Brain Salad Surgery

non prog is really difficult because there is so much crossover stuff that flirts with both universes ( ie Kate Bush , Supertramp, Muse etc) so trying to think of something that just isn't even prog related is tricky. I think I will go with Bat For Lashes ( the lovely Natasha Khan) so..

It seems to me that most people have chosen prog-related albums as their favourite non-prog album. I specifically excluded prog-related, proto-prog, or anything that I consider to be prog, prog-related, or proto-prog, even though they are not on this site.
 
For me, choosing a favourite album from the prog-related category is difficult as there are so many to choose from, and none rise much above others that might be considered. However, I will tentatively choose "Master Of Reality" (Black Sabbath).
 
 
 
 
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Prog: In poll position there are: VdGG: The Least/H to He/ Pawn Hearts

Proto-Prog: Abbey Road and The Doors

Not Prog: Springsteen: Born To Run and Nick Cave No More Shall We Part
Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

Really cool choice all around.  I remember when I first heard Countdown to Ecstasy.  It was a total revelation.

Yeah man, I've been listening to that a lot lately. Songs like Pearl of the Quarter and Razor Boy, just too good. No weak song either. Truly a special album.

Katy Lied is a darn good album, but I slightly prefer The Royal Scam(which is my second favorite SD album right behind Countdown). I hold all of their first 7 albums in very high regard though. As I've said many times already on this forum, I'd put those 7 albums against the first 7 by ANY other music artist ever.

As a string of seven the only other one I think competes is the big seven from the Moodies.  

Even my beloved Rush has a dip here and there.

Interesting,
For non-prog, three Black Sabbath albums have now been cited.  I don't think I would have predicted so much appreciation for Sabbath among progheads.
