Foxtrot is #2, not getting a result for #1

Do you mean Foxtrot by Genesis? That is 1972, right? I wonder what is the earliest Prog album listed on PA. That should be the one.

Well technically the first one listed is Miles Davis - First Miles in 1945 but we can discount that as Miles is here for his fusion albums and they start much later.
The first appearance of something not jazz is Frank Zappa - Freak Out in 1966. 1967 is the first year with multiple entries Pink Floyd - Piper At The Gates Of Dawn The Moody Blues - Days Of Future Passed Procol Haram - A Whiter Shade Of Pale Traffic - Mr Fantasy I'm discounting entries with very few ratings Edited by Nogbad_The_Bad - 15 hours 3 minutes ago at 19:23 |

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

^Can't recall that it actually rocks, but in that case it's the first ever rock-album too. Well done, Varèse!

To be fair, the thread title is "What Was the First Prog Album", not "What Was the First Prog Rock Album".

Hi, I'm inclined to think that the idea/OP is not clear on that matter, and that the listener is not interested in music, but what others think! Maybe William J. Lederer was right! ... A Nation of Sheep? Heck, and that was 1961, right around the first mentions shown in this thread ... it says something about the time and place, that TODAY, we simply don't care about, or anymore! |

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Not a fan of Varèse, eh Pedro?  I admit his works are extremely demanding listens. Still I am surprised more people here aren't fans of his work...or at least familiar with it. Edited by Disconnect - 17 minutes ago at 10:09 |
