My favorite non-European progressive rock band is probably Japan's Mr. Sirius, who in my opinion were the single best thing to come out of Japan's short-lived 80's prog. rock heyday.

Check this out fools! :P

Damn, I forgot this thread! Well, here you are some more Iberian prog from the 70's:

Experiência (Portugal): album Passo a passo ("Step by Step", 1973).

Pan & Regaliz (Spain): Magic Colors (1971) and Dead of Love (1971), strongly influenced by Jethro Tull.

*Crack (Spain). Classic/Symphonic prog. They published only one record. It is a great album, though: Si todo hiciera crack ("If Everything Cracks", 1979). Here you are Descenso en el Maelström ("A Descent into the Maelström") and Cobarde o desertor ("A Coward or a Deserter").

*Gòtic (1977) was a band from Barcelona (Spain). As Crack, they released one album (in this case, an instrumental one) only, but it's delightful. It is titled Escènes (which means "scenes" in Catalan). These tracks are Jocs d'Ocells ("Bird Games") and Història d'una gota d'aigua ("A Tale of a Water Drop"):

Máquina! (Spain, 1968-1972). Don't miss their album Why? (1970). A gem.

have you heard Premiata Forneria Marconi from Italy?

they're kinda that Yes/early King Crimson hybrid

their 2 early albums, Per Un Amico and L'Isola di Niente are essential listening

Lone Star (1966-1977): Pájaro de fuego ("Firebird", 1972). Módulos (1969-1979): Realidad ("Reality", 1970).
