With the exception of Dark Side of the Moon, I've never heard a Pink Floyd album in it's entirety after A Saucerful of Secrets
(I've tried but apart from one or two songs, they just don't connect with me on any level)

WEll I stand by my statement. Depends what one considers major I suppose. I may have forgotten something that I didn't listen too, but I can't remember. Ask.

You don't have to ask if you don't want to.
Since you mention Rob's Op, I have heard all those albums.

Never heard anything by one of the more revered bands on this site: Dream Theater. Not a slam, just not interested yet. Spock's Beard and Flower Kings, only have one album from each and I stopped there for now.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Never heard Tales from Topographic Oceans, I havent heard Grace for Drowning, or We're Here Because We're Here, or Ziltoid the Omniscient, or The Power and the Glory (or any GG except Free Hand and Octopus), or post Wind and Wuthering Genesis, or a full Can album, or Tangerine Dream.
I think I'll stop there.

I feel not hearing most of the current bands is totally acceptable but not hearing a single rush album, for example is a lot to miss.

All modern, all essential in my opinion. There's more, I'm just lazy. Rush? Really nothing special in my eyes. Also I don't think I've actually ever listened to a Kansas album myself.

^ That is the problem...um...The debut....Leftoverture.....well when I think of it, most of them I haven't.  Must have heard just bits and pieces and the occasional live album. I'll check the discography...Masques..I heard that!

I do listen to a lot of modern stuff some are essentials, but a lot are amazing but i wouldn't call them essentials. I would really want to like cardiacs they are highly rated, i tried but didn't click yet.

On the contrary, I've never listened to the Cardiacs without thinking of you and your avatar! 
As for me, I have never heard a Flower Kings or Dream Theater album. I've also never heard a post-Fish Marillion album apart from Seasons End. I do have a Transatlantic album though, and about 3 Spock's Beard albums.

Confess! What "major" prog bands or albums have you never heard?
|
Find it very hard to define major Everything i consider major, i'we heard at least 150 times too many. On the other hand there is a lot of stuff that my mates consider major, i just cant remember how it sounds, even though they have prob. played it to me, hoping i would grap it.

Prog is whatevey you want it to be. So dont diss other peoples prog, and they wont diss yours

^^ Yeah, I think I'll be ok. They are pretty major groups though, liked by a lot of people.
