zero votes for Phallus Dei, strange, 

i voted CTA; good album of eclectic jazz rock, funk, psychadelic, music

Procol is also king, and that album is my favourite nautical themed album. 

Ummagumma is a blessing of creativity

Have to give it to the audacious Chicago Transit Authority because of the timely uniqueness of their delivery. Several albums later, they would have jettisoned their drummer, lost their guitarist to the muzzle, and resorted to mere pablum.

CTA...great album.....saw them in the fall of '69 at IU Bloomington for $3.50....
 
btw....Terry Kath was with the band for 11 albums , two live ones in there , and didn't die until 1978....and Danny Seraphine was their drummer all the way from '69 until album number 17 in '84...for over 16 years.

I would prefer Tull's Stand Up to any of these, but for some unconscionable reason it was omitted. So A Salty Dog.

where it is now. I don't think "Ummagumma" was very influential on Krautrock; the similarities (like a part of Ash Ra Tempel's "Schwingungen" sounding like "A Saucerful of Secrets")  are rather coincidental. many German bands had been playing music like "Ummagumma" before; they just had not published any album yet, mostly because of some kind of inferiority complex. then Amon Düül's "Psychedelic Underground" came out, and suddenly no band needed to have this complex; they could certainly do better than that album

Arguably one of the best debut rock albums of all time.

I remember March 29th, 1969 seeing Chicago Transit Authority, unknowns pretty much, play on the lower 4th of a bill in San Bernardino, with Janis Joplin's Kozmic Blues Band, MC5, and Lee Michaels above them.  They blew everyone away with that first album set.

Since Yes and Stand Up are not part of this list, I'll take Soft Machine.
Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.
