Can we define   prog hard rock from those super classic rock bands whose show some elements and extended compositions, like Zep, Deep Purple & Doors, and others for example? Censored

I'm afraid that's right. I've never considered Zep, Purple or Doors to be progressive. They *progressed* but all three were HEAVILY blues-based. In fact they were all, technically, heavy blues. There is perhaps 'heavy prog' like Rush or Saga.

I don't think The Doors have something in common with hard rock...
 
By the way, I (personally) consider them rather Progressive.

The Doors went into Progressive territory a few times - I think the songs are quite obvious - and barely blues-based at all.
The important thing is not to stop questioning.
