Can a band be mediocre or even bad musicians, but still be considered quality prog?

I’m starting to think The Shaggs could check a few boxes on the prog rubric.

Along the lines of tribute bands, we had been talking elsewhere of a muppet Kraftwerk mashup called Rowlf & Florian and in looking for evidence someone had come up with that I discovered a video of a muppet band covering Statler Bros' "Flowers On The Wall" with a video featuring Beaker that is kind of awesome www.youtube.com...
