort as well. That has to be:

Olias of Sunhillow
But which cut? :???:

Moon Ra/ Chord / Song of Sea
or
QoQuaQ En Transic / Naon / Transic To
or
Ocean Song / Meeting

I'd have to sneak the whole thing on myself. :rulez: But alas, someone must choose.

Re: Survival bag

PFM - L' Isola di Niente
Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso - Canto Nomade Per un Prigioniero Politico
Todd Rundgren - Future
Can - Bel Air
Hawkwind - Spirit of the Age
