All these albums are the second highest rated for each band on the PA list.  So, for example, "Fragile" is here instead of "Close To The Edge", and "Red" is here instead of "ITCOTCK".  Otherwise, it's voting as usual.
 
edit: apologies for leaving out your favourites - maybe I'll do a 'Part 2' later.

In a Silent Way by Miles Davis, which is my absolute favorite album of his.

Hmm. I really like several of these, but Storia di Un Minuto is important for being my first RPI album and what hooked me on Italian prog. A more spirited and rawer affair than Per Un Amico, but that's why I love it.

Pawn Hearts is the best.

Red is second

These 2 albums are probably in my personal top 3 (with Thick as a Brick).

A lot of good albums here, several of which I'd easily rate with 5 stars.

Came down to a toss up between Blackwater Park and Foxtrot, which make for 2 of my top 5 albums of all time. Went with Opeht since they need the votes but there's nothing in it between them.
Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005
