Octavrium followed by Passion Play.
If all of Foxtrot was as good as Supper's Ready then that would have won hands down but..............!

Foxtrot, Still Life and Blackwater Park are all great albums. I wouldnt bother with Octaarium as its DT's worst album by some margin.

Well, seen as we can vote for as many as we like I would vote for all but the bottom 3 but that would be boring.

If you're fairly sure you like or would like Opeth, you need to get Still Life and Blackwater Park, as those are two of the best albums the band ever made. Aside from that, you also need to get Foxtrot. Mostly for Supper's Ready, one of the greatest songs ever, but the other tracks are good too. Octavarium isn't that great, with the possible exception of the title track. Still, not necessarily worth spending money on unless a) you really like Dream Theater, a lot, and b) you've already bought all their other albums and want to complete your set. |

| Octavarium, if only for the masterpiece that is the title track. Or, if you'd rather get a cd with more than one amazing track, go with Still Life. |

Stormwatch is one of my favorite Tull albums. Elegy is their best instrumental track ever. |

  But Passion Play is my favourite...

Actually, most of the stuff on your list is quite bad... Except Britney Spears' ''Baby One More Time'', which I think is a real prog-masterpiece. You must get it right now. In fact, I don't understand why Britney isn't in Prog-Archives...  Personnally, I think she deserves a place in the RIO/Avant-Prog category. It's clear that some persons on the site don't do their job...
Ok seriously now... I think Foxtrot's really the one you must get...

Zappa - We're Only in it for the Money< hes best album of the ones i have heard yet, and one of the best albums ever! incredibly groundbreaking.(even rolling stone (the magasin) thinks its good ) And its probobly the most fun album i have ever heard, his later albums sound so forced imo but this one realy is "fun".-------------
