“Remember, if it doesn't say "Cuneiform," it's not prog!” - THE Jed Levin
Any time any one speaks to me about any musical project, the one absolute given is "it will not make big money". [tip of the hat to HK]
"Death to false 'support the scene' prog!"
please add 'imo' wherever you like, to avoid offending those easily offended.

Jan Hammer ( for the better and the worse he abused his crunchy lead sound, I forgot the name of the film where he composed the main theme based on a synth riff)
A friend and I used to joke that every great guitarist had a special tone or sound that only they and Todd Rundgren could make...
Pete Townshend live.
Cobra handling and cocaine use are a bad mix.
The Canterbury organists (Mike Ratledge, Dave Stewart and David Sinclair) come to mind.

There was a time when it was pretty easy to spot Holdsworth, (already mentioned), Jan Akkerman, Larry Coryell and John McLaughlin in just a few notes.

These are sometimes signature tones, sometimes signature melodic or harmonic approaches.

No one sounds like Mike Oldfield on lead guitar. I swear he has two sounds and it's two sounds no one else ever uses.
I also remember listening to a Pierre Moerlen CD, which I had no musician credits for, and suddenly a guitarist started playing and I said, "Oh, hi, Allan [Holdsworth]." Research proved me right.
