I just wanted to try a fairly random poll except that they are all albums I like, all are in my AwesomeProg yearly charts, and all are included in Prog Archives, and this is arranged chronologically with the years 1968 to 1992 being covered.
Vote for up to five of these albums that are known and liked (or more if one really wants to) and please comment on your selections. Obviously this is representative of my tastes so I would expect various people at PA not to know and/or like any of these albums.

Please do mention any albums you like, and I do hope people will try to vote for five albums if they like that many. As I often say, I love the more detailed posts, care more about the posts than the votes themselves, but of course those do take more effort to prepare and so I don't expect it of people. Commonly I have too much time on my hands.

I've just noticed it's a multiple votes poll.  My bad... I will edit my post soon.

^ Oh, no worries. Some just don't like to multiple votes and voting for multiples is optional. I just like to get to know more of what people know and like. I do have a pretty boring life.

No worries, I know you like later Dead Can Dance and other Kate Bush. And I have not been feeling down or insecure about that, by the way, I mention just in case.
