As far as Genesis goes, any similarity ends with the time frame issue.<br /><br />If King Crimson is "Prog", the Yes, Genesis and all those bands lumped into that category, are obviously not. It thus follows that if King Crimson is not "Prog", then Yes and company probably are. King Crimson seem to have more in common with Kanye West, or even Punk, than Genesis, Yes and that ilk.<br /><br />Then, consider, what does "Prog" really mean? If it is an abbreviation of "progressive", then how do Yes, Genesis etc . etc. etc. fit that description, and how did that misleading term get applied to a host of bands playing music which never developed over the years? King Crimson, on the other hand, changed from album to album, constantly morphing, changing and developing over a period of 4 decades?Bloggulatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02277867797233497542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131514811483888026.post-61948461706377209712010-06-07T23:33:46.124+12:002010-06-07T23:33:46.124+12:00Yo Stephen, I'm really happy for you, I'ma...Yo Stephen, I'm really happy for you, I'ma Let you finish, but Beyonce has one of the best videos of all time!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08024440694895271805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131514811483888026.post-30108019707081858392010-06-05T15:15:30.336+12:002010-06-05T15:15:30.336+12:00Or from the Ozzy (Prince of Dorkness) :
