I want to get into prog rock, but I have very little idea what prog is exactly, let alone where to start. I know someone here can help me.

I'm mostly a fan of the good ol' prog rock, rather than the likes of Dream Theater and Symphony X (although, you cannot really call these prog rock).

For info on the genre, read on wikipedia.

A few albums I'd try out is:
King Crimson - In the court of the Crimson King
Genesis - Nursery Cryme (or Foxtrot]
Jethro Tull - Aqualung
Yes - Close to the edge

Also, check out Prog Archives, where you can find info and songs for streaming from a large numbers of bands and subgenres within the prog genre.

Thanks. I'm the exact same way. I liked Dream Theater a little bit, but after listening to In the Court of the Crimson King, I just couldn't listen to them.
