I like all the albums listed that I have about equally.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Went Pawn Hearts here, what a revelation when I first heard it, I felt like what was possible in music reached new levels and it eventually lead me to avant prog. To this day it is still perfection to these ears. Probably the classic album that has stayed the freshest in my mind.

Well we agree on Animals & that DSOTM isn't in their top 3 but The Wall & The Final Cut are two of my lowest ranked PF albums. TFC is the only one I actually got rid of as I just couldn't listen to it any more. I'd go Animals, WYWH, Ummagumma, Meddle, AHM, Piper.

King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King

Genesis - Selling England by the Pound

Camel - Mirage

Van der Graaf Generator - Pawn Hearts

Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick

Yes - Close to the Edge

Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon

Can - Tago Mago

Tool - Lateralus

Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom

Despite being a big Soft Machine fan, I could never get into that Wyatt album. I like some of his other albums though.

Close To The Edge followed very "closely" by Thick As A Brick.

My two favorite LP's of all-time.

I'm with you on SEBTP.

Funny, I find Genesis boring except for Selling England.

I don't find any Genesis boring from Trespass to Wind and Wuthering.

CTTE > SEBTP > ITCOTKC > PH > TAAB > Mirage

Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution
