Tarkus had Jeremy Bender, not Benny the Bouncer, which was on Brain Salad Surgery. Gentle Giant was enormously talented, but not nearly as successful as ELP, Yes, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull or King Crimson. It was largely a UK band that didn't have much exposure to the American audience. IMO, their approach was a bit too quirky for mainstream prog play. But talented? Yes. Incredibly so. But the beautiful thing about art is that there is no such thing as "the best." It is entirely subjective, and we all have our favorites...
I watched In the Prog Seat or corner as you like to call it, LOL, and it was brilliant viewing. Your video is no mug either as your on your own doing it. Keep it going and I'd love to see you on In The Prog Seat, give those Americans a run for their money.
Hiya Pat. A very good video that is well written and presented. Your style is believable as well as interesting and has come on so much since I’ve been subscribed. It’s good to see and resulting in a noticeable increase in your sub count from what I can see. Keep it up. Well done. Dave✅✅

Thanks for the comment and for pointing out Jeremy Bender, my mistake. Gentle Giant were such a talented band, but never really made it big.

Thanks, Sue, yes I said corner, just a slip of the tongue. Chance would be a fine thing getting on that show.
