Not my first, but one of the first I bought and heard after jumping on the prog wagon.
My first was something by JT (can't remember which one 'cause I bought all their early ones pretty much at the same time), if Led Zeppelin's IV doesn't count that is.

I've slept since then......I have no clue what my first prog album was. In the Wake probably took me 25yrs to like it as much as I do, which is not saying much, but I still spin it probably 2x per month.
Good thing Wake wasn't my first prog album, I don't know if I would have ever gotten into the genre. Then again, maybe I would love it now.
The first prog album I heard must have been something by Frank Zappa when I was four or five. I distinctly remember hearing Hot Rats at that age. The first album I listened to with the awareness that it's prog was either Foxtrot or SEBTP. And the first one I bought was Fragile.
Nope, a recent purchase in fact. My first was Aqualung followed by a string of Dream theater albums to feed my then, new Prog addiction. Protest the Hero came after that, and I found I was listening to a lot of Prog Metal that year - 2009. I've only been into the 70's stuff for about 2 years.

[QUOTE=thellama73]I think by first he means "favorite." In any case, it is by far my least favorite KC album I own (well, Thrak... no, still Poseidon.)
[/QUOTE)
no, by 1st mean the 1st i obtained, as a album of progressive music,
my favourite is the Lamb, but my first prog album is I the Wake of the Poseidon, the 1st i spent my money on, and the first i listend to on my own in my room at the age of 18
The first real prog album was Atom Heart Mother (I'm not sure if I should consider Piper and ASoS really prog, they're more of psychedelic), but I didn't know it was prog. The really first prog album for me would be 2112.
