Hmmm...continuing in that thread...do you thing Queen could be considered to 
have any prog songs?  Some of their early stuff, I think was bordering on 
that, like The Prophet's Song off Night at THe Opera...or some of the album 
Queen...Queen II should qualify, if anything!  It's like almost a concept 
album...
