The final year for these polls, so a part II poll after this. Looking here at 1973, 1983 and 1993.
I've left out some huge albums for 1973 like Selling England By The Pound and Dark Side Of The Moon. I also wanted to include Zao-Z=7L, Henry Cow-Legend, Le Orme-Felona E Sorono, Embryo-Stieg Aus and Tangerine Dream-Atem but so many more.
I think i stumped myself here, but this is a good excuse to play some of these.

Wonderful choices... There is more that I like here, but Herbie Hancock's Sextant, Hatfield and The North's self-titled, Eskaton's Fiction and Art Zoyd's Les Espaces Inquiets have been the most significant to me. My first thought was to navigate to Sextant, but I quickly migrated to Les Espaces Inquiets.

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

No obvious favorite this time. Although many great albums. I think this is my top five:

Hatfield And The North- s/t
Art Zoyd-Les Espaces Inquiets
Camel-s/t
Eskaton-Fiction
Anekdoten-Vemod

-this one underneath seem to be the most popular among them, but it's always been my least favorite Mwandishi-album:
Herbie Hancock-Sextant

Went with Marillion.
RRUUSSHH and Genesis are decent listens, but these albums don't spend a lot of time on the turntable.

Camel's debut deserves a vote.

Many great ones here. I vote for Anekdoten as they don't have a vote yet, but could well have voted for Art Zoyd, Camel, and the Ozrics.

It's one of three Art Zoyd albums that I've given 5 stars to, so yeah big fan here. I'm glad you migrated over to the dark side.

You may have stumped yourself John but you’re not alone
Then again seeing Sextant without any votes makes me sad, so that’s where mine went. These days I rank those three Mwandishi albums just about equally depending on my tastebuds dujour. There is a strong ‘beehive quality’ to the proceedings that I really dig, Hornets naturally included.
