I omitted number 28: Selling England by the Pound
28? …28!!!
Bloody amateur. Rick Beato would not have missed any out 😂
Good choice...to omit 😂
It’s just a misdemeanor, you’ll probably just get probation.
@@paulbrookes413 You are narsty, very narsty, but you might be right.
“… the dog…. Where’s the f*cking dog?!…”
A two hour video would be the proggiest thing ever! I’m voting for that. Love you man.

@@Pwecko ah right; my bad. It is listed by you already.
Where the hell is Tarkus??!! SNORT !!
@@paulbrookes413It's at number 57. See the previous video.
This is the definition of a Prog video.😃
It is epic, a rollercoaster of emotions and leaves you willing for more.
Great job Andy!
Yeah, full of bombast and civilised OCD.
Andy’s reviews are the real deal, thank you.
Masterful job Brother Andy. Happy Holidays! Cheers!
Great List! Good Job!
Andy, what's more prog than expressing existential anxiety while being cold and exhausted? Absolutely awesome job! Already in the queue and waiting for the Prog Top 100 next year. Happy Holidays!
5 more hours till our brave Andy Edwards comes down from the mountain, again.
Please know Andy that your efforts are much appreciated. You have entertained and educated me. Thank you. PS Had to be Close to the Edge and I support your high placement of Dark Side AND Foxtrot is my favourite Genesis album. Love this list, lots for me to seek out and listen to. Have a great Christmas!
I’m impressed you could keep all these straight in order. Herculean effort.👍
Great vid. Andy true to form is great
Not too surprised to find 40% of my original vinyl collection included, great job in every respect 🥰👏👏
Thanks for all of your videos. Appreciate The Yes Album featuring so highly, that was my first taste of prog too. I would have included Argus by Wishbone Ash in my list, but in any case, Merry Christmas!
you did a good job!!
Great list, as ever, Andy - and you summed up the top ten list problem! On a given day, it would be………the next day, it might not.
Thank you for the England recommendation last video, that was one I'd never heard of, and it was really cool - I thought if it wasn't Bruford at first, then the drummer did his homework.
Good job 👏
This was absolutely great both videos.Love it Andy.You should go on The Prog Corner that would be exellent listening to the two of you talking prog
Good Idea. Scot’s enthusiasm is contagious, and he’s very up to date with the scene. It would also be good to have him join Andy here sometimes. I also love how he’s unapologetically subjective about what he talks about.
I have to say you are a pretty special human being, and your love of the music shines right through. Can’t ask for much more from a RUclips video.
Good job!
By the way, at the risk of betraying my lack of largesse, what is the tasty outtro music accompanying the list recap? I like!
Addendum- thx for id-ing the outtro music, there at the end!😂
I still like!
Andy, what you have done is established. It can be polished later with revisions. Be proud of yourself.
Well done. A daunting task for sure…
I agree Pink Floyd is clearly progressive. Animals and Wish you were here are extremely interesting, drawing the listener in just like the other bands we all love.
As always you did a fantastic job.
Now on to the neo prog top 100 :)
Relayer and The Dreaming are two of my favorite albums of all time and it was just nice to see that you have them sitting next to each other.
Omg you're me.
Favorite part of the video is when you are beating yourself up at the end! LMFAO!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I definitely put a like on this video because it was great .
Why was it great ?
Because you truthfully admitted , right as you finished , that you were unhappy with it .
There's no way that I agree with the order of your choices , but that's as it should be .
Nobody can create the definitive version of the top 100 greatest prog albums , because , as you stated , the minute you've compiled it , you know that it's wrong .
As we all know , these types of lists are fluid , and can change day by day , or even hour by hour , depending on what you've listened to lately .
Anyway , there were times in the old days when I would painstakingly put together mix tapes of prog , and other genres , and then would listen to it , and see the flaws right away .
All of this is just another way of saying , that's what makes it so much fun .
I thoroughly enjoyed this video , and I look forward to your next flawed , and incorrect , version of this topic .
Here's to never getting it quite right !
Great stuff fellow BRUMMIE
Glad to see Focus on this list. Trilogy was my favorite ELP album.
Agreed, Start it again as I believe you have Committed the "Crime of the Century" by not including this Supertramp Prog Classic. Apart from that Andy a very credible list, which as you say changes every time us true Music lovers re-visit and re-evaluate old albums on a day to day basis. Prog on !
Supertramp! Doh! I forgot them too. Another one which occurred to me only after I'd left my comment was Dave Cousin's only real venture into prog: The Strawbs, Brave New World. Ironically just after Rick Wakeman left to join Yes.
People who complain about the lack of newer albums forget one thing: For older albums we are able to determine if they have passed the test of time. Newer albums have not yet had time to prove their potential timeless capabilities.
Carl's brush work on Trilogy is off the charts.
Totally agree with you, Prog is a recent construct that fails to fully describe the explosion of musical talents of the late 60’s to mid 70’s, exploiting the album format, stereo, new recording technologies, new electronic instruments (mellotron, Moog etc.). Growing up then, the only contemporary term used I can remember is “Pomp rock”, used to cover ELP, Yes and Genesis. Well done you for this 🎉🎉🎉
It was good I enjoyed it. No Dino oh well. A video on proto Prog would be fun. Nice outro music.
You did a very good job, Andy!!! Almost all the best prog-rock albums are listed here!! I couldn't understand why "Selling England.." by Genesis was missing but now we all know (you omitted "Aqualung" too). For me, the top 20 would be 20 Brain Salad Surgery ELP 19 Meddle Pink Floyd 18 Still Life Van der Graaf Generator 17 Thick as a Brick Jethro Tull 16 Nursery Cryme Genesis 15 The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway Genesis 14 Crime of The Century Supertramp 13 Free Hand Gentle Giant 12 In The Court Of The Crimson King King Crimson 11 Aqualung Jethro Tull 10 Red King Crimson 9 Wish You Were Pink Floyd 8 Close to The Edge Yes 7 Trilogy ELP 6 Foxtrot Genesis 5 Larks Tongues in Aspic King Crimson 4 Animals Pink Floyd 3 Fragile Yes 2 - Selling England By The Pound Genesis 1 The Dark Side Of The Moon Pink Floyd. Of course, if tomorrow I make my list it will be different. I love Camel and I missed "Moonmadness", I think "Crime of the Century" Supertramp should be in the top 100. Manfred Mann's Earth Band has some albums that could make it like "Nightingales & Bombers" or "Messin'". I like Barclay James Harvest but some prog-rock fans don't appreciate them because they are too Christian and too soft, even so, "Everyone is Everybody Else" is very good. Very glad you included Gryphon. I think IF could be here, a fine jazz-rock prog band. ah! A great choice is "Romantic Warrior" by Return To Forever. Marillion with Fish perhaps could fit in too. Greetings!! PS: Some names of albums are not well written. PS2 "Stand Up" is not the third album from Jethro Tull but the second and I find it excellent but in a blues-rock vein, perhaps "Benefit" would be better chosen. Gong I don't know/nor like so much, but we all have different tastes in music, in rock, in prog-rock. PFM, Focus, Finch, Anglagaard and Flower Kings are fine examples of excellent European prog-rock. Wobbler is another great band. José Cid "10000 anos depois entre Vénus e Marte" is a good European prog -rock album from my country: Portugal. Sorry for the long text. Hope I'll see more of your videos soon!! See you Andy!!!
waaaaayyyyy toooo prog tunes to even design a conceptual framework in which to rank individual tunes ... no question 'supper's ready' is an incredible masterpiece but so are any number of Genesis, Rush, Floyd, ELP, Tull or Yes tunes ... southside of the sky/we have heaven, heart of the sunrise, gates or pick a couple of tunes off 'dark side of the moon' or 'meddle', or perhaps one of the most well known guitar pieces ever in comfortably numb. how about the full Cygnus X-1 ? Songs from the wood ? Thick as a brick ? Aqualung ? Tarkus ? so the question is what criteria could anyone possibly put together to rank any of these tunes ... def a brave undertaking Andy, you've opened yourself up for yrs of critique on this one lolol but worth every sec ... thanks for the effort and we're gonna hold you to further defining what PROG is !! ps ... perhaps the focus should be on the top 50 ... to hell with beyond that
Confusion will be my Epitaph - Contrite but defiant or just being human. Essential list.
An excellent list, Andy, but it was inevitable that there’d be a few omissions. Henry Cow spring to mind. Cheers.
I have 58 of these albums in my collection .
Close To The Edge is a perfect album. A masterpiece. One of my all time favorites from the time it was released to today. HOWEVER..I do believe the "I get up , I get down" section drags a bit and could have been cut by about two minutes.
Agree with Nursery Cryme comments. But surely top 5 ? Cheers
🌠duuude...good one ..merry British christmas....
...you're just hilarious, Andy - loved this, and time passed so quickly... just don't go down that rat's hole of having 'to get it right' - its like trying to push 100 foam spheres under water... you'll never get there... 😆 just one suggestion: listen to Godley & Creme's 'L' (from 1978) - yes, these are 2 of the founders of 10cc, but here they are solo, and go 'Zappa' - why is this album not known and acknowledged... I think, you'll absolutely bonkers love this! 😎
A Scooby-Doo sandwich of a prog list! I'd have given The Snow Goose the elbow though & slotted in Curved Air's 2nd Album. And some Henry Cow. In Praise of Learning, probably.
Sir, I am really curious about your opinion concerning Supertramp "brother where you bound" and Breakfast in America.
And dare i say SANTANA LOTUS
I enjoyed both videos and the photo with the doggie is so cute. If I were to compile a definitive list, it would by definition have one album per band, include Australia/New Zealand ( the third musical bastion of popular english language music), and exclude albums considered as mainstream rock by the majority of listeners, like DSOTM, and Led Zeppelin - they simply take up spots from bands/ albums that most fans may not have heard of or ever listened to, or dont even regard as prog. Also is the list prog rock, or does it also include prog folk, prog pop, prog psych...
You're a little brutal on yourself at the end of this mate. You skipped one but you put it in the comments so no harm no foul. All in all a job well done. These lengthy lists can be overwhelming. I don't think I'd even try myself. Cheers! 😇
A great list Andy many of my favourites on that. But I would like to gives some love to a couple more.
1. Civil Service by EGG.
2. Malice in Wonderland by Paice Ashton Lord.
🤘🤘🤘
Well done Andy, for getting through it. Many here i would have chosen albeit a different order. DSOTM has to be there. However, although not my fave The Wall should be in any Prog list, also the Division Bell. Close to the Edge - it has to be.
Well, I'd say that's a well thought out comprehensive list, even if you are having second thoughts. If I may be so bold, the only glaring omission to me is: Genesis - Selling England By The Pound". It is top 5 for me. But clearly it's not my list. I really enjoyed your thoughts and reasoning behind your choices. Thanks so much Andy!
Don`t feel bad . It`s a triumph of a list. I may not agree with some areas but ...... Rush at #5 is fantastic. I don`t think I would have Moving Pictures that high, and my family is from Neil`s hometown. Great job Andy. I own 29 of these picks. All on vinyl.
It was a titanic job dude, and really fun to watch. I'm only surprised that when speaking about prog and fusion NO ONE seems to have heard CYNIC??? It's a shame dude... Focus, and Traced in Earth are two of the best albums ever made in any genre, also think if dream theater made it, Chuck Schuldiner's Death, with Human, Individual Thought Patterns or Symbolic, deserve to be in any prog list ever. And also, Atheist, with Elements and Unquestionable Presence however metal and heavy they may be, deserve their place in such a list. Also before Dream Theater's Metropolis, i'd have put Porkupine's Fear of a Blank Planet, instead..., hehe. Cheers, will move on to watch ur fusion list and see how much i've heard snd if we agree! Happy new year my friend!
I love it when I learn about a band I have never heard of, even though it usually ends up with me spending too much money for complete discographies. Being a serious fan of Prog and Fusion, your mention of CYNIC made me go check them out. I just bought 'Focus' and so far really dig them. Maybe after a few listens I will come back and let you know what I think of them... Thanks for turning me on to them!
@@TribalResonance it's not an easy listen dude... but it's musical caviar, jazz prog and metal all in one. Music for the ages. Happy new year my brother! Peace!
leaving off Permanent Waves was correct 🙂
Not a bad scrape at the barrel, but there will always be the I-told-you-so's with their omissions. I would like to add 1977's "Black Noise" by FM.
Phasers on Stun is a quintessential prog tune. And it got airplay here in Canada.
in the court 18th..............you must be jokin' myyyyyyyyyyyyyyy friend
Great work! I would have had at least one of Peter Gabriel's early solo records on there.
For me, if "Houses of the Holy" can get in there- maybe the Police's "Synchronicity" could find a spot:( "Every Breath You Take" aside} Most the cuts have high concept or fantasy lyrics. There's a lot of sophisticated instrumentation (if not outwardly athletic). And one or two just outright strange tracks.
Given how big that record was, I think it's okay to look beyond the couple of "straight" tracks.
I enjoyed this, even though I didn't agree with everything. My only complaint is this: I appreciate your trying to be objective, but it's your list. I didn't agree with you saying 'this album is a masterpiece!' Then the next one, rating higher, 'I don't like this as well, I'm just trying to make others happy.' If you include any to please others, they should be #90-#100.
One confirmation of Octopus is greatness is the band would perform octopus medley
Beautiful job Andy. Remember: it's not really 'existential' angst if you can prevent it by simply cutting back on your caffeine intake. Cheers...
Nice list and all that 👍 I'm leaving you with my top 10 because I said I would in the chat 😜
10. Le Orme - Uomo di Pezza
9. BSS - ELP
8. Free Hand - Gentle Giant
7. National Health - National Health
6. Space Shanty - Khan
5. Rotters Club - Hatfield and the North
4. Sacred Baboon - Yezda Urfa
3. The Lamb - Genesis
2. TFTO - Yes
1. A Passion Play - Jethro Tull
Very nice Magma is in but agreed, chuck caress of steel for permanent waves.
In Led Zeppelin John Paul Jones played all of the mandolins. The one exception was Battle Of Evermore, which Jimmy wrote on the mandolin after Jones showed him the three easiest chords.
Page plays mandolin on the studio recordings of 'Tangerine' and 'Boogie with Stu' as well but the other more intricate examples in their discography were JPJ for sure.
@@jimmycampbell78 There is no mandolin on the song Tangerine. Not sure who played it on Boogie With Stu, but JPJ played all of the mandolins on LED Zep 3- these are by his own words. Page did not know how to play one until Zep 4.
@@robyale Apologies, I checked and I got that detail about Tangerine from an incorrect source. You're right about JPJ and LZ 4, however there is mandolin recorded on Tangerine's studio version- it's just that JPJ does indeed play it. Page plays pedal steel guitar on it.
@@jimmycampbell78 Not to be pedantic, but please, simply listen to the song “Tangerine” on LZ 3, there is NO mandolin on the track. None. It’s only 12 string acoustic guitars. John Paul Jones also plays the mandolin on Going To California from LZ4.
@@robyale I'm just going off online sources and where they say mandolin appeared on Zeppelin songs, I went through them to check Page's credits for mandolin, that's all I did. You could well be right and the sources wrong. Numerous sources state that pedal steel, 12 string acoustic guitars and mandolin is on the Tangerine recording though. I haven't re listened to the song.
Faust and Can I would never consider to be Prog.
Art Rock maybe!
Eloy or Grobschnitt I consider to be Prog.
Happy 80th birthday Keith Richards!
No 1 prog Exile baby!!
I was going to ask … . Good to see neither of us is going mad 😂
Starless and Bible Black is f'n good, because anything with Fracture on it, is the top of the top. Hearing it listed in the 40's made me type this!
Nice job! Was selling England by the pound an accidental omission?
Can’t say I agree with 90% but the top few seem right enough. Siberian Khatru is my Prog highlight - fusionish, symphony, epic and what the hell are they singing about? Great fun Andy, rambling, overlong and at times incoherent just like a progressive rock classic
It's a surprise entry for Marillion at number...... I'm not really a prog fan, I haven't heard 90% of the albums, (Edit: I'm surprised to find I own 8 of the top 50, 3 of the top 5) but I will still be watching. I only found out today that Gentle Giant once supported Slade at The Marquee. I expect everyone else already knew that.
Selling England By The Pound didn’t make the top 100? Firth Of Fifth?
No Marillion anywhere to be seen? Surely they must be recognized in the top 100…
For what it’s worth, here are my favourite prog albums, in no particular order:
Yes - The Yes Album
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick
Genesis - A Trick of the Tail
Kansas - Leftoverture
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
Rush - Hemispheres
Yes - Fragile
Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway
Yes - Close to the Edge
Rush - A Farewell to Kings
Genesis- The Wind and the Wuthering
Queen - News of the World
Rush - 2112
King Crimson - Discipline
I miss gentle giant and zappa in your list.
Have you heard Bo Hansson or Eloy?
@@bertkarlsson1421 No, but I just checked them out on iTunes. Not my cup of tea.
Hello Andy, the great insights, as usual! :)
(Interesting: "Stand Up" is my favorite too).
Stand Up is great but I think Benefit is the better album. Glad to have both in my collection.
@@johngarbutt Well, I like "Stand Up' better. I am glad too, as I have both in my collection too. :)
44 in my collection , 8 in the top 10, 15 in the top 20
Liked-Subscribed and sent £5 LOL
ohh noooo! But, but, but... one of the greatest albums of all time ever made, ever recorded ever created...that's the moment where you got confused and didn't say anything about it...!?? 36:45 LOL! All good, mate. It is indeed a video of epic prog proportions! Not easy by any stretch...
Cool. Genesis won’t feature ‘quite’ as high as I’d like, but I know Andy recognises their qualities. Should know better at my age hanging around to see this, as if I’m 12 again and waiting to see how many Oscar’s Star Wars gets
Did I miss Wind & Wuthering? For me Going For The One would be number one and yes where is Permanent Waves? Can we expect an updated list by the end of the week ;) Only joking, Well done Andy!
The fact that you used the term "Webernesque" adds instant credibility.
Some others in no particular order:
Edit: added Japanese female band Ars Nova - Transi [ _Sahara 2301_ will blow your mind]
Moody Blues - Days of Future Passed
Cathedral - Stained Glass Stories
Yezda Urfa - Sacred Baboon
Amazing Blondel - Fantasia Lindum
Colosseum - Wardance
Jean-Luc Ponty - Enigmatic Ocean
Mike Oldfield - Incantation
Eloy - Ocean
Family - Music In A Doll’s House
Kraftwerk - 2
Soft Machine - Bundles
Renaissance - Sheherazade and Other Stories
Brand X - Moroccan Roll
Museo Rosenbach - Zarathustra
Il Baletto di Bronzo - Ys
Curved Air - Phantasmagoria
Do I need 100 greatest prog albums! I have a few that I describe as prog but I know you prefer a wider definition. My record shelves are already groaning but I'm sure you are going to pick out several in your top 1-49 that I have not heard of or barely listened to. At least it will give me something to do between Christmas and the New Year.
This is a genuine question because I really don’t know, but have there really not been many women artists who can be thought of as having made really good prog albums? I caught ‘The Dreaming’ by the “Queen of prog rock” Kate Bush, and might have fast forwarded past other women you might have mentioned. It’s all very subjective but I would also have included Kate’s ‘Never Forever’ and ‘Hounds of Love’ albums.
Great list. Such a shame there was no room for The Good Earth by Manfred Mann's Earth Band or Spyglass Guest by Greenslade or Journey by Arthur Brown's Kingdom Come. Interesting to see some Jazz Rock/Fusion bands included in this list. I wonder if some other albums by Fusion bands could have qualified as Progressive Rock. For example, Bundles by Soft Machine or Wardance by Colosseum II or Enigmatic Ocean by Jean Luc Ponty. Maybe even Masques by Brand X. It's hard to delineate with some of these wonderful works. But then I guess this list could easily have been 200 albums. So you have to draw the line somewhere. Oops! I forgot Crime Of The Century by Supertramp.
Regards, John from Walsall (now living in Sydney).
Lists of 200 are better then Lists of 100. More is more.
Surprised not to see "Meddle"... it definitely falls in that category of not quite yet finding the sound, but being all the more fascinating because of that.
I think "Meddle" is *exactly* the point where the Syd-less Floyd found their sound. In fact, to these ears it is pretty much the definitive Floyd album, surpassed only by "Wish You Were Here". "One Of These Days", "Fearless", and "Echoes" are all total stunners and that's over two-thirds of the album right there. "A Pillow Of Winds" is also horridly underrated. And the much-maligned "Seamus" is only 2 minutes long as it is and acts as a nice little comic relief in-between all the amazing epics.
@@spiritof6663 My fave P.F. album is meddle.would be in my top 100.
@@paulkazakoff9231 At last, some common sense!
@@paulkazakoff9231 at last, some common sense!
I liked the angst best ...I can listen to Andy say "rubbish" all day
Peter Gabriel??
Great to see the Cardiacs. I would remove Dark side of the moon.... tedious.
Is "28" an unlucky number for you? You even left it off the list at the end. Just a suggestion: fill #28 with Cathedral "Stained Glass Stories"! (Kudos for including "Garden Shed"!!)
Ya need a top 50 krautrock list hehe
Did you skip number 28? It's not listed. I guess maybe that's where Selling England by the Pound is?
DROWNING WITCH KICKS ARSE
Was Selling England on this list? There’s no way that’s omitted
Hi Neil, that’s certainly in my Top 5. It was omitted but there is a note as the first comment here that it was actually #28. Tom
He has booked his ticket for eternal damnation 😂
Great (2) videos. What about Szobel??
Was expecting some Mr Bungle or Bjork but very nice list still.
There are definitely many of my favourites in the Top 100. There are many, to my shame, I know by reputation but not by album.. so I have a lot to catch up on. I was never keen on the Canterbury bands. Always seemed a tad bland. There are a few albums that I would have placed on the list. Maybe they’re either not proggy enough or dismissed as pop? Curious to know. They are Pavlov’ Dog - Pampered Menial (David Surkamp has a voice only matched by Geddy Lee); Supertramp - Crime of the Century ( yes they quickly retreated to a pop sound but Crime of the Century I will argue until the cows come home is prog and good prog at that); Television - Marquee Moon ( now here me out, Television arose in the CBGB scene but if anyone created a punk prog album it was them. They had two virtuoso guitarist in Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd whose swirling improvisations are a joy to listen too. Marquee Moon tells stories of Lower Manhattan with a tenderness that is evokes a pastoral landscape.). Marquee Moon is recognised as a great rock album but I believe it is also a great prog album.
....but
Only One Set the World on Fire (While No One Was Listening)
What is about the french band ART ZOYD,what is about the belgian bands UNIVERS ZERO and PRESENT ?
Now: The ones that are in your Personal Top 100 that are not yet on your 2 Lists.
The magma live album is called "live" :)
