Kansas
Rush
Genesis
Jethro Tull
Yes

But honestly there are so many prog bands I love ... ELP , KIng Crimson & Camel should be on this list .... it gets down to the mood I`m in really on any particular day I may enjoy one other the other depending simply on mood.  I can think of plenty others that deserve a mention and I haven't even started on prog metal.

To narrow it down to 5 is extremely difficult, but I'll try.

5. Neal Morse
4. Yes
3. Dream Theater
2. Frost*
1. Ayreon (although, I consider Ayreon as more of a "project" than a band)

Honorable Mentions:

Satellite (criminally underrated band IMO)
Kate Bush
Trans-Siberian Orchestra (responsible for getting me into prog)
