Midlake's latest is a prog rock record IMO.

I'd give NoMeansNo a prog nod. When people ask about bands who combine punk with prog, they're the first band I think of. They're pretty amazing.

I'm really surprised The Orb has not been added already.
1. Their music is very much in debt to Pink Floyd (lots of trippy Dark Side sounds) 2. Early records feature songs with prog-like structures reaching anywhere between 8 to 20 minutes (the original "Blue Room" is a 40 minute masterpiece) 3. Recorded an album with David Gilmour (Metallic Spheres) 4. FFWD is already accepted in ProgArchives, a band that included The Orb's Kris Weston and Alex Paterson |

Seeing the late great bassist Glenn Cornick from Tull has passed away this week; I'll put forward his band Wild Turkey.......their first album Battle Hymn to me is as prog as anything Uriah Heep ever did and only 100 times better.
Wild Turkey also had the late Gary Pickford-Hopkins on lead vocals who also happened to be the vocalist on Rick Wakeman's Journey To The Centre of The Earth. Would someone please get these guys on PA...I'm too lazy!

I fully agree that Dire Straits is worth a prog nod because of this album. Another one I'd like to give to Alice Cooper, a non-prog artist who created a prog masterpiece (Halo of Flies) and some other songs with a proggy touch. Ths third one is for the Velvet Underground, imho the inventors of Art Rock. I don't want to reopen the discussion about their inclusion, but I must mention them here.

Clannad. Their move away from their trad Celtic roots in the 80s gave way to a sound that definitely gave a nod to 70s prog.
Mel Collins contributed some tasty soprano sax work on several of their albums, like on In a Lifetime, their collaboration with Bono. A short instrumental on their album “Anam”, Wilderness, just about floored me when I first heard it. Are chord changes like that even legal? was my first thought.

Joni Mitchell, especially during her undeniably more progressive period in the 1970s, from Court and Spark on through Mingus.

The good ol' Grateful Dead.....how can Phish or the Airplane....or Iron Butterfly be on PA and not the forerunners of psychadelic, electronic and ambient music not be considered at least proto?
Inclusion of the Dead would open some memeber's eyes to a great progressive rock band.
