There are some hard to file songs and records. So just deliver your personal treasures which does not appear in the record list (better cross-check). I start with one of my favourite records  from the Deep Purple keyman Jon Lord : Sarabande 1976 EMI. Jon Lord worked together with the german ochestra leader Eberhard Schöner who was one of the first musicians trying a Classic/rock fusion in an intelligent way, by not just orchestrating but trying to combine elements of Rock and Classic. the record itself is based on classical dance forms Sarabande, Gigue etc. played by the orchestra, interacting with the rock instruments and is definetily Prog with very nice dynamics.

Again, Irish 70s Celtic proggers Horslips. Though not listed, their BOOK OF INVASIONS  and THE TAIN merit a place here much more than many marginally prog bands (much of the metal, etc.) that are here, IMO.Stern Smile

This is no surprise, every thing Todd Rungren ever did especially A Wizard/A TRue Star", "Todd", "Initiation", and "Healing". Neil Youing and Crazy Horses's "Weld" ("Cortez the Killer" is a killer song).  There is the Utopia Box set "Last of the new wave riders" missing in the archives, it has a half hour version of "Singring and the glass guitar" and then it goes into "Utopia Theme"

Great Todd albums indeed Wiz. I'd also add the new side of "Faithful". A half hour version of "Singring" eh, how many keys does he have to find this time?LOL

To tell the truth i think there is some added story line to Singring
