If several bands get together in a concert and performed a 2 hour medley of many of my favorites with musicians rotating in and out for the many instruments and sounds involved, I don't think I'd have any problem choosing.

BUT, that's not an option (that I know of). Shine on You Crazy Diamond (the whole thing) is my go-to favorite. One of the few songs I could listen to anytime, anywhere, and repeatedly without tire. It's a fantastic and amazing intro/outro on an already wonderful album. I can't think of another album that ends quite as beautifully.

Revealing Science of God
Heart of the Sunrise
Chamber of 32 Doors
Starless
Islands
Dancing with the Moonlit Knight
Atom Heart Mother
The Count of Tuscany
Metropolis Pt. 1
Octavarium

Revealing the Science of God and Atom Heart Mother are up there for me too.
I am currently digging:

Hawkwind, Rare Bird, Gong, Tangerine Dream, Khan, Iron Butterfly, and all things canterbury and hard-psych. I also love jazz!

Please drop me a message with album suggestions.

Nice pick !! Though I would've gone for 'Gormenghast' myself......

Gormenghast is an absolute favourite of mine as well. The whole album is a masterpiece.

It's so good to see Machine Messiah get some love. It is a personal favourite.

Ever since I discovered Ayreon a few years back, I've been soooooo hooked on Isis and Osiris off the Electric Castle album. So amazing !
 
Echoes from PF also springs to mind, as does The Gates of Delerium by Yes, Starless by KC... we are so blessed as puny humans to be graced with so much wonderful music ! Smile

No way I can decide. I haven't heard much music (at least in comparison to most of the people here), but still there are so many albums/songs I love to death.

"Atom Heart Mother" by Pink Floyd - the first thing by them I ever heard, and discounting singles being played on the radio/TOTP it was the first prog of any kind that I heard.

I have a two-song tie for my favorite, they're The Mars Volta's "Cassandra Gemini", and of course; "Suppers Ready".
