And I've only heard one Gentle Giant album Add PFM to the list of bands I've never listened to

Okay, seriously, YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO THOSE ALBUMS.  Some of my all time favourites.

Combined your comment with your avatar and I now feel much shame.  |

Ok, time for my admissions, I don't count missing an album here or there by an artist that much of a gap as it takes time & money to fill all the gaps. Of the big artists who I've either heard tracks by and not listened to full albums or just not bothered to check out the biggest gaps in terms of this sites demographics,
I haven't heard full albums by:-
Dream Theater
Opeth
Flower Kings
Glass Hammer
Peter Hammill solo (which is kind of surprising as I have lots of VDGG)
Focus (seem to have been on my wish list forever)
Mars Volta
Kansas
Transatlantic
Spocks Beard
I've listened to multiple tracks by all of them but never really felt the need to explore further other than Hammill & Focus.

The only Yes album I've heard all the way through is Tales From Topographic Oceans.
The only ELP album I've heard all the way through is Brain Salad Surgery.
I've only heard two King Crimson albums, two Rush albums, two Gentle Giant albums....

The modern ones don't surprise me too much, but Relayer and Hamburger Concerto really surprise me that you haven't heard them.

I could probably come up with a long list just based on the Top 100 prog albums on PA. The highest one would probably by Godbluff (I only recently purchased Pawn Hearts) or perhaps Banco - Darwin. Never heard any Harmonium or Zappa either.

Nothing significant. My belief is that I've actually heard too much.
Just bands:
Uriah Heep, I guess.
Pallas.
Steely Dan
Oh, and Supertramp.
I could have said Santana, too, but I made the mistake up of putting on Caravanserai recently.

Looking back on my list, it occurs to me that it shows up pretty much all the bands I've long since given up on as not being for me.

Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

I suppose it could be interpreted as bragging as it implies that I have heard everything else but x, y, and z. Personally, I thought of it more as a moment, as in how can I be a regular on a prog site and not have heard x, y, and z. And the expected response was "Damn Scott, you haven't heard that????? You really must because it will blow your socks into tomorrow."

For some of the albums mentioned it might mean you dodged a bullet.

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

It isn't bragging (at least from me). Someone posted a review of Love Beach and it occurred to me that I never heard it. So I began listing "major" (read: well known) that I had not listened to even once. I decided to post what I came up with off the top of my head here and invite others to do the same.
Also, beer.
