Let me check your list and give you my opinion Keith:

Queen: Except 1 or 2 songs, NOT PROG'
Kansas: Until Leftoverture PROG' after Point of Know Return mainly NOT PROG.
Jethro Tull: Prog, Blues, Rock, Folk, Rock and even Pop depending on the album.
Rush: Not Prog' probably Hard/Classic Rock
The Who: 100% Not Prog', except MAYBE for Quadrophenia, but it's one of my favourite bands.
ELP: 100% Progressive, please remember Karn Evil 9, Tocatta, The Enemy God..., Trilogy, Tarkus, etc. Of course they have some cheese (Love Beach, Works II and In the Hot Seat), but a genuine progressive band.
Led Zeppelin: NOT PROG' great hard rock band.

But I agree with you in the concept, I hate when people say that bands like Journey, Supertramp, Asia, Rush or Styx are Prog', it's not I dislike them, but we can't call them prog'.
