"Ebony and Ivory," by Jackson & McCartney! Pure prog magic!
 (Just joking! That saccharine pap is a waste of three minutes of anyone's life! Jackson aside, McCartney sure has released a lot of guano in his time! BARF!)
Seriously though, lots of Kate Bush and Sting is very intelligent, small "p" progressive music. From Kate "Cloudbursting," from the former schoolteacher Gordon Sumner, I'll pick "Why Should I Cry for You."
Lovely, moving stuff!

Wishbone Ash aren't listed in the archives, Cert, which was the definition I offered at the begining of this thread, but yeah, I know what you mean.

Where to begin? 
I see a lot of my faves have been mentioned - what? Wishbone Ash aren't prog???
Try these;
AC/DC - Let There Be Rock (especially some of the awesome 20-minute live versions - my favourite is the one on "If You Want Blood...")
Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
Blue Oyster Cult - Black Blade/Monsters (Cultosaurus Erectus)
Boston - Foreplay/Long Time (Boston)
Celtic Frost - the entire album "Into the Pandemonium".
The Clash - Guns of Brixton
Diamond Head - Living on Borrowed Time
The Damned - Plan 9 Channel 7/Smash It Up (Part I)/Alone Again Or
Groundhogs - Split (all parts) (and Cherry Red!)
Helloween - Ride the Sky (Walls of Jericho)
Metallica - Master of Puppets
Ozzy - Mr Crowley
Pink Fairies - the whole "Kings of Oblivion" album.
Radiohead - Exit Music For A Film/Lucky/The Tourist (from OK Computer - a prog album if ever there was one!).

Great suggestions litter this thread, ('specially Zep's "Achilles' Last Stand", Bebop Deluxe, the Stranglers (though no one mentioned Golden Brown..Harpsichord, odd and often changing time signature, how prog friendly do you want?) Even noticed Dire Straits in there (I remember hearing "Private Investigation" for the first time as a prog mad schoolboy and thinking, hello, where are these guys heading?? Their next single "Twisting By The Pool" soon answered that question though!!!).
A poll seems a little redundant now, but here's a couple more contenders;
Red Hot Chili Pepers-"Breaking the Girl"
Wishbone Ash-"the Pilgrim".
Weather Report-all of "Heavy Weather".
Jamiroquai-"Music of the Mind". (Jazz fussion instrumental.)
Steve Vai-"Little Green Men",or "Call it Sleep" from Flex-able.
Supergrass-"Moving"
Anybody out like Kula Shaker btw? Much more prog than Britpop but they got lumped in with the mid 90's Blur/Oasis/Supergrass crowd, somewhat unfairly in my view.
