Today it is not Wolf City as I was expecting although it held the position for something like 40 minutes. No today it's Lucio Battisti's Anima Latina

There's just something about that album. It exudes warmth.
Sounds exactly like the cover looks.

Very difficult to choose just one obviously...

Sorry to be boring, but I'll say The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway as it's probably my favourite prog album of all time. I could choose one album for various genre's but as this is a prog forum..I guess the Lamb is the one

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

This dilemma reminds me of the scene in 'The Boat That Rocked' where the ship is about to go down and we follow this old long haired hippie desperately trying to figure out which album to save.

Not my favorite, but if I could only listen to one album for life, it'd probably be this one. Any other album would feel incomplete on its own.

For me, it'd have to be a Rush album.   (maybe the complete boxed set or something :)  )

Moving Pictures is probably still my favorite from them.

I'm in the same boat as the others that said this is just a theoretical exercise, and that if this had to come to fruition it would be a sad day.

That said, i'm pretty much required to say Agalloch's The Mantle.

Just finished listening to this one.  Thanks for the recommendation, I loved this.  (In fact, I'm on my third listening to it right now.  Played it all morning.  Beautiful album.)

What? You question my choice?

You fail. This choice is unquestionable.

This is not my favourite album, but if it only had to be one, then Incantations by Mike Oldfield.  Because it still gets better and better with each listen...

Cool
