The prog-metal I don't own (primarily Opeth and Pain of Salvation) is a matter of priorities: there are other prog albums I devote my meager discretionary funds to.
Re the early Italian prog I don't own (primarily Le Orme), it is a matter of not being able to find the albums.
Peace.

Briefly looking through the top 100:
Focus
Riverside
Harmonium (sp??)
Most of the Italian prog stuff (unfortunately).
As you could tell i didn't look much past 50.  |

I generally give artists two chances. That rule has helped alot, since
if I had stopped at Rush's boring Moving Pictures, I'd never would have
bought the excellent "Hemispheres".

Hmmm...lessee now.....
Rembrandt
Van Gogh
Picasso
Vermeer

.......huh?.....

.
oh, MUSICAL artists!!??
Of the "big" names (i.e. those artists who are particularly popular
here on PA), I suppose Gentle Giant is the only one that I have nothing
of. I've heard plenty of their stuff, but for some reason it's just
never really grabbed me!

hmmm I'm a big proponent of the 7 listen rule... but never considered
the 2 album rule since honestly there have been so few groups that just
completely turned me off at the first album...

Moody Blues and Barclay James Harvest.
Both very mediocre and I can't see them as progressive at all.

I own no Gong. I always want to get some but whenever I see the rare opportunity to buy one in a store, I never have the money for it. I haven't heard alot of they're stuff but I do know alot about the band and I know about there music somewhat. |
Same here! I always thought they looked like a really interesting band, I'd love to get my hands on one of their albums.
Others: Henry Cow
Marillion
Camel
Tool
Gentle Giant
Procol Harum
Brand X
probably about a million others...

I have owned pretty much everything except for Renaissance, pretty much all metal, and some Italian albums, but I'm no n00b to the Italian genre. I make it up for it with my really obscure albums anyways  .

Do Marillion count among "big artists"? If so, we don't have any album by them in our collection.
Kansas are another band that are missing in our collection. And of course Asia.

I would think they do...regardless of how you feel about neo... they sort of do personify it ..a major branch of prog.
