Oh, the old "Not a prog band but they have a few prog songs" debate. I'm down, but the only problem is that if the definition is stretched enough, EVERY artist has a prog song. "Open the Floodgates," as it were. I can make an argument for at least 2 songs off every Journey album, easily agreeing that most is straight AOR. Same for Foreigner and Boston and Guns N Roses. Why not "Estranged," "Civil War," and "November Rain" from the Use Your Illusion albums? I'm not actually making a case for them - rather pointing out the reasoning for certain Sabbath can be applied elsewhere ad-nauseum.
