Ow, unfair - 1957 - such a bad year  I'll pick Blast The Human Flower by Danielle Dax from the year my daughter was born instead. |
 A good solution for people born in the pre-prog age. From by daughter's birth year I'd choose Journey into the Morn by Iona.

Unfortunately, I was born prior to the Prog Rock era. I will have to go with a couple of GREAT Jazz albums:
1. Sketches Of Spain - Miles Davis
2. Giant Steps - John Coltrane
3. Free Jazz - Ornette Coleman
4. The Incredible Jazz Guitar of Wes Montgomery
5. Rights Of Swing - Phil Woods
If I had to choose 1 album, I would go with Coltrane.

Glad I'm not the only one on PA who likes this band, although I think the pinnacle of their career was Seven and the Ragged Tiger, but I guess you weren't born in 1983.  |

I don't own any 1962 albums but had a look at Wikipedia
an impressive list of artists
I guess the one artist that stands that that had a big influence on prog (especially Keith Emerson)
Time Further Out - Dave Brubeck
(must be about time I had something pre 1966 in my collection so I ordered it)

that's neat, Richard, and thanks for the 1962 in music link-read it, and there's a lot of facts i didn't know about the death of conductor Bruno Walter is still very disturbing to me,though i have known about it for a long time- the man means a real lot to me with his surviving books and recordings did not know that Brubeck influenced prog-interesting
