Continuing with my salute to Progressive Rock Bands, we have a double shot of Prog on one boot with Caravan & Gong. 2 bands you don't here half as much as you do Yes, Genesis or E.L.P. The British Isles really took the lead when it comes to Progressive Rock. Not to say that other countries didn't have some Great Prog-Rockers but from my own ear's perspective it seems like the British Prog scene just birthed so many talented bands and new sounds (not to mention giving us the genre to begin with).
