I think you're pretty much in the minority on that one, my friend.

Lately I've been into Magma's Kohntarkosz a lot, so I'll give that a nod.

Another great year with too many favorites than I again care to list individually. On top of them all, however, stands one: Relayer.

Relayer just inches above The Lamb for me...'74 is my all time favourite year...prog or otherwise.  In addition to those that made the list, some prog and some not that I love...
Ange - Au Dela Du Delire
Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs
Joni Mitchell - Court and Spark
Grateful Dead - From the Mars Hotel
Hawkwind - Quark Strangeness and Charm
Queen - Queen II
Blue Oyster Cult - Secret Treaties
Quark, Strangeness & Charm is from 1977 !! Hall of the Mountain Grill was the Hawk's '74 album

Oops...thanks for the correction...I had it in my music file as '74.  I always knew Hawkwind was ahead of their time Wink

Difficult one between "Mirage", "Hamburger Concerto", and "Turn of the Cards". I'll be going with the Focus one, though.

Of course I am. It's pretty boring though
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

You must lead an extraordinarily exciting life, then.

I tend to feel like the only one on this site who's not a fan of Relayer. I'd even go as far as to say it's my least favorite album of there's from the 70's.

Difficult choice since there are a lot of great albums from this year, but I'll choose Camel Mirage.
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.
