Not a large body of work, but I've always been partial to the synth driven prog of Happy The Man.

"Dark" stuff of 70's.. when I read this I had following band name in (black) capital letters in my head
Van der Graaf Generator
Basically, I recommend all albums besides the first one, which is quite different to the other albums and, excuse me fans, not as solid as the others. All the others are highly recommended for "dark" prog, especially Pawn Hearts.

'jazz prog'- new corruption of the genre or are we not talking 'jazz rock fusion' - otherwise I would recommend the obvious, check out the top 20 album listed in the Archives.

Specific recommendation:
As far as French Canadian progressive rock goes, you can't beat the excellent Maneige's album Les Porches. Lots of jazz and classical stylings. The 'obvious' progressive rock starter-set is, in my opinion, something like Fragile or Close To The Edge - Yes Nursery Cryme - Genesis (SEBTP is better, but it took me much longer to appreciate) Thick As A Brick - Jethro Tull In The Court Of The Crimson King - King Crimson Emerson, Lake & Palmer - ELP and Free Hand - Gentle Giant If you like darker stuff, Van Der Graaf Generator's Godbluff is also vital. |

And don't forget Return to Forever's "Romantic Warrior" - the best album they put out (bar none...)

Jazz prog? Get Frank Zappa's Hot Rats... maybe more jazz than rock at times and God knows that else Frank threw in there, but it's still a pretty cool album.

For French Canadian prog from the 70's, you have
- Morse Code (available thru ProgQuebec : www.progquebec.com )
- Maneige (also available thru ProgQuebec)
- Octobre (available from Amazon.ca)
- Harmonium (more like Folk-prog, available from Amazon.ca)
Good luck ! :-)

Jean-Luc Ponty is really good Jazz Fusion. Enigmatic Ocean is a great album of his to start with. Mahavishnu Orchestra is awesome as well.
