Why thank you!

One interesting thing that I hadn't noticed until now is that :

King Crimson and ELP were part of the original beginner's list (simply for being prog staples) but were removed since they were regarded as less accessible. However, the advanced list has been the same all along I think with no revisions. When ELP and King Crimson was shoved out of the beginners list, they could've (should've) had some albums going into the advanced list tbut this didn't happen.

As a result, we have an introduction to prog thread which mentions no KC or ELP albums which is not a big problem, but one we might have to remedy soon KC's debut and ELP's Tarkus definetly deserve mentions I think.
