John Sloman of Lone Star went on to join Uriah Heep breifly, for their "Conquest" album. Good band LS, "All of us to all of you" and all that. Not sure about their prog credentials though.

Madgo,did you hear the extended version of Love Is Like Oxygen? This is a prog track!
A few others off the top of my head:
Lone Star - The Bells Of Berlin
Be Bop Deluxe - Blazing Apostles
Al Stewart - Nostradamus
Iron Maiden - Ryme Of The Ancient Mariner
Mountain - Nantucket Sleighride (to Owens Coffin)
Simple Minds - Waterfront
Beatles - Day In The Life
Jean Michel Jarre - Magnetic Fields Pt1
Deep Purple - Child In Time
Hi Richard - yes that is the version I heard and I thought it was very good actually, I had always remembered Sweet as being a top forty band but they obviously had some very good elements to them. I always thought they had the Queen type vocals early on, maybe even before Queeen I see you mention "Lone Star" and that must be the band from Wales with Paul Chapman later of UFO and Waysted. I have their albums and enjoy them quite a bit. Thought I was the only one who remembered them...

Hi Madgo.I have both Lone Star's albums as well.The first album has some seriously proggy stuff and is very good IMO.They also employed Jeff Wayne to provide an orchestral arrangement for one of the songs on 'Firing On All Six'.I reckon they have enough Prog credentials for them to be included in the archive.What do you reckon?

Umm..I think you'll find that Uriah Heep IS a Prog band (certainly more Prog than Radiohead could ever dream about being).

Cool. I've always considered their middle period ( Look At Yourself - The Magician's Birthday) progressive. They started out as a hard rock band similar to Deep Purple then their 80's and 90's output was more Metal-oriented.

Vangelis' album Albedo 0.39 sounds prog to me. I also love Beaubourg but I doubt you can classify it as anything except maybe wierd sounds , strange noises and effects.

Sweet has another song with prog elements: Fox on the run (the intro, mainly). There is the obvious Zeppelin, with No quarter, Achille's last stand and The song remains the same. Deep Purple's Made in Japan has some atmospheres that reminds me prog. By the way, there is some kind of link between Deep Purple and Uriah Heep? MiJ has some choirs that sounds exactily as the choirs of UH.

'Vienna' by ULTRAVOX!!
Also, from the same band, 'Astradyne', 'Private Lives', 'Western Promise' ("Vienna"), 'Stranger Within', 'Accent on Youth'/'The Ascent' ("Rage in Eden"), 'Hymn', 'Visions in Blue', 'We Came to Dance' ("Quartet"), 'Heart of the Country' ("Lament").
They could also make some almost heavy metallic rock with a bass synth replacing the bass guitar and a synth replacing a second lead guitar -- 'All Stood Still' ("Vienna").

Uriah Heep - Magician's Birthday ?!!! Umm..I think you'll find that Uriah Heep IS a Prog band (certainly more Prog than Radiohead could ever dream about being). And I agree with you Greenback: FGTH's 'Welcome to the Pleasuredome' has Prog elements (even Steve Howe on guitar).

I'd have to agree with you there. I'd also consider Tommy to be Progressive Album in it's own right, likewise with Quadrophenia, which is my favorite album.
