In terms of rock bands doing more interesting stuff in the early to mid 70s

King Crimson, Can, Hawkwind, Soft Machine, Henry Cow, Gong, Bowie, John Cale, Brian Eno, Zappa, Roxy Music, Van der Graaf Generator, Captain Beefheart, Slapp Happy, Neu! I would argue were much more interesting than Pink Floyd. If you want to go from the mid to late 70s I could make that list 10 times longer.

I don't doubt that in the 60s Pink Floyd were innovative and interesting, by the 70s, not so much.
