^ Those are my two favourite King Crimson albums and either of those could have made my list. I just have not been listening to King Crimson as much the last few years, but my tastes can be cyclical when it comes to the classics. Most of what I listen to is newer to these ears.
Another one in PA list and one out of it taken from another topic -- I went with Bubu before for 1978 and almost went with National Health, this time it's National Health. Prog in PA: 1970: Magma - Kobaïa 1971: Igor Wakhévitch - Docteur Faust 1972: Jean-Claude Vannier - L'enfant assassin des mouches 1973: Can - Future Days 1974: Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom 1975: Cos - Postaeolian Train Robbery 1976: Geinoh Yamashirogumi - Osorezan / Dou no Kenbai 1977: Franco Leprino - Integrati ... Disintegrati 1978: National Health - National Health 1979: The Residents - Eskimo Albums out of PA: 1970: Exuma - Exuma 1971: Egisto Macchi - I futuribili 1972: Ennio Morricone - Cosa avete fatto a Solange? 1973: Mandingo - The Primeval Rhythm of Life 1974: Janko Nilovic - Rythmes Contemporains 1975: Lula Côrtes e Zé Ramalho - Paêbirú 1976: Joni Mitchell - Hejira 1977: Television - Marquee Moon 1978: Nina Hagen Band - Nina Hagen Band 1979: Tubeway Army - Replicas |

I'm going to do this but there are a LOT of tied albums in most of these years, and while I'll pick one for each year, it's gonna be a fairly approximate crapshoot based on how I'm feeling today. Other choices in parentheses: 1970: ELP by ELP (Jesus Christ Superstar) 1971: Fragile by Yes (Nursery Cryme by Genesis, Pawn Hearts by VdGG) 1972: Thick as a Brick by Jethro Tull (Foxtrot by Genesis, Close to the Edge by Yes) 1973: The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd (Io Sono Nato Libero by Banco del Mutuo Soccorso, Selling England By The Pound by Genesis) 1974: Crime of the Century by Supertramp (Mirage by Camel, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway by Genesis, Relayer by Yes) 1975: Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd (The Snow Goose by Camel, Si on avait besoin d’une cinquième saison by Harmonium) 1976: Moonmadness by Camel (A Trick of the Tail by Genesis, Romantic Warrior by Return to Forever) 1977: A Farewell to Kings by Rush (Animals by Pink Floyd) 1978: Hemispheres by Rush 1979: Heresie by Univers Zero (Western Culture by Henry Cow) |

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.
