Who Dunnit? - Genesis (Wos it choo or wos it me? or Wos it it 'e or she?)
Tonight, Tonight, Tonight - Genesis
Vapor Trails (Yes, the whole album) - Rush

There are more which I know I shouldn't like but I still do.

For me, these 3 bands represent my idea of a "guilty pleasure" in that they don't readily come to me as prog, per se, but are in the prog camp for sure. They are, The Allan Parson's Project, Supertramp and Ambrosia. I unabashedly love these bands, but would shudder to share that fact at a KC convention or Opeth backstage get-together... But there it is...

Have any of you seen the music video for Don't Kill the Whale? It's freaking hilarious.

Um...Jeff Wayne I guess. Oh, and, Angra's cover of Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights."

Also Rainbow. I have an odd suspicion that anything with Dio would be considered a guilty pleasure.

I would have to pick "Arriving UFO" by Yes. 

Every time I hear it I cannot get over how cheesy and awful it is (considering that the same band had done Awaken a year earlier), but I still listen to it on a regular basis and can't help but smile. 
 
cool song. Nothing cheesy about it apart from the synth sound
