Here is a list of my favorite progressive albums of 1975; pick a favorite among them! I have included jazz rock as that is "under the umbrella" of progressive music. Some are, admittedly, pretty obscure. My favorite is, as no surprise, Triumvirat's "Spartacus". Have a go at it!

I don't know which one to vote for among my five favorites here. They are all so great in (very) different ways:

Steve Hackett - Voyage of the Acolyte
Hawkwind - Warrior On The Edge Of Time
Terje Rypdal - Odyssey
Nektar - Recycled
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

Ten additional favorites of mine:

Eno - Another Green World
Van der Graaf Generator - Godbluff
Mike Oldfield - Ommadawn
Hatfield and the North - The Rotters' Club
Tangerine Dream - Rubycon
Kraftwerk - Radio-Aktivität
Lard Free - I'm Around About Midnight
Klaus Schulze - Timewind
Goblin - Profondo Rosso
Area - Crac!

From the list, Gentle Giant with Mahavisnu Orchestra followed closely behind. Not on the list of albums I think highly of from 1975 would include Camel's Snow Goose, Song for America by Kansas and Jeff Beck's Blow by Blow.

I went with Soft Machine but Steve Hackett, Terje Rypdal and Hawkwind are right there too.
Godbluff is another favourite of mine from this year.

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson
