Hornsby is definitely a tweener - I've considered adding some of his stuff, but it ends up being just a little too pop. But great piano work.

Billy Joel, particularly from his first three albums, has some good music that will also probably never make it to Aural Moon, but is surprisingly NOT pop, and has almost Emersonian flairs to the keys.

UFO? I like 'em, but just plain hard rock to me. Good hard rock, but hard rock nonetheless.

Tears For Fears I love. Ironic that their biggest hit was probably their single worst song ("Everybody Wants To Rule The World")

Styx "Crystal Ball" may show up in it's entirety (or awful close) someday. "Equinox" too, for that matter.

And Dire Straits I put in their own category - not prog, but GREAT music. I have all of their discs.
