Here is a link to my top favorite albums of all time, any genre, but mostly prog. that's why I posted this on this site. I'm still young and I have many albums to get, so the list will probably change a lot. Tell me what you think.

This is also a thread for you to post your top albums of all time, any genre or just prog. I'm always looking for new albums to discover. I used allmusic to make my list. You can use any site you want or just type them down, doesn't matter to me.

Great list! I was into most of the same albums when I was in my early twenties (I'm currently 29). Personally I've never been a big fan of The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan but I've listened to all of their albums that you have on the list. Really great to see a few hidden gems like Khan and Nektar there as well.

Fine list !!

Would like to answer your call, but i find it hard to sort out what is my top 100.
I think i will try to make a list based on my last fm, but then i will most likely forget some great albums i havent been listning too much lately.   

 

Prog is whatevey you want it to be. So dont diss other peoples prog, and they wont diss yours

Nice list, and good to see some of my non-prog favorites (Joshua Tree, Blood on the Tracks, Sticky Fingers, Harvest and even, OMG, Electric Warrior) on it.
 
Great taste for someone your age! Clap

I asked progfreak to spit out 100, but it spit out 200 instead.  Ordering and inclusion/exclusion are based on ranking that I have given over the years.  I suspect that there are a number of albums that I probably like more but have rated less and there are some on this list that I probably rated higher than maybe I would if I were comparing them to other albums on the list.  Take it as you will, but maybe there are some nice albums listed within that you might discover.

Amarok, IMHO, is in the upper echelon of Oldfield albums, but many do consider it an acquired taste. It just depends how much you appreciate Margaret Thatcher's dancing.
