Vote for up to five you like (more more if desired) if any are liked, and mention in a post.

This is meant as an additional 4's poll to cover various albums that I love not covered in John's (Mellotron Storm's) list HERE (Click). He did already cover King Crimson with Starless and Bible Black, but as these are my favourites I want Red in it. If some think it unbalances the list by being such a popular choice, this is not meant to be a contest. I commonly dislike the idea of winners and losers in music. I know my tastes commonly are unpopular with many here, have had complaints when doing personal faves about missing the obvious choices (not obvious based on my tastes), and my tastes can be popular with others, but please try to choose up to fave albums in the poll that you appreciate. If you can't, that's fine. Additionally I would very much appreciate it if all who vote also list what they voted for... Love to put names to votes, so impersonal otherwise. And feel free to mention your own faves and lists (I like to compare).

1974:
Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom
Peter Hammill - The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage
Tangerine Dream - Phaedra
Gong - Radio Gnome Invisible Vol. 3 - You
King Crimson - Red
Area - Caution Radiation Area
Janko Nilovic - Rythmes contemporains (not in PA)
Cos - Postaeolian Train Robbery
Yatha Sidhra - A Meditation Mass
Faust - Faust IV
Hatfield and the North - Hatfield and the North

1984:
Cocteau Twins - Treasure (not in PA)
Penguin Cafe Orchestra - Broadcasting From Home
Siouxsie and The Banshees - Hyæna (not in PA)
Dead Can Dance - Dead Can Dance
Jean-Paul Prat (Masal) - Masal
Violent Femmes - Hallowed Ground (not in PA)

1994:
Portishead - Dummy (not in PA)
Pram - Helium
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Let Love In (not in PA)
Stereolab - Mars Audiac Quintet
The Future Sound of London - Lifeforms (not in PA)
Nature and Organisation - Beauty Reaps the Blood of Solitude

Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works Volume II (not in PA)

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

Goodness me! Apart from the two albums I haven't heard here, There's not an album here I'd rate less than 7/10. Almost 20 of them could easily have have gotten my vote in some other poll that wasn't compiled by you, Logan. So far I've only tried to place them all in order of preference (within the years of release). But that didn't feel right either. Phaedra and Silent Corner fourth and fifth? Surely that can't be right, as they are two of my all time most treasured albums. Et cetera... I think I'll just come back later to see which ones I think deserves a vote - that has none:)

Thanks Cristi, and especially Saperlipopette! for such a detailed and positive response. We share a lot in common (much much more than, say, me and Hercules, hope he is okay).

It was especially painful for me to leave off so many 70s faves like Miles Davis' Big Fun, Bobby Hutcherson's Cirrus, CLuster's Zuckerzeit, Henry Cow's Unrest and many others. Al least I should have included Big Fun. If I had fifty options then I would use them all, but I wanted to follow John's basic format (my list is more about personal faves than his methinks).
