    The best prog band ever. And the most underrated.

    if anyone asks the definition of "tight"..this band would be the definition. Like a loose thread on a $5000.00 suit, one line out of place would be noticeable and detract from the silky continuity. Saw them open up for YES a couple of times in the late 70's, what a great showcase of talent. Imagine a GG encore, followed by Stravinsky fire-bird suite as an opener for YES.
