Interesting question. I voted for Chicago because of their early material but I would encourage the curious prog rocker out there to investigate early Gino Vannell, "Powerful People" and "Storm at Sunup" in particular, because despite his flamboyant posturing his band did a great job of blending jazz with prog, especially during their extended instrumental segments.

I would rather suggest Romantic Warrior by RtF or something by Mahavishnu to a Prog Rock fan, or maybe Spectrum by Cobham.
But out of those samples, Chicago.

Outside the track above, I'm not familiar with Bob James...
I always thought that Spyro's latin fusion terribly booooooring and even mildly irritating if pushed slightly above background music volume
sooooooo, it's all left to Chicago's early stuff, really888 But don't look elsewhere beyond the 8th album, though .... Coz it sucks!!!...

I tried to look for a progressive tune from the section of pop jazz as much as possible. The tune is not completely progressive. However, I thought that an arrangement and a complex melody were able to enjoy the fan of prog rock. I want to hear the opinion if it feels it if they are interesting. |
