Just randomly stumbled across this - very cool! I need to listen to some more of these albums. There's plenty here I consider my faves - those are three awesome genres right there which I lean heavily towards for my music choices. Surprised not to see more Floyd - although they are also very prog. Spans nicely between the decades so you've catered well for "neo-psychedelia" - Tame Impala and King Gizz being classic examples. Very similar tastes - good stuff!
