Since Rush didn't make an album in 1979 i can now vote for something else Big%20smile

And the only thing I've heard on the list is The Wall. So I'll vote for that, though I do want to hear Art Zoyd, Univers Zero, and Bill Bruford.

Not a good year. Prog was weakening all the time.
 
But Floyd get my vote. Smile

Here here! Seconded whole-heartedly! A tremendous album, though I would probably give it four and a half stars! Smile
It would have gotten my vote had it been here.

PInk Floyd - The Wall, and Tangerine Dream - Force Majeure second.
Progressive rock is my medicine.

Flamen Dialis: Symptome Dei


In its absence: Eskaton or Vortex. Ended up voting for the former.

Some other greats:
KHA-YM: '10' GMT
Herbert F. Bairy: Traumspiel
Embryo: Embryo's Reise
The Residents: Eskimo
Art Bears: Winter Songs
Heldon: Stand By
La Compagnie Digitale: La Compagnie Digitale
Ma Banlieue Flasque:  Ma Banlieue Flasque
Over land and under ashes
In the sunlight, see - it flashes
Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me

Undoubtly for me, The Wall

Force Majeure comes close in second, an excellent album from the Tangs, and also Heldon's Stand By

^ I must say I'm really impressed that both you and jonali have listened through all these rare '79 prog-gems, but naturally even more disspointed by your unimpressive conclusion.

AGREED!

Not 5-stars, but easily a standout for 1979
A flower?
