I'm all over that.  I listed King Crimson on my "listening" list earlier.  I'm sure Lew Offler will chime in here as well.  Don't forget Genesis, Gentle Giant, ELP, and Camel.  Listening to the Oils was no big stretch for my musical tastes around the time 10 ... 1 and D&D were released.

  A shameful secret of mine is my devotion to the great prog bands of the 70's onwards (Yes, King Crimson, Van der Graf Generator, Jethro Tull etc) and I have always heard echoes of that style in the Oils music (particularly "10 ....1").

  Does anyone else here any link, or have I disappeared among my Cozmic Debris?
