Only one? In that case I'll say King Crimson's Lizard. If I can choose another then it would be Jethro Tull's Benefit.

Herbie Mann? Miles Davis? We're going back aways into the early 60s, where everything gets hazy.

I definitely can't just leave this at one:

Dream Theater - Awake
Nas - Illmatic 
Soundgarden - Superunknown
Queensryche - Promised Land
Alice in Chains - Jar of Flies
Cranberries - No Need to Argue
Emperor - In the Nightside Eclipse
Jeff Buckley - Grace
Weezer - Blue Album
Common - Resurrection
Seal - Seal II

And many more Smile
Take me down, to the underground
Won't you take me down, to the underground
Why oh why, there is no light
And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life

1968:

1) Moodies: In Search Of The Lost Chord
2) Pink Floyd: ASFOS
3) Jethro Tull: This Was
4) Caravan: Caravan

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

1961 was a pretty good year for my favorite jazz solo artist. Here is my Top 5 of that year:
John Coltrane - My Favorite Things
John Coltrane - Ole Coltrane
Thelonious Monk With John Coltrane – s/t
Miles Davis - Someday My Prince Will Come
Oliver Nelson - The Blues and the Abstract Truth

I have a long list of albums in front of me from 1959 - the year I was born, but there's nothing that really stands out for me, simply because they're all a bit before my time, in just the same way as I never watch movies made before 1959.  I guess I would choose a 1959 album by Les Baxter & His Orchestra though, seeing as I have 32 of his albums on CD. I'm much more in tune with the music of the sixties, especially the Summer of Love year of 1967. Smile

I'm a fossil, born in 1955.  I pick Miles Davis "Blue Moods." 

Lots of good classic jazz to pick from!

1986

A quick look on PA and RYM prog lists, I couldn’t find a single album I’ve even heard.

I requested help by Google and found a couple that I’ve actually listened to and enjoyed:

Metallica - Masters of Puppets
Europe - The Final Countdown

Metallica came in my teens, but Europe I listened to as a kid. We had that album on cassette tape. There surely has to be more good music made this year, so maybe I should explore a bit.

So many of PA's top albums from 2001 are prog metal I haven't listened to. There's Yes' Magnification, which I think is fine, but the album I like most from that year is Estradasphere's Buck Fever.

1978

If I had to pick just one, it'd be either Jethro Tull - Heavy Horses or Rush - Hemispheres. 

Also:

Residents - Duck Stab / Buster & Glen
Captain Beefheart - Shiny Beast (Bat Chain Puller)
Kraftwerk - Die Mensch-Maschine
Bruford - Feels Good to Me
Magma - Attahk
Queen - Jazz
Jean-Michel Jarre - Equinoxe
Dire Straits - s/t
Patti Smith - Easter
