If I wanted background music for getting stoned I would choose Yes.

Ha! And don't get me started about those ELP triple albums with only 4 songs.  ;D

/cover artwork is pretty trippy,tho

   Dont recall who did the artwork for ELP. Good stuff though. Rodger Dean did a lot of stuff for Yes and others and was quite good

Nothing better than Pink Floyd! I did it for years in my late teens up to about 21!

I'm going to have to say Tull although they push the envelope out of Progressive Rock.

Nobody compares to Rush though. NOBODY.

That is because they're Canadian.  ;D

These guys border prog and straight up rock.

Yes. To this day that is still the genre they are labelled under. Although many disagree and in my opinion their style/genre has changed/progressed over time.

from wiki... "Jethro Tull are a British progressive rock group formed in Luton, Bedfordshire, in December 1967"

Prog Rock = musical virtuosity, non-standard time signatures, synthesizers, tripped out stage shows, lyrics that go beyond sex, drugs & rock 'n roll, album side long storytelling. The more pure  the prog the rock is, the less chicks dig it. Prog Rock is definitely NOT sexy. Play the ladies some Stones if they want sexy.

All late Yes, 70's Rush (Hemispheres, 2112, Farewell to Kings), ELP, King Crimson, Marillion, even some Kansas fits the bill.

Tull? Not so much pure progressive, more like Hobbit Rock. Good stuff, but I wouldn't consider them Prog Rock like the groups above.
