That is something that makes them more tolerable than say Genesis, but it also makes them a bit less memorable than poofty bands who could pull it off like King Crimson or Yes. Not trying to throw shade on a dead dude just making conversation cause this forum is kinda slow. I am liking that sort of meat and potatoes prog that doesn't seem like it would sneer at someone who didn't even like prog these days though. Was just jamming like a mutha to Wishbone Ash's Argus the other day.
