Seven Reizh. 
And not prog but rather celtic folk black metal, Aes Dana and Heol Telwenn use bombard, another instrument typical of Brittany.

	Alan Stivell. He is known for his harp playing more than anything else, but you will hear a wide variety of exotic instruments being played on his albums. Including bag pipes. I reviewed one of his early efforts that has a track which incorporates bag pipes in the most ingenious way.

	Oldfield uses them on Ommadawn. Phil Manzenera's Diamondhead has them featured somewhere. Dead Can Dance - Aion Dirk Mont Campbell - Music From a Walled Garden

	This may be the shortest thread ever, but does anyone know of any Prog that features the Bagpipe? Or any that uses it in some songs? It seems like something Mike Oldfield and Iona have done on occassion, but I can't recall. It seems like it would be a cool sound if done properly in a prog format. I am not sure where or why this popped in my brain... Edited by AEProgman - December 28 2012 at 08:28
