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.

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.

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

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....

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.

Missing out on four of Rush's best albums? Dude, check them out, it's some of the most brilliant stuff ever recorded. I think Rush is the only band of whom I have heard every single song in their discography, actually.

. Well at some point you have to miss on some things . You can't cover everything ... I think. I think I might have heard 2112 in its entirety, although I don't remember that. I will check out on all of their stuff, though .
On the topic: get ready for more shock. Everything by Pete Hammill, everything by Camel (except for a few tracks), everything by Supertramp (except for a few tracks), everything by Zappa solo (except for a few tracks), ... well, I suppose it's safe to say that the list goes on forever. Pretty much everything that's not on my reviews sheet .

. What track or album would you recommend from the Rush catalog that focuses on vocal melody or tone and melody going hand in hand?
