Apparently they list the ten best prog albums of 1971 in the new issue. A reader on another forum posted the results:
 
1. Nursery Cryme
2. Meddle
3. The Yes Album
4. Tarkus
5. Pawn Hearts
6. In the Land of Grey & Pink
7. Aqualung
8. Islands
9. Fragile
10. Acquiring The Taste

Predictable obvious list?  What about First Utterance or Tanz Der Lemminge or Camembert Electrique or Tago Mago?

  Who cares whose best  as long as the music brings each individual, in my case myself, a lot of pleasure ? Lists is only for go shopping to your local supermarket. That if you are pre-senile (middle aged) or senile. The rest of the humanity does not need lists...... with the honourable exception of a commercial airplane pilot. It is a good idea to check out if there is four engines still attached to the wings and the onboard tax free storage is well stocked up with Johnnie Walker' Black Label whisky.    

Edit: Forgotten to check out the bottom of the list where it says "check spelling before submitting".

It's out already, I bought mine in WH Smiths about a week ago.  It has a "summer of prog" cover, on a white background.  Inside it's got lots of bands who played the High Voltage Festival, and it's guest-edited by Ian Anderson.

Yes. I say about this issue. So, does your issue write the same date (July 13th) for the next issue (issue 19)  too?

Apparently they've said on their Facebook page [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1601032754] the next issue of the magazine is on sale in the UK on August 31.

I thought it was pretty good, but only time will tell how comprehensive it's going to be.

Maybe a stupid question but...I wanted to know if you can recommend the magazine or if there's something better in the press industry. I obviously read most of the past pages of the topic, but I'm still a bit doubtful, especially because I don't know the price in UK libraries, but on internet it is very expensive...don't want to waste my money...

If you are looking for a magazine that is uniquely dedicated to prog (and I mean a mass circulation mag, not a fanzine), that is very well produced, extremely glossy, and full of articles by journalists who clearly know their stuff, then CRPR is for you. 

The downsides are it is very expensive, and I find myself these days taking less time to read it, especially the reviews - I can see better ones, and more contemporary, on this site.

All in all, though, it is still worth it.
