Your Top 12 Dutch Prog Albums

It's time to Focus more Light on the subject of Dutch Prog by selecting our own personal Top 12 albums from a Cargo-load of Dutch masters. Welcome to the Machine, as they're just one of the 57 varieties of  artists from the classic golden years of Dutch Prog (some of whom disappeared without Trace after releasing just one album). There's an Avalanche of great music to Sustain the interest, varying from the gentle folk of Chimera and  Flairck, to the jazzy sound of Alquin, the symphonic splendour of Earth and Fire and the hard rocking sound of Golden Earring. Vive la Differences! It's all here. It turned out to be an almost impossible task to choose a Top 10, so the ideal Solution seemed to be to Spin it out and make it a Top 12 to give this poll more Scope. There's a vast Pantheon of Ekseptional Dutch Prog out there just waiting to be explored on the internet and it's all available totally Tax Free!

^ No, it's simply that there aren't enough hours in the day to listen to everything and I've mainly been featuring Dutch artists from the golden era in my Classic Clog Prog Blog. I'm currently on the letter "F" for Focus, so I still have a long way to go to reach the end of the alphabet. 

This is tricky, an entire country's worth of music! Lots and lots to pick from and there's a lot from the 1970s I haven't listened to yet.
