I'm going with the majority on this one: Discipline.

Moving Pictures

Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.



Keep Calm And Listen To The Music…

Peter Hammill - Sitting Targets
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Man.  I sat here wanting to click the button for KC, but just can't deny a record with YYZ, Red Barchetta, Tom Sawyer...  It's just too amazing.  The continuing progression of a great band.
Discipline is incredible, but due to Belew's voice (which I love) comes off as slightly derivative of a certain new wave band he had toured with prior. It does contain Frame By Frame, Matte Kudasai and Thela Hun Ginjeet however.
I also enjoy Saga(perhaps their best effort), Zappa, ELO and Camel from this year.
The Genesis and Styx records have some fantastic tunes on them, but aren't quite as consistent as others in their catalog.
