I love Rush, but they're both underrated and overrated. Overrated because they seem to be the most popular prog band next to Floyd and I just don't think they touch Yes, Genesis, KC and the more lesser known bands. Plus Rush fanboys are super annoying.

Underrated because they do deserve a lot of credit they don't get, not only for their tremendous amount of talent, they were one of the few good North American prog bands, and they helped introduce a lot of people (including me) to prog.

ELO are better than ELOY. ELO are actually one of the best prog bands of the 70s

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, no.

ELO are not prog, not even close, it's pop with electric violins, don't get confused.

Voice just edges out from scratch for me, I like their poppy tunes, but most prog heads hate from scratch.

I don't hate From Scratch at all, though I've noticed that among prog. communities. I do feel, however, that most of the hype surrounding the track Circumstances from Voice is well-deserved.

I have to agree all the hype that voice gets is completely deserved, however I feel from scratch is unfairly treated.
