Decided to do this alphabetically. There are literally hundreds of albums I could list, but for me, these are first tier, since I can go outside the bounds of prog:
Burial: Untrue Bob Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited Bob Dylan's Blood On the Tracks Brian Eno: Another Green World Fleetwood Mac & Rumours Marvin Gaye: What's Going On Genesis: Selling England by the Pound Pink Floyd: Dark Side of the Moon Pink Floyd: Wish You Were Here Radiohead: OK Computer Radiohead: Kid A Rolling Stones: Beggar's Banquet Vangelis: Blade Runner Van Morrison: Astral Weeks Sarah Vaughan & Clifford Brown Velvet Underground: VU & Nico Neil Young: Tonight's the Night
Second tier would be *really* really close to first tier: MBV's Loveless, Husker Du's Zen Arcade, Tricky's Maxinquaye, Board of Canada's Music Has the Right to Children, Sigur Ros's Agaetis Byrjun, Nick Cave's The Boatman Calls and No More Shall We Part, and many more besides.

I haven't listened to that album in ages, but for a few years, when I was around 19-20, it was a huge discovery for me, and I lived and breathed it for some time. It's those memories that makes it still so special for me...
How about your list? I couldn't find it in this thread,

3)My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
4)Mike Oldfield - Ommadawn
5)Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced
6)Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures

I've created an atmosphere where I'm friend first, boss second. Probably entertainer third.

This is absurdly hard... hmm..
10. BURZUM- Hvis Lyset Tar Oss (gonna give it the nod because the post above me made me remember how much I love this album, the closer, Tomhet, or, emptiness, is a great instrumental, the opener carries the soul of black metal with it, any fan of progressive metal should listen to these two tracks.) 9. Sleepytime Gorilla Museum- Of Natural History 8. Mastodon- Blood Mountain 7. Isis- Wavering Radiant 6. Tool- Lateralus 5. Rush- Moving Pictures 4. Gojira- From Mars to Sirius 3. Jethro Tull- Minstrel In the Gallery 2.Kayo Dot- Choirs of the Eye 1. Tool- Ænima
My favorite album of all time, has changed me in may ways, and continues to do so.

Since this thread is back I decided to reexamine my list as it does change all the time, and this list was made two years ago. Though some albums have stayed. 1. Close to the Edge- Yes 2. Foxtrot- Genesis 3. Lamb Lies Down On Broadway- Genesis 4. Pet Sounds- The Beach Boys 5. Smile Sessions- The Beach Boys 6. Pawn Hearts- Van Der Graaf Generator 7. Spilt Milk- Jellyfish 8. Relayer- Yes 9. Sleeping in Traffic Part 2- Beardfish 10. Remedy Lane- Pain of Salvation 11. Sing To God- Cardiacs (I just couldn't not have Sing to God on my list)
