Re: Were the Tubes prog?
There's a brief but fast and hot 5/8 instrumental section in "Space Babies" on their first album that doesn't fit any category other than prog. You can also say a number of other songs--such as "Up From the Deep" and "Telecide" and "Getoverture" from Remote Control, with their constant changes (though not odd 5- or 7-beat timesigs)--edge close enough to prog to warrant consideration. I saw the Tubes twice. Fun shows.
