favorite prog album? didn't we do that thread already? and isn't it, like, 5,000 posts long?

let's twist it a little bit to make it more interesting. what is your favorite lesser-known prog album? this way, we shave off all of the obvious/typical ones that all of us already know about, like "going for the one" by yes or "octopus" by gentle giant or "foxtrot" by genesis.

i'll start - here's my top 5 lesser-known prog albums [loosely defined]:

"Soundtrack to the Film 'Breakfast on the Beach of Deception' by The Monks of Doom. [Camper Van Beethoven minus David Lowery, plus David Immergluck of Ophelias/Counting Crows/John Hiatt/etc.]

Speaking of the Ophelias....."Oriental Head" [bordering on psychedelia, but their songs are epic enough that they deserve to be included]

Thinking Fellers Union Local 282 - "Strangers From the Universe" and "Mother of All Saints" - they get 2 because they are so totally awesome

801 - "Listen Now" - Roxy Music's Phil Manzanera, Brian Eno, and a rogue's gallery of prog session men playing well-crafted songs with subtle orchestrations

Phil Manzanera - "Manzanera" - basically 801, plus cameos by such luminaries as John Wetton and the Finn Brothers of Split Enz, Crowded House etc. Some REALLY insane guitar playing on this one.

of course i love all the old standbys but these ones are slightly under the radar. anybody else like the direction i'm taking this, or do we want to reiterate how much we love jean luc ponty and mahavishnu orchestra etc etc etc etc? :)
