    Hawkwind - Masters of the Universe (since you like Pink Floyd)

    Genesis - The Return of the Giant Hogweed (weird song - perhaps it'll pique your interest?)

    If you like Genesis, you can go ahead and explore them, as well as "Yes".

    I don't know if you would call them timeless, but they are a good band to listen to.

    and here is why this band is important to history of music, they were thought to be The Beatles after their break up and eveyone thought Paul was dead. Great little story, just for you.

    They Might Be Beatles http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXtzWKxVluY

    hope you enjoy
