I'd find this impossible as I'm 67 and some years (1950s and part of the 80s and 90s especially) I 'd find it hard to pick anything. So here goes with a selection of years from my life:
1967 Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band 1971 The Yes Album 1972 Argus - Wishbone Ash 1973 Dark Side Of The Moon 1974 There's The Rub - Wishbone Ash 1975 Wish You Were Here 1976 Welcome To Paradise - Randy Stonehill 1977 Rain Dances - Camel 1978 Dire Straits 1st album 1979 Slow Train Coming - Bob Dylan 1980 Making Movies - Dire Straits 1985 Brothers In Arms - Dire Straits 1989 Here To Hear - Wishbone Ash 1999 Metropolis Part 2: Scenes From A Memory - Dream Theater 2000 SMPTe - Transatlantic 2001 Bridge Across Forever - Transatlantic 2005 ? - Neal Morse 2007 Sola Scriptura - Neal Morse 2009 The Whirlwind - Transatlantic 2012 Flying Colors - 1st album 2015 Written In The Stars - Martin Turner ex Wishbone Ash 2016 The Similitude Of A Dream - Neal Morse Band 2019 Jesus Christ The Exorcist - Neal Morse 2021 Innocence and Danger - Neal Morse Band 2022 Troika - D'Virgilio Morse and Jennings

I was born in the perfect year for music: 1959 - just old enough to have lived through the whole of the 1960's and still young enough now to enjoy the marvellous, never-ending breadth of music available on the Internet - and most importantly of all, just the right age to fully appreciate prog in the early 1970's.
  1959: Les Baxter - Barbarian - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_koMB9IQLBgYTunrx0l_iGZUUWUEGjJbYs 1960: Etta James - At Last! - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLa3HlKFsnLvZ1vfFn34kcWJXsGevI_mPE 1961: Henry Mancini - Breakfast at Tiffany's - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_npX_aYZvAiXaZ44654beffslpSQhnTrE0 2023: YES - Mirror to the Sky - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mdLFJt9iPnV0i5cqbPQzOA3-wD3VEgJxAI have a few gaps to fill in.

Well, I don't believe all younger prog fans are into it because of their parents nor do I think they are all into the post rock/ metal end of it but a lot of them are and they do seem to out number the older fans depending on the band. When I saw Haken there were some older fans but most were younger than me. However, when I saw Ozric Tentacles most there seemed to be really young or getting ready to retire. Lol. I think part of that is because the younger OT fans are jam band fans which appeals to a younger audience while most of the older fans are prog fans who have known about the Ozrics for a while(myself included).

I suppose that's true as when I go to see a 'classic' prog band then most fans seem to be about my age unless they have sons and daughters who come along out of interest. I did go to see Godspeed You Black Emperor a few years ago and was really surprised at how young most of the people there were so perhaps the other strands of prog (ie not 'classic') are a bit different.

I seem to be somewhere in the middle. I'm a spring chicken to you and others and yet a geezer to some younger folks. Prog fans my age are rather rare though because prog was off most people's radar in the eighties.

OK, here we are. I tend to buy albums later than in the year in which they appear, so for 2018 and 2019 the competition was pretty thin and chances are this will change (although the Matmos album is pretty strong; Soft Machine 2018 are quite good but not quite of "top albums of the year" standard). Of 2016 and 2017 I already have more than one album that could have won another earlier year. 1966 Beatles - Revolver 1967 Pink Floyd _ The Piper at the Gates of Dawn 1968 Holger Czukay - Canaxis1969 East of Eden - Mercator Projected 1970 Van Der Graaf Generator - The Least We Can Do Is Wave To Each Other 1971 Can - Tago Mago 1972 Association PC - Erna Morena 1973 Genesis - Genesis Live 1974 Can - Soon Over Babaluma 1975 Tangerine Dream - Rubycon 1976 Van Der Graaf Generator - Still Life 1977 Luciano Cilio - Dialoghi del Presente 1978 Jethro Tull - Heavy Horses 1979 Holger Czukay - Movies 1980 Comsat Angels - Waiting for a Miracle 1981 Comsat Angels - Sleep No More 1982 Kate Bush - The Dreaming 1983 Japan - Oil on Canvas 1984 David Sylvian - Brilliant Trees 1985 Einstuerzende Neubauten - Halber Mensch 1986 Astor Piazzola - New Tango: Zero Hour 1987 Startled Insects - Curse of the Pheronomes 1988 Wim Mertens - Whisper Me 1989 Fred Frith & collaborators - Step Across the Border 1990 Shudder to Think - Funeral at the Movies 1991 Talk Talk - Laughing Stock 1992 Fred Frith - Helter Skelter 1993 Holger Czukay - Moving Pictures 1994 .O.Rang - Herd of Instinct 1995 Scorn - Gyral 1996 Art Zoyd - Faust 1997 Art Zoyd - Häxan 1998 Mark Hollis - Mark Hollis 1999 Tarentel - From Bone to Satellite 2000 Broadcast - The Noise Made by People 2001 Kante - Zweilicht 2002 Art Zoyd - Metropolis 2003 Tied and Tickled Trio - Observing Systems 2004 Radian - Juxtaposition 2005 Jaga Jazzist - What We Must 2006 Barbara Morgenstern - The Grass is Always Greener 2007 Pinback - Autumn of the Seraphs 2008 Jannik Top - Infernal Machina 2009 Svarte Greiner - Knive 2010 Sohrab - A Hidden Place 2011 North Sea Radio Orchestra - I a Moon 2012 Hidden Orchestra - Archipelago 2013 Foals - Holy Fire 2014 Swans - To Be Kind 2015 William D.
