Hm. I have a few, but...

Jane's Addiction -- All of side 2 of Ritual de lo Habitual

It's kind of a suite almost, isn't it? It's not all connected themes, but the moods and musicality of that second side are so different from their funk metal stuff.

That's really cool. I can completely see that song being done by any of the great 70s keyboard prog bands.

both masterpieces, I prefer Estranged though, kinda overshadowed by the first one
Other prog songs by non prog or prog-related that I recommend:

Budgie - Parents

Electric Light Orchestra-From the sun to the world(Boogie no.1)

Iron Maiden - To Tame a Land, Alexander the Great

Kraftwerk - Autobahn (mostly experimental though)

Led Zeppelin-Kashmir

Metallica - Orion

Miles John - Music

Moody Blues - Legend of a Mind

Stories- Earthbound/Freefall

Wishbone Ash- Warrior

Climax Blues Band - "Amerita/Sense of Direction"

Climax Blues Band had a lot of proggy touches in their music during their early years, including the simple fact that they were so eclectic, especially for a band that was essentially a blues/boogie rock band (of course they morphed into a more yacht rock/AOR-type band later--their trajectory actually has some simliarities with Chicago, who were also quite proggy at times during their earlier years).  If everything they'd done had been in the vein of "Amerita/Sense of Direction", though, I would have simply considered them a prog band:

The whole album is a space rock masterpiece, I can't understand why they aren't here.

Anyone find Def Leppard's "Overture" from their debut album a bit proggy?
