So for me, this past year has consisted of mainly prog-rock and prog-metal, with an emphasis mainly on current bands. The Mars Volta, Porcupine Tree, Opeth, Isis, Radiohead, Tool amongst others , have been at the top of my listening list for some time.
Now id like to get into the classic bands, the ones responsible for starting it all. Im already a big fan of King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Rush and Led Zeppelin but would now like to get more familiar with some material from the following bands:
Yes
Genesis
Mahavishnu Orchestra
Camel
Gentle Giant
Mind you, I have no idea if I would even like any of the above having only heard minimal music from each.
Where should I start with each?
Could you base a suggestion based my above tastes?
I happen to love long compositions and spacey/psychidelic soundscapes; Pink Floyd and Tool are my all time favorite bands.
Thanx for the help,
Kwitel
