As do I.
A recommendation in itself perhaps? 
Nah, they were just over-egotistic show offs. |
I'd recommend a sampling by the very biggest prog bands as the place to start and from there branch out.
Genesis- Foxtrot
Genesis- Selling England by the Pound
Yes- Yes Album
Yes- Fragile
Yes- Close to the Edge
KC- In the Court of the Crimson King
KC- In the Wake of Poseidan
(I would only listen to Red if listening to the two other albums that came just before it Larks and Starless)

Tarkus is normally the album that metalheads are supposedly meant to dig.
