Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Once again, you're off floating in outer space.

1. Only the first album is pre-ITCOTCK
2. I've never seen anyone on PA put down early Santana and its rhythms.
3. Usually critical praise ends at the seventh album, Borboletta.

A pitty because Moonflower is excellent, and Amigos is still enjoyable.
 
I agree with the other two points.

Rubber Soul
Aftermath
Pet Sounds
Revolver
 
Sgt Pepper especially "with "Mr. Kite" and "A Day in the Life" both songs I class as Progressive Rock. While not the first rock concept album I think the concept  of the alter-ego band and linking of songs just revolutionized the concept album in rock music and put the concept album in rock on the map.
 
The Who Tommy ok not the first rock-opera but it's a great album and it also help popularize the  rock opera.

"The Cheerful Insanity of Giles, Giles and Fripp"

Otherwise, I'd have to put up a ton of sh*te like "The Monkees"!!  

The Association had some rather lovely, pre-Yes vocal harmonizations that apparently inspired Yes to some degree, I've read where Jon Anderson once recorded a nice version of "Never, My Love."  I'd like to hear that.
