how the heck did a thread about the death of a member of the Ramones turn the corner to Progressive Rock?

justshutupandtakeit argued that the Clash were far superior to the Ramones because, "Talent is the greatest factor in good music." I said it's that sort of thinking that leads to progressive rock, which justshutupandtakeit hates. (I actually like a fair bit of prog-rock ... Yes, Pink Floyd, Genesis ... but none as much as I like the Ramones.)

Did I actually type a spiel about Progressive Rock and not mention Pink Floyd - SHAME ON ME. Actually Pink Floyd came before Yes. In the words of Emily Litella "Nevermind"
