May have missed it on one of the lists, but has Bad Company been completely forgotten?

You might want to check out Toto!

Sure they did some cheesy stuff in the 80's, but outside of that they have some rockin' tunes!

the black celt

My favourite prog band would be FRUUPP-they released 4 albums of pure class. And they're from Ireland. Worth checking out.
