Magma - Magma (aka Kobaïa)
Jethro Tull - Benefit
Amon Düül II - Yeti
Gentle Giant - Gentle Giant
East of Eden - Snafu
Pink Floyd - Atom Heart Mother 

You know the competition is tough when Yeti ends on third and AHM sixth.

East of Eden all day and all night! This is one of the better prog albums overall!
Categories strain, crack and sometimes break, under their burden - step out of the space provided.

Among this group? "Tull's Benefit. Talk about an evergreen. Not a bad track among the lot with some great instrumentation. God, to hear them come up with something like that today.

My favourites too, although I think I'd organise them as

1. Kobaïa
2. Yeti
3. Atom Heart Mother
4. Snafu
5. Gentle Giant
6. Benefit

As for Jesus Christ Superstar, I like it, but I do prefer AD/BC: A Rock Opera. :)
Just a fanboy passin' through.

Gentle Giant for me, very very very closely followed by T2 and Atom Heart Mother.
