I suspect as this thread progresses we're going to end up simply listing all the 70s bands in Heavy Prog... and my next suggestion perhaps doesn't help...

I bought this album on vinyl back in '72 or '73 and it features one of Roger Dean's first album covers (I think chronologically it may be his third cover (after Gun and Atomic Rooster) but I believe it may be the first to employ his distinctive landscape style). It's not a great album, but it's not a bad one either.
What?

Hatfield's finest - Babe Ruth:

I actually need Deep Purple-esque bands to fill in my heavy prog collection, recently i've been getting into more Keyboard-Guitar oriented bands such as Lucifer's Friend, Warhorse, etc

Check out the Band Black Country Communion featuring ex Purple singer/bassist Glenn Hughes,Jason Bonham,Derreck sherrinian from Dream Theater in keys and super star guitarist Joe Bonamassa.They put out 3 awsome albums a couple years ago and the band was formed in the Deep Purple sound.

Maybe,  but posting example tracks gives people who don't know these bands an impression what they sound like. So I think this thread definitely has its purpose.
