Poor, you need:

1. The full DT discography
2. The full Pain Of Salvation discography
3. Rest of Porcupine Tree disco
4. Rest of Satriani disco (didn`t like "surfing... album?)
5. Complete Pink Floyd disco
6. Buy some Opeth

then your collection will be OK

Sorry to drag it up to the top but just wanted to say thanks for the suggestions. The ELP collection has been expanded to a fairly large degree, as well as a tad mor King Crimson and also a Caravan album.

Cheers!

To much of that New rock revolution & Blur & Radiohead crap. But don't listen to me... You need more Iron MAiden & Dream Theater to be whole.... And maybe some Shadow Gallery, Evergrey, Tool etc etc

Try CREAM's live and BBC radio recordings instead of their studio works. Much more power and improvisations!

Have you considered Caravan? Some more Camel, and a touch of Anekdoten, some extra ELP (the eponymous debut!) would be nice.

I think...



get "Three Friends" by Gentle Giant; that's the only album of theirs I have, but it's pretty cool
 

It is

Welcome, Barbarian.

Many of your titles listed aren't prog, so your collection is pretty small. But the good news - you are among friends and will certainly get great advice!

www.half.com is  a great place to stock up cheaply on mainstream prog titles like Yes, Genesis and ELP.

Good luck!

Get some KING CRIMSON for God's sake!!!
I know albums are pretty expensive, but Internet is over there to serve you! Just a little search will bring you to a whole new discography
That's how I got my entire Procol Harum Collection (all classic albums except Home, Broken Barricades and Live w t Edmonton S O. And I know where to find them, too, just haven't had the chance to download!)

Where on earth are you dwelling, btw? You might have a chance to collect great deal of Russian MP3 CD's for more than reasonable prices! I don't want to reveal my collection here, suffice to say I've got almost entire cataloges of some 100 bands!!!

Nice collection for a start, though!
Keep on proggin'

Listen to Turkish psych/prog; you won't regret:
Baris Manco,Erkin Koray,Cem Karaca,Mogollar,3 Hürel,Selda,Edip Akbayram,Fikret Kizilok,Ersen (and Dadaslar) (but stick with the '70's, and 'early 80's!)

An allright start, you seem to have a thing for mainstream "indy" rock, Id suggest checking out a band called the dears, they deserve more attention then they are currently getting.

A pretty good collection there! And you'll have no problem finding new albums to buy, since you have pretty few albums of bands like genesis, camel, jethro tull, marillion and king crimson. If you're looking for new bands, based on your collection, I would recommend Van Der Graaf Generator and Gentle Giant.

Don't be afraid to check out some more recent bands like The Flower Kings or Spock's Beard for example! A lot of good prog has been made in the last 15 years too!

Welcome to progarchives!
Currently listening to:
- Andromeda
- Pagan's Mind
- Kamelot

I agree with Tuxon. It's a good start.
