Prog Albums that are "Ahead of its time"

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

The only one I can think of is "No Pussyfooting" by Fripp & Eno.  This presaged the era of sampling and music modification, using the most basic techniques (Revox tape machines). 
Mind you, Les Paul did some of this even earlier, but he didn't write any "prog albums."  

Other than that, I agree that prog albums (CTTE etc.) were "of the time" vs. "ahead of their time."
