It's been a heck of a long wait (over a year now) for a new Prog Line album to appear on YouTube, but this one-off album by Booth, Davis & Lowe sounds like a Prototype for a Chris Squire album that never was, so I hope you'll agree with me it was well-worth the wait. Smile

4 stars  1978: BOOTH, DAVIS & LOWE - Prototype ( Progressive Rock • United States)  - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCazRqXtJzo

I'd be a Happy Man if I owned those eight albums, although it probably comes as no Surprise that there's no Trace of a Prog Line album anywhere in my CD Collection. Wink

It's the same here....most of my friends and relatives only know the big names....Floyd, Genesis, Yes, Tull,  etc...they have never even heard of bands like Caravan, VDGG, Gentle Giant , etc.
I have introduced a few people to prog and they have become fans but even my son in law doesn't get Tull for example.  Confused
My two younger brothers have never even heard of Camel or King Crimson, so chances are, they won't have heard of Caravan, VDGG or Gentle Giant either. Shocked

To own ten of those albums listed above is pretty impressive, considering none of those bands are household names - not even in the prog fraternity. Smile

Not sure how impressive it is....as I said before a friend many years ago who had a huge collection burned many obscure things for me. Now his knowledge of underground prog and psych was indeed impressive. 
I have these...
Cressida... both on cd
Dice...cd
Dragonfly...cd 
Ezra Winston...cd
Flame Dream...have first 3 on cd
Happy The Man...on cd all of them...first 2 on vinyl
Out Of Focus--first cd
Secret Oyster---Sea son on original vinyl and Krankehaus on cd
Tonic- cd
Trace- both on orig vinyl
Welcome- first on cd
Zomby woof- cd

Whenever I see a band that's listed as Avant Prog, I know that doesn't bode well for me liking the album. Ouch

 4 stars 1979: ZYMA - Brave New World (Canterbury Scene • Germany) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJbotZE5lV4&t=1s

An album very much in the style of the Canterbury Scene band, National Health, so if you like the sound of that band, then you'll almost certainly like the sound of Zyma too. Thumbs Up

No catching up needed....at any rate I was very lucky  to meet this guy many years ago who burned many odd prog and psych things for me.

Very nice indeed! Maybe not quite a classic like Camel's Moonmadness, but Zoldar & Clark are making Lunar Progressions in that direction. Thumbs Up
