Your favorite prog rock music? ?

Where does progressive stop and alternative begin? T Rex, Tommy Bolin, Love & Rockets?

No one mentioned Santana yet...or Roxy music.. or 10cc ....but I'd include them in prog rock IMHO...although may be I am stretching the boundaries. For me Art rock is part of prog rock. I would not count the Cars as prog rock.....but then again....how do you draw the line?

I have to say it again....great thread!

then...Uriah Heep, Demons & Wizards, you guys nailed everything else nicely. I can still listen to the 1st ELP disc today unlike much of the stuff already mentioned including the Heep.

I would not include 10CC, T Rex, Tommy Bolin, Roxy Music, or Santana. Where do you draw the line? Interesting question but if you take any of the agreed upon progressive bands i.e. King Crimson, ELP, Yes, Genesis (with Gabriel) and compare any of the work to "Bang a Gong", "Black Magic Woman", "Love is the Drug", or "The Things We Do For Love", that's where I draw the line.

IMHO
