Top 10 By Year: 1974

Extremely hard, but I go for Red, an album which should have launched Crimson as a massive worldwide band until Uncle Bob decided to run away. It is an album cited as an influence by so many influential rock bands outside of prog.

	None of those: Queen II. From those I guess its "The Lamb". I'd say "Relayer" if side 2 was a bit superior, but it ain't THAT great. Side 1 is better than anything else on the poll. Mirage, Red and Crime are amazing as well.
	I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place

	It's between The Lamb and L'Isola di Niente flips coin and PFM takes it:-)

	I pick "King Crimson - RED" BUT this is not mean that I don't like other albums in this list or RED is better than some of them! IMO The Lamb , Mirage and Relayer are "Masterpiece" with no doubt , and after them Focus and Hammill and PFM albums are "Great". RED have more stuff that fit for my ears and I vote to it.

	I'am going with Gentle Giant BUT Hamburger Concerto has a special place in my heart and lately I've been coming to listen Robert Wyatt and understanding his sound.
