Have you not heard Bohemian Rhapsody? :D

Thanks RJ,,,yes I listened to Bohemian Rhapsody when it was released, and it was totally unique compared with the other music of the day, I Never bought the album though,,,my friend was a huge Queen fan, he emigrated from England and introduced me to many cool new bands we never heard of before. As to the Prog label,,,when I was collecting music,,,Queen was considered Art Rock,,,the Prog distinction came about later, so when Boo Boo said he regretted putting Queen in the category that's what I was thinking.(Art-Rock, Acid-Rock, Psychedelic-Rock, Hard-Rock, Pop, Folk. Country, Classical, these were about all the choices available when I started out in the music world, things have grown a bit since then. Plus the small town where I lived was always a few months behind the current musical trends. Oh and I do Own a copy of it now:))

Queen is one of the greatest rock bands of all time. they incorporate opera in with their music and make it sound as if you were in a theater. not to mention no one has been able to touch freddie's vocals yet. queen will live on to be one of my favourite bands

Pink Floyd for me. I prefer their early stuff but Animals, some WYWH and Wall are classic stuff. And DSOTM is solid too.

0 for Yes? I mean, I didn't vote for them, but they were a close 2nd to Queen for me.

no love for Yes on these forums I tell ya :(

I love Yes.

They're third only to Pink Floyd and King Crimson in my mind, but they're all close.
