	That year is surprisingly stacked! Today I'll take: 10. Beggar's Opera. Act One 09. Atomic Rooster. Death Walks Behind You 08. Gentle Giant. s/t 07. T2. It'll All Work Out in Boomland 06. King Crimson. In the Wake of Poseidon 05. Emerson, Lake & Palmer. s/t 04. Van der Graaf Generator. The Least We Can Do is Wave to Each Other 03. Genesis. Trespass 02. Van der Graaf Generator. H to He Who Am the Only One 01. King Crimson. Lizard HM: Black Widow. Sacrifice Cressida. s/t Pink Floyd. Atom Heart Mother Rare Bird. As Your Mind Flies By Raw Material. s/t Okay, so pretty much any album between #2 to #8 deserves TOP3 and WOULD get there on another day. I'm constantly changing my mind on VDGG's internal battle, for example, and there was time I vouched for Gentle Giant's debut to be their best. Loads of five star albums in there. T2 always makes my day, although they left my heavy rotation a decade ago, similar to Atomic Rooster - a band I almost considered equal to Uriah Heep in high school. Also a great year for less touted bands, Cressida, Rare Bird, Beggar's Opera, it's all gold - and I still left out fringe prog stuff, i.e. Santana, Lucifer's Friend, Miles... FAT YEAR
