Funny list, you forgot VdGG, GG, KC, TFK, E(cholyn), ..., ...
The problem with a top 20 prog albums list is that there are much more than 20 really great albums. So whatever you do, some essential albums will be missing.

My congratulations for including that underrated jewel of prog: Rain Dances.
I'm not sure about my top 20, but I think there would be a lot of Dream Theater, Pain of Salvation and Camel stuff. After them Rush, Marillion, Jethro Tull, Opeth, Neal Morse... (any of his projects) and many others that I forget now.
