Of course when I think of prog rock ELP, Yes, and Rush come to mind. But listen to the 1st Ambrosia album (before they got all sweet and sappy), and of course Kansas!

I was lured to Texas with tales of 600 vinyl albums stashed in the back room of an office in the industrial area of Channelview TX. I flew out and spent 8 hours culling through them and brought over 200 albums home. Included was an album by Oz Knozz, a local group who finagled after hours studio time at the famed Sugarhill recording studio in Houston. I am not a big prog rock fan, but I had to listen to it, I was impressed. Band never really went anywhere, but that album is worth serious coin. I think they still play in the Houston area.

The latest Steven Wilson album "To The Bone" just came out a few days ago. A bit different than his earlier work...I really like it.
I also just discovered the most recent Neil Morse Band release...awesome

King Crimson has gone krazy...they are now touring with 4 drummers! Seems a bit lopsided to me.

My son turned me on to Mars Volta, quite a bit of frenetic sound coming from basically a duo. Not to listen to when you are in a mellow mood.
Almost forgot, what about Steve Morse and the Dixie Dregs!

The Floyd remains my all time fav rock and roll band and I know yall feel that way too.
If you asked me for a short of list of favorite bands, I'm not sure I would put Floyd on it.
But every time I listen to Floyd, I wonder why I don't listen to it more.
For whatever reason, Obscured by Clouds is about the only album of theirs that I will still periodically listen to in its entirety.
I guess The Wall, Dark Side, and the song, Wish You Were Here, got so much radio play back in the day, I never listened to those albums much.
