Is Yes considered prog, or even better, Porcupine Tree?

That could show a lack of flexibility, true enough.


Level: Yes are considered prog, but I consider them shit as well, so they're in option ten as this is my poll.

I should have included the Marxist prog band Hatfield and The North and put this poll in P&R, really...

Why wasn't Yes considered as a choice?

(That ain't just my opinion: it's a fact.)
