It's between Interstellar Overdrive and A Saucerful of Secrets for me. Both amazing and genre defining (for Psych, Kraut and Space Rock...). I don't know if I'm able to vote for one over the other.

I like all of them, and my first thought was to go with "Interstellar Overdrive" or "A Saucereful of Secrets", but "Dogs" has been the most significant to me (and I often quote it).
Just to mention one that did not come up and I love, here's Pink Floyd's BBC archives The Embryo:

...but in all honesty, Interstellar has had the deepest impact on me, so I ended up voting for it.

Nice poll, and I agree with Saper here. Those first two tracks in the poll rise above the rest here. I gave A Saucerful Of Secrets it's first vote.
