I'm not trying to influence the vote with the choice of thread title, but my vote goes to Genesis this time around. Wink

Oof, this is a tough one. Brain Salad Surgery beats Selling England By The Pound but only by a hair's breadth. Needless to say, In A Glass House, Thick As A Brick, Larks' Tongues In Aspic and Close To The Edge are timeless masterpieces as well.

Only that I think of a choice instead my choice was Thick, but itīs Atom, my fav Floyd album and the album from my top10 alltime albums!

I believe Close is going to have some votes soon...

Too many great albums to actually choose one in particular. Since I cannot vote for all, I won't vote for any.

That's the way it goes sometimes. By trying to include all of the great bands and classic albums in the poll, it makes it really difficult to choose the best one. Smile

Tie between TAAB and godbluff, flipped a coin TAAB. Selling England not far behind.

Some mightily good albums in here. I vote for the best Caravan album, which doesn't have any votes yet and will have a hard time finding more against this competition.

Too many greats for me here, but I have to say, this is where I just love "Fearless." Put Family on the map for me, even though I knew their earlier recordings.

OK, it seems to be 5 albums what it takes for a prog band to reach their masterpiece.
