Lot of good stuff. My vote goes to Ayreon. The Human Equation is still my favorite from Arjen's huge discography.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

I feel about the same: both Part the Second and Unfolded Like Staircase are top 10 for me. Hard to vote with MotW, Discipline and Klaus Schulze as plausible candidate. I give the edge to MotW today.

I vote for the following six (in the order of appearance in the list):
 
Discipline: Unfolded Like Staircase (142)
Phideaux: Snowtorch (151)
Eloy - Ocean (152)
Dun - Eros (155)
Peter Gabriel - 3 [Melt] (162)
Maudlin of the Well - Part the Second (164)

This time there's five clear standouts for me:

Soft Machine - Third
Klaus Schulze: Mirage (he would have gotten my vote with only Timewind as well)
Arti E Mestieri - Tilt (Immagini per un orecchio)
Dun - Eros
Moving Gelatine Plates - The World of Genius Hans

-there's so many wonderful songs on Days of Future Passed, but I don't think the "light classical music" interludes has aged well. So I struggle a little with it as a full album listen.

So, I've gone for:

Eloy (obviously!)
Moodies... what a splendid album that still is!
Transatlantic... my fave of theirs
Klaus Schulze
Soft Machine... not a huge fan, but this is the one I like the best?


20 years ago, I'd have gone for Lateralus, but these days not so much.

I want to take this opportunity to point out that Hiromi is one of, if not the best, pianist out there right now. Her and Tigran Hamasyan. I saw the latter recently, who killed it (somehow able to sing his spiritual-like melodies over the incredibly complicated parts he's written, not to mention the bonkers-level hand independence you have to have to play them alone). I will be going to a Hiromi concert at the end of the month (April), and I'm so excited! Her improvisational skills are reverent of the various and varied styles that influence her (stride, ragtime, funk, bebop, post-bop, rock, modernist, impressionist, prog, traditional Japanese, etc.), yet she often creates something unique with them. And with such joy! I hope to be half as talented a pianist/composer as these cats someday.

This collection is a bit weaker for me than many other I've seen. Eros is my favourite here. Other voteworthy  albums include Timewind, Maltid, Third, Ocean.

Birds and Buildings, Solaris, Discipline, Eloy, and Ayreon. I hope to record a soundtrack for armpits that smell like magic markers.
