The first two KC albums (without TSB) were definitely prog rock, but the KC album (also without TSB) that I have listed as my #1 prog rock album of all time, LTIA, is definitely NOT prog rock!!!!

Originally posted by Beef Oven! View PostProg rock isn't about progressing to, it's about having progressed from. As a member of the younger generation in this forum, I'm probably better place to offer an opinion with fresh eyes and ears
Your ears have been numbed by lousy punk music!

Great thread for someone who knows nxt to nothing about it.
But where, amongst all these lists, should I go next, as someone who loves Yes and knew the Peter Gabriel Genesis, and King Crimson's Court of the Crimson King, and grew out of ELP years ago? (Already ordered Larks Tongue in Aspic)
Bear in mind that I tend to listen to this music in the car, so it shouldn't make me go too fast...

Crikey, that's a tough question and there's no right answer!
I'd suggest Renaissance. Ashes Are Burning, or Turn Of The Cards or Scheherazade.
