Sure "The End" is a cool long song, but so is "Stairway to Heaven". I
don't feel either of these can be considered prog songs.


As were Leafhound and Captain Beyond. They are at least considered as
prog-related.
Situation that rules your world (despite all you've said)

I would strike against it but the rule displaces...

I say no. Morrisons lyrics beats any prog artists though and their definitely one of the greatest bands of all time.

The Doors are definitely not prog. Of course Jim Morrison is great, but their music has to speak for itself and in this case it just doesn't. The Doors belong in blues rock and classic rock, not prog.

I'm a pretty big fan, though I must say no.
