Has anyone mentioned ELO 'From The Sun To The World' ? (can't be bothered to check).That is an awesome prog friendly tune by a non prog band

Hey, Raggy
This is a "PRE-POLL" right? 
So when does the "REAL-POLL" start?

Ian McDonald (former King Crimson member) added the prog flavor to that first album. It is a good disc, everything after is MEAGOR .

Danbo is correct. 
My desktop Random House Webster's Concise Dictionary defines "egregious" as "extraordinarily bad; flagrant; glaring."
Stormy used the word perfectly!
Always glad to help!

It has always struck me Walter/Wendy Carlos's full version of "Timesteps" on the original Columbia "Walter Carlos's Clockwork Orange", (as opposed to the official soundtrack recording on Warner Records) suggested Carlos had been listening to Rick Wakeman previously. And so I suggest this for your list.

STYX(YEAH I KNOW PETER!! )COME SAIL AWAY |
There's a vast difference in quality and "prog friendliness" between "Come Sail Away" and the egregious "Mr. Roboto", just as there's a world of difference between the art rock of 1977's "Grand Illusion" album and the "anything for some radio play so we won't get kicked off the label" desperation of 1983's "Kilroy Was Here".
So dude, I think you're safe dude.
I'd also nominate Styx's "Crystal Ball", if Styx wasn't already in the archive.
