my top 10
I got some favorites I listen to quite frequently, but there is so much stuff I like and so much I haven't heard, this list should be considered incomplete/not-to-date. It also reflects some of the prog I have been recently listening to.
In no particular order:
1. Transatlantic - "All of the Above"
2. Yes - "The Gates of Delerium"
3. Genesis - "One for the Vine"
4. Genesis - "Supper's Ready"
5 Genesis - "Firth of Fifth"
6. Yes - "Starship Trooper"
7. Emerson, Lake, and Palmer - "Trilogy"
8. Rush - "Cygnus X-1 (Books I & II)"
9. Spock's Beard - "The Light"
10. Procol Harum - "Repent Walpurgis"
Damn. That's really incomplete. Better make it a top 20.
11. Pink Floyd - "Dogs"
12. Pink Floyd - "Saucerful of Secrets"
13. ELP - "Tank"
14. Yes - "Siberian Khatru"
15. Rush - "The Fountain of Lamneth"
16. Transatlantic - "My New World"
17. ELP - "Karn Evil 9"
18. Wishbone Ash - "Warrior"
19. Klaus Schulze - "Searching"
20. The Damned - "Curtain Call" (yeah, they're really a punk/goth band, but if you've ever heard this tune, it proves what I
say about some bands having a few songs that are progressive).
Is it just me, or is this list a little too mainstream? Anyways, I love the long ones, too. Can't get enough of 'em. 100 bonus points to whoever can name the shortest song on this list.
