Yeah Triumvirat are a bit hit & miss but "illusions on a double dimple" has its moments. Osanna are good , more known for the non phixion sample from milano calibro 9 soundtrack. Alphataurus i would recommend checking out if you like prog stuff.b,121b,121Will post some vids..

font class="post"1b,121b,121Green has a few funky moments. There's a tune on one of his albums which, mushroom-head lyrics and adenoidal vocals aside, sounds like a vintage 70s Isleys ballad.
I wouldn't think of Heef Hartley or Battered Ornaments as prog. (great recommendations anyways).b,121b,121b,121b,121I went through an old hippies collection at a carboot yesterday, full of gong, hillage, tangerine dream ect, the only thing vaguely funky I pulled was this.b,121b,121b,121b,121 img src="http://www.tribalsmile.com/raymanzarek/autographs/thewholething-front-fullsize.jpg"1 b,121(sorry for the huge image, it was the only decent one I could find)b,121b,121b,121All this late 70s prog stuff seems to be pressed on the thinnest vinyl possible.
Funky Fripp?b,121b,121img src="http://users.utu.fi/petolo/crimson/earthbnd.jpg"1b,121b,121Recorded by their live engineer on a portable cassette player which makes it sound raw as hell.b,121[Dilla]Ruff Draft, muhfucka[/Dilla]b,121I don't think KC die-hards like this LP, but I think it's great. All prog should sound like this.b,121Mel Collins kills it and Ian Wallace lays down some img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/breakface.gif" alt="" 21 drumming.

font class="post"1b,121b,121No shit, this record smokes. Need it.
whats your guys definition of prog, then?b,121b,121zoo has crazy time signatures, jazzy bits, long instrumental passages, probably stupid lyrics etc...b,121b,121 or is it horn rock?

font class="post"1b,121b,121but sometimes you have to, so youll know what youre gettingb,121b,121when youre eyeing that record in the plastic bag and youre wondering if its worth $10-15 bucks, somebody tellin' you it's "music" aint gonna cut it
font class="post"1b,121b,121 -- 'weird rock' does it for me --- that probably sums up most of my collection.b,121b,121 img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jonnygraem.gif" alt="" 21
font class="post"1b,121b,121Never heard that one.b,121b,121I never thoguth of McDonald and Giles as prog, but that's me.b,121b,121b,121I've got some SBB records that definitely let the shred out. Is Osibisa funky prog, or proggy funk (been a while since I've heard them)?
Speakin of U-Turns , Deep Purple comes to mindb,121b,121Not exactly a prog band per-se but...b,121b,121 img src="http://www.thehighwaystar.com/specials/liverpool-76/mark4.jpg"11b,121b,121.."Come taste the Band" is a funky-rock album from the same band that made Burn (only one of theirs many ante-litteram prog-rock songs) just a couple of years earlier
