Truthfully, I have not looked at the Archives to see if there was a list like this available. So, please forgive me if there already is.
I would just to see just what people's idea of "classic" is. For my money, a classic, essential disc must have a combination of melody, atmosphere, great songs, perfect production and flawless playing.
I present my list of classic prog and non-prog records (in no particular order, mind)
1/Rush: Moving Pictures
2/Yes: 90125
3/King Crimson: In The Court Of The Crimson King
4/Anna Nalick: Wreck Of The Day
5/Maroon5: Songs About Jane
6/Genesis: Foxtrot
7/Black Sabbath: Paranoid
8/Opeth: Damnation
9/Metallica: Master Of Puppets
10/Prince: Purple Rain
11/Michael Jackson: Thriller
12/Guns 'N Roses: Appetite For Destruction
13/Fleetwood Mac: Rumours
14/Dream Theater: Images & Words
15/Queensryche: Empire

these are not classic albums in my book. ------------- "Magma was the very first gothic rock band" (Didier Lockwood) |

I think this actually ELIMINATES most of the classics. |

Half of your list is nowhere near classic in my book. Such lists are pointless.

| My list is based on MY impressions of such discs, whether it be prog or NON-prog. So this list does have worth. |

^To you, but hardly anyone else. There's a http://www.progarchives.com/top-prog-albums.asp?salbumtypes=1#list" rel="nofollow - top 100 prog albums based on average ratings and there's http://rateyourmusic.com/charts/top/album/all-time" rel="nofollow - a list on RYM as well. I personally don't care for those or any lists at all. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/ocellatedgod" rel="nofollow - last.fm |

Should have done a poll instead.  But if it's a list of albums you really like, you are obligated to elaborate. ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
