    If I'm not mistaken, the latest album by United Progressive Fraternity, Planetary Overload, lists 46 musicians, without counting individual members of choirs or orchestras.

    Whether you like them or not, they were the ones who set the temperature. They were the ones who gave names. They were the ones who codified the many different strands of music that came forth in that era.

    Context matters. It especially matters when discussing something historical. So, given that the music journalists (and to a lesser extent the DJs) were the ones who named and described the landscape that we obsess over today, yes, I think their eyewitness POV matters, and I'll take it over the modern Internet revisionists any day.

    I'm not a fan of building geodesic domes or alternative fact universes. (And I'm not suggesting that you are.) But that tends to be the result when historicity and wider agreed upon terms are discarded in favor of more localized definitions.

    Authorities don't determine usage. A good dictionary (like Webster's or the OED) knows this and strives to keep up with actual usage, rather than trying to prescribe it.

    How a magazine used a term in the 1970s may (or may not) reflect how the term was actually used then.

    It certainly doesn't define how the term is used in the 2010s (nearly 2020s).

    Stevie Wonder's core albums (Songs in the Key of Life, Fulfillingness's First Finale, Innervisions and arguably Secret Life of Plants) were unquestionably progressive by any reasonable definition of the word.

    Are they "rock"? My first response to that is, who cares? They're good, adventurous music that plays with, and occasionally breaks, the formulas of the time. What more do you want?

    You forgot Stevie’s music of my mind and talking book.

    And what we call “progressive rock” today was often called “art rock” in the ‘70s.

    I didn't forget them, I just don't consider them "core."

    You're right about "art rock."

    Wim Mertens - Inescapable 1980-2020 counts 92 musicians and 3 orchestras.
    One can argue is it is progressive rock, it ain't rock I think, but I don't care about labels.
    The other problem would be it is a collection of works he recorded in 40 years, which means one could consider it not really being an album.
