^^ No, not necessarily. I like what you come up with and the fact that others add albums they were thinking of later in the thread makes it more interactive. No need to PM beforehand to bring up something "democratic" - you know, with personal musical preferences democracy makes not much sense...

Would you consider it an interesting idea to contact on PM some of the regular participants in these polls and maybe ask for suggestions for a certain year, even for what year to go with next?

Not complaining, and you're right stick to your formula - the random thing is nice. I just mentioned two other bands that would probably beat the other 14 of your list on my personal top prog albums-list of that year. MMEB's Chance would end up high on my list too...

All good suggestions but I would stick to the format I used at the beginning which is 15 albums. Of course, indicating your favorites that I have missed is always welcome!

Eloy's Colours and Sky 2 could have been in the list too, but even with these included my vote would go to Drama by Yes.

Permanent Waves is the only album in this list that I own, and the only one I'd really want to listen to.
Bits of Duke are OK.

Wow! That is random, but 1980 was a good year
 I haven't heard Asia Minor or Journey. It's kinda between Sabbath, and Genesis.....and Rush and Yes and Hawkwind..  I dunno, leave me out of this!! Ok, ok I'll with Rush..no wait Genesis. GENESIS IT IS!! |

First time in this series that there's no album on the list that I find really strong, although 1980 is not a weak year at all in my books. Never For Ever, Tangram, Familjespriktor, Colours, Sky 2, Gravity and many others easily beat all of these. I think I'll go with Bowie here, Leviathan and Duke are OK as well, but...

I'm in no Rush to make Permanent Waves, so to avoid any unnecessary Drama, it's a Yes vote for me.

Random Album Clash #12! On a Wednesday, as always. This time the year is 1980 - some interesting things (and some not so interesting) going on in the spheres of rock, prog, and pop. Let's see who will take this one, I have an idea which album might be the forum users' favorite but I will keep it to myself for now! So, please vote and tell us who you picked and why! Here are all the winners so far: 1970 - 'Lizard' by King Crimson 1992 - 'Hybris' by Anglagard 1985 - 'Misplaced Childhood' by Marillion 2019 - 'Resistance' by IQ 1968 - 'A Saucerful of Secrets' by Pink Floyd 1975 - 'Fish Out of Water' by Chris Squire 2000 - 'Lightbulb Sun' by Porcupine Tree 1982 - 'Signals' by Rush 1995 - 'THRAK' by King Crimson 2005 - 'Deadwing' by Porcupine Tree 1965 - 'Rubber Soul' by The Beatles
