Never actually listened to it myself, but you've got to admit it's an iconic album.

... so this time I'll mention Long Season by Fishmans.

I was born in 1979... so actually there wasn't so much great stuff released that year... at least not that I have found yet. Many good songs... though perhaps not as much as on other years. I guess the only whole album I know I can say is great is The Wall, and indeed I love it... but compared to the few previous albums it's a let-down.

I was born in the prog-crilegious  year of 2000 so not much great stuff was coming from the oldies. There was however Iona's Open Sky, GY!BE's Raise Your Skinny Fists..., and Lightbulb Sun to name a few.
