This came form longer list of male and female music artists. These are 25 male artists with one album as chosen by the album ratings at Rate Your Music. Most are in PA, but I added some faves of mine not in PA that I consider to be at least prog related. I plan on doing the part two at some time (if this had just been about my favourites then I would have gone with quite a few different artists and various different albums).

Feel free to vote for up to five albums from the list that you appreciate/like.

Kevin Ayers: Joy of a Toy
Ayreon: Into the Electric Castle: A Space Opera
Syd Barrett: The Madcap Laughs
David Bowie: The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars
Glenn Branca: The Ascension
Leonard Cohen: Songs of Leonard Cohen
Miles Davis: In a Silent Way
Nick Drake: Pink Moon
Edgar Froese: Epsilon in Malaysian Pale
Peter Gabriel: Peter Gabriel 3 (Melt)
Serge Gainsbourg: Histoire de Melody Nelson
Steve Hackett: Voyage of the Acolyte
Peter Hammill: The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage
Herbie Hancock: Head Hunters
Allan Holdsworth: i.o.u.
Al Di Meola: Elegant Gypsy
Neal Morse: Sola Scriptura
Mike Oldfield: Ommadawn
Jean-Luc Ponty: Cosmic Messenger
Klaus Schulze: "X"
Sufjan Stevens: Illinois
Vangelis: Blade Runner
Scott Walker: Scott 4
Steven Wilson: The Raven That Refused to Sing (And Other Stories)
Robert Wyatt: Rock Bottom

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I observed before. It can be much like that with music for me; immersed in experiencing the moment.

Steven Wilson. Raven is my favorite Prog album post late 70s. A Top 10 album for me in the Prog World. No album since the release of Rush's Moving Pictures has been played more.

Ayers, Barrett, Bowie, Froese, Vangelis
I would have voted also for Morse, Wyatt, Di Meola, Oldifeld, Schulze
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution
