Gee, right around that same time people were looking for a name for the 
kind of overworked poppyclassicojazzrock hodgepodge played by people like 
Yes and ELP and they came up with the name "progressive rock."  The idea 
of there being any link between these two, even if only by an adjective, 
gives me the heebie jeebies.
