I agree saw the last 20 minutes of the first one seemed to focus on Jimi Hendrix, yes that guy could play guitar but I do think personally he's somewhat overrated  , Mike Brian May and Dave Gilmour play with more emotion and passion IMHO  , most of Jimi's playing seemed to me to be about gimmicks:p .
Where is Mike in there??? He's only had the biggest selling instrumental album of all time. The second prog is "Art Rock" but isn't Mike playing virtually all the instruments himself an art form??? He isn't Glam , like Bowie or Roxy Music, nor for that matter are Genesis and Pink Floyd, Queen would also fit in there as they truly made rock an art form, who else apart from the late great Freddie Mercury could combine elements of Rock/Metal, Prog, Glam, Punk, Rockabilly, Disco, Funk, Soul etc in their music and make it work 
BTW are ELP mentioned as they also made the 70's rock.
