Oi Nimbus!
Get thee down and raise up the jaxie-danny.
At a time of audio-pap, The Moodies pioneered the use of the studio as an instrument, lyrics with depth & seriousness,concepts, instead of just group poses on front covers the use of foc art to illustrate these concepts. The justaposition of acoustic instruments with electric. Earliest use of mellotron - okay, mebbe Graham Bond beat them - not sure. Ignoring all outside fads and influences; making something truely unique FOR THE TIME. Period significant.
Moodies influenced "Court of Crimson King". That is a given.
Moodies influenced many UK bands WITHIN MONTHS: Cressida, Cirkus,fantasy,Spring,Gracious,KestrelBarklay James Harvest.
You just go and suck me off, Jimmeh Punk-diapers..

Re: So then cocksuckers. Wot was the first prog lp?
First big classical to feature drums as a lead was
Fanfare for the common maaaaan. 1940 summat.
Not the ELP one ya dolts !
Yeah.....uncanny innit ?
So the first LP of that......that be the answer .
And it weren't fucking ELP !
And even if it was ....it was only a recording of the first prog music.
I claims me progmeister badge and the right to wear a great coat , live with me mum , and never loose me virginity.
