Even when you take away all the big boys you are still left with some great albums.

That Supersister album is perfection. One of my Top 5 Canterbury records. 
Crushed like a rose in the riverflow.

Beggar's Opera-Act One-an under-rated classical rock gem.

I have 13 of these titles listed here, and my pick (amongst some stiff competition - MGP, SMM, JDdG, Supersister, Spring) goes to Ash Ra Tempel's phenomenal debut.

Comus First Utterance is a masterpiece. Violin
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.

One of the best years in music.  I couldn't reach anything resembling a real decision so I just voted for Popol Vuh.

Love that album

Curved Air or Wigwam ? This is the question.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Lots of very good albums, but none really stand out for me Unhappy I voted Ash Ra Tempel (followed by Matching Mole, Faust, Comus, Popol Vuh, etc.) Smile

I was just going by what year it was listed on PA. I don't think I've heard it but I have heard their next three albums.

Matching Mole over Faust over 2/3 of the list.
