This poll is meant as an accessory (a secondary poll) to John's (Mellotron Storm) topic Two by covering different albums than was covered in his 1972, 1982 and 1992 poll. Some of his I surely would have wanted on my list

This list is largely based on what I am most interested in these days, but I did leave off many favourites due to space and sometimes because I felt they might be too obscure. Please excuse what to you might seem obvious omissions from my list that are not in John's recent 2's poll. My Awesome Prog lists are much longer and those are very incomplete based on what I know and like. I like 1972 very much (and there are many, many more I love) and decided to go with 15 from 1972 and five from each of the other years.

This is a multiple votes enabled poll. Vote for up to five (or more) albums in the poll and please mention what you voted for in a post. Thanks.

Oh and love to hear about your favourites that are not on either of our lists if you want to share.

1972:
Jean-Claude Vannier - L'enfant assassin des mouches     
Can - Ege Bamyasi     
Dom - Edge of Time     
Herbie Hancock - Crossings     
Faust - So Far     
Brave New World - Impressions on Reading Aldous Huxley     
Alpes & Catherine Ribeiro - Paix     
Nick Drake - Pink Moon     
Popol Vuh - Hosianna Mantra
Moving Gelatine Plates - The World of Genius Hans
Gentle Giant - Three Friends
Haikara - Haikara
Neu! - NEU!
Agitation Free - Malesch
Gnidrolog - In Spite of Harry's Toenail

1982:
Kate Bush - The Dreaming
Laurie Anderson - Big Science
Bauhaus - The Sky's Gone Out (not in PA)
Cocteau Twins - Garlands (not in PA)
Peter Gabriel - Security

1992:
Current 93 - Thunder Perfect Mind
Swans - Omniscience (live) AND/OR Love of Life
Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works 85-92 (not in PA)
Cardiacs - Heaven Born and Ever Bright
Dëath in Jüne - But, What Ends When the Symbols Shatter? (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.

Voted for five including Haikara, GG, Can, Agitation Free and Dom. Could have picked more. The Agitation Free is one I left out at the last minute along with Roxy Music's debut, Kraan's debut and Nucleus' Belladonna.

Trying to respond to all even if/when I have nothing much to say or add...

Of course I like all of those, but to focus on one... With Nick Drake, originally I was only really into his Five Leaves Left, but then Pink moon hit me and it is awesome. While I like Bryter Layter, it still has some growing on me to go yet.

Nice choices. Three Friends and Acquiring the Taste are my favourite GG albums -- the debut is the other I have turned to the most, followed by Octopus. Hancock's Crossings was originally rather more challenging to get into than Sextant, but I grew to love it. Gabriel played a significant role in me exploring Prog.

Or when one might say that Security gets the rod or prod. Walk softly, perhaps, but carry a big stick if on patrol.

A really awesome list, imo.

I really like Kraan's Wintrup and Roxy Music. Much as I like Nucleus and have several of its albums (Elastic Rock, We'll Talk About It Later and Ian Carr with Nucleus' Solar Plexus, I don't have Beladonna)... I had heard of it and just looked it up now and see it listed as an Ian Carr release and I see the name as a live album under the Nucleus name. And there was a compilation release called Ian Carr With Nucleus that includes Solar Plexus and Belladonna.
