The first time I heard Red I thought it was recorded in the 90s or something, sounds ahead of its time I think. Though I don't think it is the best on this list in terms of production.

Finally, a poll where I know all of the albums! Alright, I can vote on polls now!
It was a close one between Dark Side of the Moon and Close to the Edge, but I went with Close to the Edge. It needed more than that.

It's simply unfair. All of these albums are good, but none, save for Dark Side, NEEDED advanced production. Dark Side, why that album is one that needs the studio like a loving brother. The eerie 'short sharp shock and they won't do it again', the heart-beats, the building album overture with Gig screaming in speak to me, the clocks - what a memorable event the first time the clocks banged in your head, huh? That's acutely memorable production. I had to go with the obvious choice.

Good point about Red, I agree. How about Zepp's Houses Of The Holy? We can consider it a prog album. :D
