Hmmm...continuing in that thread...do you thing Queen could be considered to
have any prog songs? Some of their early stuff, I think was bordering on
that, like The Prophet's Song off Night at THe Opera...or some of the album
Queen...Queen II should qualify, if anything! It's like almost a concept
album...
