I guess, not so few people would say that in the '80s, there was not much else proper Progressive Rock than Neo-Prog 
- if to define Prog strictly and not include Prog Metal.
That's certainly not my opinion, as there WAS much else, as for instance these favourite albums of mine:

 Agnus  (ARG)  -  Pinturas Y Expresiones   (1980) 

Asia Minor  (TRK/F)  -  Between Flash And Divine   (1980)   

Bacamarte  (BRA)  -  Depois Do Fim   (1983)

Bi Kyo Ran  (J)  -  Bi Kyo Ran   (1982)

Djam Karet  (USA)  -  Reflections From The Firepool   (1989) 

 Eskaton  (F)  -  4 Visions   (1979, 1981)

Halloween  (F)  -  Part One  (1988)

Iconoclasta  (Mex)   -  Reminiscencias   (1985)

Los Jaivas (Chile)  -  Alturas de Machu Pichu   (1981) 

P.L.J. Band  (Gre)  -  Armageddon   (1982)

Solaris  (HUN)  -  Marsbeli Kronikak   (1984)


What is your opinion and other good albums to mention (if not including Neo-Prog and Prog Metal)?
