Minor quibble. If you include Floyd as Psych/ Space you should really choose a Psych/ Space album. neither of you have. This is true for any genre choice. Made In Japan is not proto Prog for example.

Nice idea. Canterbury Scene - National Health - Of Queues And Cures Crossover Prog - Split Enz - Time And Tide Eclectic Prog - Gentle Giant - Acquiring The Taste Experimental/Post Metal - so much bands that I don't know; a subgenre I haven't delved in yet Heavy Prog - Rush - Moving Pictures Indo Prog/Raga - unknown territory for me Jazz Fusion - Bruford - Gradually Going Tornado Krautrock - I haven't acquired the taste of krautrock yet Neo Prog - Casino - Casino Post/ Math Rock - Sigur Ros - Ágaetis Byrjun Prog Folk - Judy Dyble - Talking With Strangers Prog Electronic - Eddie Jobson - Theme Of Secrets (see my avatar ) Prog Metal - Dream Theater - A Change Of Seasons Psych Space - Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon RIO/ Avant - Henry Cow - Western Culture RPI - Premiata Forneria Marconi - L'Isola Di Niente Symphonic - Yes - Keys To Ascension Tech/Extreme Metal - no opportunity found to get to know it, no experience needed; although, I saw Opeth, which I might want to check out someday Zeuhl - I've heard Magma and although I find them original / inventive, I'm not too crazy about their music Various - Mannerisms - A Celebration Of The Music Of Geoff Mann Prog Related - Asia - Asia Proto Prog - The Beatles - Abbey Road |

I know what you mean, but quite frankly I'd be stuck without Animals as I'm not that familier with Psych/Space either. |

I will say Can - Future Days just because.

How long do you spend coming up with a list like this? I like albums from each category, except Indo/Raga I am not familiar with. But I really can't come up with a favorite from each. Or at least I don't want to take the time to make the attempt! But I am enjoying reading yours, so carry on!!
