Tubular Bells, but Days of Future Passed and Roxy Music are excellent albums too.

I'd like to have voted for Tony Banks too, but I had to go with Mike Oldfield, as Tubular Bells is the first proper album I ever owned, if you don't include budget-priced Top of the Pops compilations.

As much as I love A Curious Feeling and as bad as I feel about it getting no votes, I'm gonna have to hand this one to the first ELO album

It's Such a Shame The Party's Over, but Life's What You Make It and you can still enjoy this great song Today from Talk Talk.

I haven't listened to Talk Talk's Spirit of Eden album in a long long time, but I will do now, although it won't be Today.

Yes, you need to. It's about as far away from synth-pop as you can get. It's also the greatest album ever made imo. You need to allocate an hour of time when you won't be disturbed, dim the lights, put your best headphones on and listen. Prepare to be amazed.

My Pleasure, and there's now a second Crossover Prog poll For Your Pleasure, featuring Roxy Music, amongst others.

I didn't listen to Talk Talk before, so I couldn't compare it with the pop stuff. Maybe this is why it works with me.

Actually, if I were at Hergest Ridge, I would more likely feel like listening to the Hergest Ridge album over Tubular Bells |

I went with Tubular Bells, though I do particularly like Tales of Mystery and Imagination and Days of Future Past a lot too.

Bearing that in mind, I'll have to give my Talk Talk "Spirit of Eden" album another listen.

Thanks to PA I have discovered the last two albums by Talk Talk. They are fully prog.

I must admit, I wasn't expecting the Synth-Pop band Talk Talk to pick up so many votes on a Prog-Rock site.
