My first was ELP's "Tarkus". Great way to start things off in my opinion.

Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd was my first progressive album. It cost £2.25 from WH Smith in Oxford. Soon after I bought Assortment by Atomic Rooster, Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd and Relayer by Yes. Among my first rock albums were Brain Capers by Mott the Hoople, the first Wishbone Ash album and Moontan by Golden Earring. I've still got them all and continue listen to them on vinyl. I do not like the scratches at all, but vinyl does have a certain resonance.

Since i cannot consider Pink Floyd as prog or any heavy metal as prog I think my first prog-album was Aqualung...but many years have passed and my memory is getting older!

Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd. I bought it 12 years ago when I was still in high school as music I believed (correctly as it turned out) would sound blissful while stoned.

Rush's Counterparts (it's at least hard rock with progressive
tendencies!) I wore out the cassette listening to it through
headphones, in my parent's car, and wherever else it could play. The
funny thing is that I saw the video for Stick it Out -- one of their
least progressive tracks -- in '93 when I was eleven and thought that
it sounded so heavy and cool! Back then it really fit in with the whole
grunge sound at the time. I got the album for Christmas and discovered
that they were certainly more than a grunge band (though I still think
Stick it Out rocks!) It still remains one of my Favorite Rush
albums to this day -- very consistant, a heavy yet polished sound,
great songs.

I'm not exactly sure what my first prog album was. It may have been either a Pink Floyd album or a Rush album.

hahahha.... 'Rush...more than a grunge band'...  I did think the album was one of the stronger albums they put out in the later years of their career.

First album I ever bought: In 1983 I bought Rush's Archives, which was the first 3 albums on two cassettes. Thought I was getting a good deal. "Oh boy, three albums for the price of one and a half!" I think Rush and Fly by Night were on one cassette and COS was by itself on the other tape. I loved them at the time but then bought their more recent efforts that they had released up through Signals and Archives kind of went out of favor. I believe Grace Under Pressure was the first album that I couldn't wait to be released and had to get it right away.

PINK FLOYD "Meddle".
It was a tape record (mono). Then, in 1978, we could only dream of holding albums in our hands.
And then I even didn't know the words "progressive rock".

Wish you were here- Pink Floyd, I heard it in 1977 at 11, and loved it.
But it was not till Tales From Topographic Ocean, which I got hold of
in 1979, when I could distinguish prog rock from the rest of the music
and established a special affinity with! I don't hear PF anymore, but I
have all the Yes collection and hear them till today.

My first Prog album was actually the first CD I ever bought, Focus - Moving Waves. Still one of my favorites. I was only 9 when I bought it.
