Well, of those on the list, I would have to say Piper with Days a close second.  However, my favorite 1967 album is Jefferson Airplane's After Bathing at Baxter's.
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

Although I do second the shout to After Bathing At Baxter's.

I do believe that forerunner of Indo-jazz fusion/Raga prog , Joe Harriott/John Mayer's Indo Jazz Double Quintet released their first album that year.

Pepper!
 
1967 was the year popular music took whole new directions paved by the albums listed and others. But had The Beatles not participated in the musical experiments, fewer bands would have followed that path.
 
BTW, Lumpy Gravy was '68.

^ that's an interesting point.. considering how much breakthrough music there was that year - 'Thoughts of Emerlist Davjack', 'Smiley Smile', 'Axis: Bold As Love', many others - it's debatable the impact Sgt. Pepper's had on progressive rock that the Beatle's hadn't already had. I agree the Beatles work before Pepper's was crucial, but by 1967 the impact on Prog was presumably already there, Pepper's influence being more on standard rock and pop more than Prog itself. Emerson, Fripp, Pink Floyd, all had already begun sewing their prog/psych oats before or during 1967. Just a thought.

Wasn't S F Sorrow released that year ? There are some that contend that it was the catalyst for Pete Townshend's Tommy .

S F Sorrow was released the following year, but still pre-dates Tommy
Grocer Jack (an Excerpt from a Teenage Opera) was relesed in1967 - which could have been the first rock-opera if hadn't taken 29 years to finish.
 
 Kites by Simon Dupree and the Big Sound was also release in1967...

I voted for Piper at the Gates of Dawn but I'm a big fan of Forever Changes by Love and The Velvet Underground and Nico.

United States of America's only album released this year is great too. 
Over land and under ashes
In the sunlight, see - it flashes
Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me
Don't believe in me

Strange Days by The Doors was released in 67 too, was it not ?
 
If so, it gets my vote.  If not, The Doors does.
