Many great albums here, I'll vote for Eloy.
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

I have voted for Floyd, but Ocean would have been my second choice. I think it's the best Eloy's album.
Yup....Ocean is a killer album and my favorite by Eloy.
Cool

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

As I like to say - 'The cocktail rhythms on Uncle Arthur's Yamaha organ' There's a story that goes with this but it's long-winded..........
.....the short version - a comedy skit show has an old man character (Arthur, played by Glen Robbins) who's always wrapping up his segment by going over to his organ a pressing a button and out comes a Bossa-Nova or Samba rhythm.....   

LOL Nice little outro

Just for the record, outside of Journey, I've never ever come across a successful usage of this device. Seriously. I'm not quite sure how it works for that album, but it does - in spades!

I felt like that for a long time as well. Now I've just given up on them.

To be fair, I think Atom Heart Mother is one of the best albums ever, but seeing this poll, it's fair to say it doesn't need any help from me.

Jurassic Shift

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.

OOOOH! Fragments of Light is tremendous ! Lot of good choices though, Journey would be #2
I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Hard choice.....and like Progmatic said those are not necessarily their best nor my favorite ones.....but  I flipped a coin and Atom heart Mother won.

Tough list.
It was a hard choice between Jade Warrior and Eloy for top spot. Went with Eloy. Almost all the groups here are good but they all have albums i prefer over the ones listed here.
My top 6:

Eloy
Jade Warrior
Sensations Fix
Ozric Tentacles
Hawkwind
Floyd
PROGMATIC

Amazing list! There's a lot of great albums in there but I can't deny the genius of Atom Heart Mother so here it is.
