It might be easier for me to name my favourite albums in each individual genre of music because I have SO MANY favourites to choose from.

I agree. When I rate my top 25 albums of all time, this always gets a place. A perfect album for me. Upbeat superbly crafted songs, stellar vocals (both Rob and Adrian) their harmonies kick ass, incredible musicianship, and the recording sounds killer.

How could someone have a favourite Prog album that they considered not as good as what they thought was the best Prog album? Are there objective aesthetic criteria of which we lesser mortals are unaware?  Favourite Prog album of all time: Brain Salad Surgery by ELP Favourite non-Prog album of all time: Swoon by Prefab Sprout |

Still Life - Opeth
It was so hard choosing between still life, wish you were here, close to the edge, and foxtrot

I have been listening to prog for shorter than 20 years and Close to the Edge has emerged as the clear favorite out of all of the prog I have listened to. Relayer wouldn't even make my top 10, but it's still a really great album.

I thing they have a few post Mother Earth that are quite good. However, I definitely found the most recent release to be a major disappointment. Totally without inspiration.

Am I allowed to choose a compilation album as my favourite prog album of all time? If so, I'd choose the 2-CD "Echoes" compilation by Pink Floyd.

I also believe it's a masterpiece. This, along with 'Piper at the Gates of Dawn', was one of the last CDs I bought years ago (sort of completing the ones I've always loved but for some reason never owned). A few years ago I took it to an old friends' reunion to the Lake where we used to spend our summers in the 90's (then and there, 'Suck my kiss' sounded every night at the local Disco).  I put it on an old radio outdoors somewhere at the middle of our little barbecue at night  and it went inflamed!  it sounded all way through between drinks. Unforgettable memories with this one.Well you know.. favorites keep changing, 'Suck my kiss' of course was one at one point. As was 'I could have lied'. Now I'd say: The Power of Equality (always a fave) The Righteous & the Wicked Blood Sugar Sex Magik (love the drums) Apache Rose Peacock Sir Psycho Sexy Edited by Machinemessiah - October 08 2019 at 08:28 |

Fish Out Of Water is a supremely underrated album even among prog fans. Sick choice.

'Astral Weeks' is one of my favourite albums. Is it non-prog? It's hard for me to think of it as not experimental, but I daresay it's not prog-rock. |

I still have got to get their latest... however, for me they never got near Mother Earth again... that one's something special, then they got gradually poppier, until they hardly were even metal on their previous album. Still, they always come out with some high quality material, whichever stile they choose to play. I guess that's what happens when they take their time between each release. |
