Statistically (according to ratings I've given albums), 1989 is where prog, for me, died in a ditch and took a few years to be resurrected
 . So plenty of non-PA albums to fill this list!1. Cardiacs - On Land and in the Sea 2. The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses N/A 3. Marillion - Season's End 4. Rush - Presto 5. Fine Young Cannibals - The Raw and the Cooked 6. Tom Petty - Full Moon Fever 7. Tears for Fears - The Seeds of Love 8. Faith No More - The Real Thing 9. Todd Rundgren - Nearly Human Embarassing Guilty Pleasure: Transvision Vamp - Velveteen I'll hand in my prog card now.

So it is. Confused myself because a Billboard award made it re-chart a couple of years later.
In that case I only have a top 9!

1989 was undoubtedly one of my favourite years for music! I was starting to buy lots of albums and go to lots of gigs. Still not properly into prog (didn't even know what it was!), but:
Are You Sitting Comfortably - IQ Seasons' End - Marillion When Dream And Day Unite - Dream Theater Control And Resistance - Watchtower Can't Look Away - Trevor Rabin The Real Thing - Faith No More Eat Me In St. Louis - It Bites Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe Gretchen Goes To Nebraska - King's X And there were many other great rock albums that year too!

This was not a bad year at all, I had to dig far deeper in others. Cardiacs - On Land And In The Sea Art Zoyd - Nosferatu Bill Bruford's Earthworks - Dig? Kate Bush - The Sensual World Legendary Pink Dots - The Golden Age Thinking Plague - In This Life Ozric Tentacles - Pungent Effulgent Oregon - 45th Parallel John Scofield - Flat Out Fred Frith - The Top Of His Head Honorable mention, exciting album, sounds very much prog to me: Vladimir Estragon (incl. Alfred 23 Harth of Cassiber, FM EInheit of the Neubauten) - Three Quarks for Muster Mark Several other very good "semiprog" albums released that year, such as Einstuerzende Neubauten's Haus der Luege. Lounge Lizards. Test Dept., Joe Jackson's Blaze of Glory is quite sophisticated; I also like that Steve Reich album a lot.
