I think there's only two I haven't heard. Of the rest this would be my top 10:

Moondawn

Viva Boma

Station To Station

Udu Wudu

Roller

Symphonie...

Agneta Nilsson

Stratosfear

Aguirre

Still Life

Magma America Great Make Again

Love Sámánének, would have included it had I remembered the year (I used PA listings as a guide to remember), and listening to Ragnarök right now on youtube, and loving it. As always, your tastes and knowledge impress me, but then I've discovered a lot and expanded my horizons thanks to you.

EDIT: Anyway, I'll vote for one you introduced me to, Zanov's, though Viva Boma I could just as easily vote for.

Oh and just because I doubt many have heard this album:

As every year in the 70's, 1976 was great year for music. Too many treasured albums here for me too choose one above the others but these are the standouts according to me:

Zanov - Green Ray

Cos - Viva Boma

Picchio dal Pozzo - Picchio dal Pozzo

Art Zoyd - Symphonie pour le Jour où Brûleront les Cités

Pierrot Lunaire - Gudrun

the five next would be:

Klaus Schulze - Moondawn

Tangerine Dream - Stratosfear

Popul Vuh - Aguirre, The Wrath of God

Zao - Kawana

Magma - Üdü Wudu

The only progrelated albums I can think of that I would have included in a poll like this not here is Ragnarök's self titled debut and Gonda Sextet - Sámánének.

As always, there will be ones I really like and missed, but there's plenty of good stuff here for someone who shares similar tastes to me, I think, and some eclecticism for those that wouldn't largely share similar tastes to mine. I know of some great ones that I'm sure I would love from this year that I just don't have yet too. Feel free to mention others, but in that case please also do tell me which of these you chose.
