Progressive Rock Album List-1974

I share a number of entries in common with you, Doug. I have a really strong for my tastes top 50 or so at Awesome Prog (great year) and with so many albums I love (and more not listed there) the numbering is rather meaningless on the whole. I could shuffle at will.

Tangerine Dream's Phaedra is the standout for me, although I like Dzyan's and Froese's very much too as well as others like Galactic Explorers and Terje Rypdal, and I like the Triumvirat. Not keen on that PFM; love PFM's original early Italian albums.

My top 20 at AP: https://awesomeprog.com/release-polls/pa/aoty-1974/users/Logan If you get the chance, love to see more lists by people there through the years. I'm working on the early 60s now.

Phaedra > Aqua > Dimple > Nektar

Triumvirat out of these. 

Following my recent Progressive Rock 1975 Poll, here is a list of my favorites from 1974. Pick a favorite! My choice is, again, Triumvirat, with "Illusions On A Double Dimple". There are a little less to choose from here compared with the 1975 list, as a fair number of groups I like did not release anything in '74.....
