Explosions In The Sky's "The Wilderness" and Hibernal's "The Dark Of The City' (instrumental mix) are 2 wonderfully recent craftings. :)

Goblin--Back To The Goblin (2005.)

Incredible instrumental album filled with beautiful crescendo, arpeggios and haunting bass lines by Fabio Pignatelli.
:)
Look out for tracks like Japanese Air, Dlen Dlon and Lost In The Universe.

Beautiful album.

I love Goblin's - Best tracks.  Covers quite a lot and the music blends in well with each other.

Bo Hansson
Mike Oldfield
Tangerine Dream
The Enid
Gryphon
Henry Cow
Egg (not always, but their last album Civil Surface has only one song with lyrics).
Some of the stuff by Focus
Univers Zero
Quiet Sun
Supersister

These are just some I have on my mind.

These two have prolly been mentioned but.....
Bruford's three fusion albums are favorites of mine and
Liquid Tension Experiment has several nice hard prog fusion things out there

Gryphon:  S/t, "Red Queen to Gryphon Three" and "Midnight Mushrumps".

Release Music Orchestra - Garuda

The Cosmic Jokers: s/t and "Galactic Supermarket" (ok, there are a few spoken words on the latter, but I think they don't count.)

Clearlight - "Clearlight Symphony"

Ash Ra Tempel - s/t

Popol Vuh - "In den Gärten Pharaos" and "Affenstunde".

Edgar Froese - "Epsilon in Malaysian Pale" (not in the remixed version though, which I hate)


BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue.

Not sure if they've already been mentioned but if you're open to instrumental prog post-punk, I'd say Dif Juz could sometimes fit the bill.
