Not sure what's the point here Darryl ... I like a lot of these, some much more than the others, so basically should we vote for every album we like? I think maybe it would be more interesting in finding out what's people's favourite album?
Anyway may favourite is Magma but I can vote for SM, Harmonium, FZ, Aphrodites Child, Yes, Pink Floyd, Motorpsycho, Miles Davis, Ayreon, Genesis and Focus.

I first misread this as being do able albums. 
The only one that I have and can't stand is Captain Beefheart - Trout Mask Replica.

For some reason, the poll only allowed me one vote so I went for the best one of all: Tales. There are some great albums on this list, but nothing comes close to Tales. Those who disagree are free to meet me at dawn somewhere with a weapon of their choosing.

From the (great) list 1) Lamb 2) Oceans 3) Incantations
Not from the list and nearly as excellent as those above: 1) Physical Graffiti - Zep 2) Echolyn - s/t 3) Full Power - Big Big Train 4) Marbles - Marillion
The 'why didn't they make it a single album award' goes to The Beatles/White album

I suppose it's no surprise that Genesis, Floyd, and Yes received the most votes but it's nice to see all of them got some votes. Went with Chicago 2...not a particularly proggy work but it has a huge sentimental influence on me from the college days.

Subterranea by a very wide margin. It's the album that The Lamb could have been.
