These are four albums included in PA's Prog Related category from 1980 that are in my collection.  Which of these do you like the most?

Big toss up between Bowie and Talking Heads but I think I have a deeper connection to Remain in the Light than Scary Monsters.

All excellent but I fear no contest for the sublime Remain In Light

Haven't heard Terry Riley's. But of the other three I went for Scarey Monsters as it's my second favourite Bowie album even though Remain in Light is my favourite THs album, I'm afraid Mr Bowie will always trump TH.

1. Remain in Light
2. Scary Monsters
3. Never for Ever

Very strong albums.

Haven't heard the other one.

O Riley?

The Riley really is the odd one out.  I love the album, but it doesn't fit in well with the others for a poll both in terms of style and popularity.

(I'm playing al four youtube vids at the same time for an interesting sonic experience -  sometimes I like to play two at a time if I can synch them right).
