Nice charts, might be a great inspiration when I'm looking for new progressive rock gems… :-)

It is a great chart for us who love new and old progressive rock. I was wondering why you have RPWL so highly rated. Yes, they sound good, but they take so much of Pink Floyd... too much in my opinion to be considered at their level.
Some album comments would be great!

Prog prog prog. Prog? Prog!
As a side note, why is it that charts either have from like 0-2 prog albums or are at least 90% prog? There seems to be no middle ground

My favourite albums. At least for as far as I found them in al these different but exiting charts.
This one is going to change frequently while adding new albums.
