I'll chose To Our Children's but it's a hard choice.

I can't think of any other band that managed to make seven such good albums in a row. Thumbs Up

Question of Balance for me:) I find it the most complete of the seven although I love them all. Question and Melancholy Man are two are of their best songs. Mike Pinder's keyboards really shine on Melancholy Man, probably his best moment with the band!
A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

Days Of Future Passed is easily the best amoung them.
 
I guess Lost Chord and To Our would follow.

Look I got into prog in the late '70's.  Their first run remains a collection of quaint stuff mixed with some timeless stuff for me. 

Psst, you might want to correct "cilddren". 

I went for Lost Chord.  It has the most tracks that seem timeless to me.

"In the garden of her love I'll stay a while."

"The sound I have heard in your hello
Oh, oh, darling, you're almost part of me
Oh, oh, darling, you're all I'll ever see"

"I know why the skies all cry."

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

"On the threshold of a dream" here. I love the way the album flows, cumulating in the superb "Have you heard" suite.

'To our childrens, children..'

'Seventh Sojourn' comes second for me, but there all pretty good.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

This as well. Most of the albums apart from Future have too much filler.

I voted To Our Children's Children's Children, but I love Days of Future Passed and In Search of the Lost Chord almost as much. They were a magnificent band it's a pity that people seem to have forgotten them. Only few of my friends know them and even they only know Nights in White Satin.
