	I suppose I will go with the flock on this occasion in favour of Close to the Edge, but in case all votes for Yes are used out, I would go for the PFM Edited by Darious - September 16 2014 at 02:46

	Lots of faves here but as usual for me the top spot is a continuous battle between Yes and Tull. TAAB is higher on my Tull list than CTTE is on my Yes list, so I will give it to Tull.

	Excluding Miles Davis's Kind of Blue - it's not prog, it's straight up jazz, and if he'd never gone electric fusion, that album wouldn't even be here on PA - in order: Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here Yes - Close To The Edge Rush - Moving Pictures Supertramp - Crime Of The Century Premiata Forneria Marconi - Per Un Amico Tangerine Dream - Rubycon King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King Caravan - In The Land Of Grey And Pink

	Of these, I've spun Rubycon by far the most, and for good reason. I'll give it my vote

	The Road of Bones. The more I listen, the more utterly amazing it gets.

	Wow, that was enormously tough to choose between In the Court of the Crimson King and Close to the Edge... Both are monumental to me... But had to go with Close to the Edge for my vote... And I'd like to suggest another entry in this list if I may: Moon safari's Lover's End Pt. III: Skellefteå Serenade. I absolutely adore this song! Edited by Cylli Kat - September 15 2014 at 15:49
