I have three family members all born in years ending in five. So I decided to pick five from their birth years just for fun. This year is a huge year for birthdays as my oldest, she just turned 40, my youngest, he will turn 30 this July, and their mom will turn 60 this month. So five from 1965, 1985 and 1995. I tried to offer some variety, hopefully you have a favourite among these 15 albums. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

One vote by the way. I have no idea at this point who I'm voting for. I will return. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I really like the Art Zoyd, Present, and Herbie Hancock albums, and like some others, but it is especially between the Present and Art Zoyd for me. While both have been particular faves of mine over the past 20 years, that Art Zoyd is surely the one that means the most to me. Le mariage du ciel et de l'enfer is one of my very, very favourite albums. An absolute top tier album for me. ------------- "Questions are a burden to others; answers a prison for oneself" (The Prisoner, 1967). |

| I vote Art Zoyd here, but I also really love Rubber Soul, Nucleus, The Sky Moves Sideways, The Wake, and Le Poison Qui Rend Fou. |

Anekdoten - Nucleus ------------- quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond |

Such a dark album that takes me places. And I agree an absolute top tier record for me as well. The last of their chamber styled albums before going more into electronics. Great pick! ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Yeah buddy! The organ is nasty on this one, great Italian vocals too. A 5 star record in my world. I got their new one and only the keyboardist is left, but I'm looking forward to it. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I ended up voting Art Zoyd as well. It's a compelling record. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I almost included Metal Fatigue for '85, I'm sure it would have got some votes. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

| IQ for me. I was very depressed and fed up in general with life and the horrid state of rock music at the time but then IQ come along with this raw almost punk like approach and kicked some life into the dead genre. The Wake still remains for me one of the greatest post 70's prog albums. IQ have a few actually but I will have to get over just how weak their latest effort is (although still better than 99% of what is out there, even on auto pilot they are still somehow great) |
