Miles Davis - Bitches Brew I do consider Davis' Fusion albums as Progressive Music, and Bitches Brew is definitely my favourite of these too, even I'm also quite fond of Live/Evil and Dark Magus.

To be frank, I am not even a quarter versed in Miles' discography and BB is put up once in a blue moon to polarize friends and neighbors lol  He is definitely progressive in the true sense of the word. I am expecting a mention(s) for those 2, Big Fun, JJ, KOB, Silent Way, Aghartha, Spain maybe?

How did I miss them?! Yeah, that one is the 1!  Don't know the album or most of what they do, but that album cover is so sickening and bad taste I don't want to listen to it! Is this something DT fans tend to agree on??

Okay, by Prog I will use it to mean music in our Prog categories.
Dead Can Dance - Spleen and Ideal Miles Davis - Big Fun (over Get Up With It) Demon Fuzz - Afreaka! The Decemberists - The Crane Wife Dionne - Brégent - Deux Dom - Edge of Time (sole album but one of my very faves in PA) Dungen - Ta det lugnt Dzyan - Electric Silence Doctor Nerve - Ereia (with The Sirius String Quartet) Devil Doll - Eliogabalus Diablo Swing Orchestra - Sing-Along Songs for the Damned & Delirious No doubt I'm missing lots.

Most D albums: Dead Can Dance. Here's a timeless classic from Into the Labyrinth. Miles Davis is pretty much up there and Al Di Meola not far behind. |

No, most DT fans don't care as much for Systematic Chaos. I'm an outlier on this one. I think most DT fans lean more closely to their favorite being among Images and Words, Awake, Metropolis Part 2, or Six Degrees.

Yes, having Systematic Chaos as a favorite is unique, but so is having Awake as favorite (like me).  You are right about the other three (although SDOIT was never a favorite of mine, just a decent effort).

I was shocked to see Systematic Chaos, and The Astonishing also getting mentions😳Awake does little for me but I know it’s pretty popular. It’s Images And Words for me though, such a great sounding album😎 So: Dream Theater - Images & Words Deexpus - The King Of Number 33 |

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

^ some people like The Astonishing including me. Its actually listenable compared to some of the tehnical mish mash of so many of their albums. I don't listen to much by them nowadays but would probably go for Octavarium first followed by Six Degrees and Awake after that. I also love the EP A Change Of Seasons. They nailed the prog metal thing on the title track.
