"Fairy Tales" by Mother Gong is a great album from 1979. Unfortunately there is a flaw in the YouTube version of the longest track "Wassilissa" a certain section appears twice while another is left out.

I would mention "Phallus Dei" by Amon Düül 2 as an album that came out the year I was born.

Im going to cheat slightly, Coltrane - A Love Supreme was recorded in 1964 and released in Feb 65, otherwise I'll take Mingus - Mingus x5

Nas - Illmatic
Soundgarden - Superunknown
Hole - Live Through This
Dream Theater - Awake
Cake - Motorcade of Generosity
Stratovarius - Dreamspace

The list goes on... 1994 was a great year for music, it seems
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

Uh,

Rust Never Sleeps
Off the Wall
Breakfast in America
Damn the Torpedoes
Journey Through the Secret Life of Plants
Joe's Garage, Acts I, II and III
London Calling


And Gary Numan and the Tubeway Army's Replicas and Talking Head's Fear of Music. I'd personally include David Bowie's Lodger amongst great mainstream picks.

For me as a RIO/Avant Prog lover, 1979 is an incredible year.

1985.  Plenty to choose but will go with Prefab Sprout's Steve McQueen.
