1979 to 1982: 3 in and 3 out of PA albums per year. Try to vote for two albums per year, one from A to C and one from D to F.

Another poll, another day, and like a very recent poll by another, this also has Dün and Eskaton, having two of my very favourite albums and was going to... Thanks to my list at awesome prog, these are almost too easy to put together. Even if they have albums that I have put in other polls, I want to be true to myself by posting some of what has been truly "awesome" to me. Sometimes I like to try to step outside my tastes to hopefully get comments and maybe positive feedback from people who don't usually post in my polls due to lack of interest, but even then I tend to get the same people who comment. Many thanks to those who take the time to comment (if not unduly negative), it genuinely is much appreciated, and for any chance to discuss music with others.

This poll contains six of my favourite albums from each of these years. Three albums from each year (the A to C choices) are included in Prog Archives' database and three albums (the D to F choices) are not included in PA.

This poll is multiple choice. Please try to vote for one album from the A to C selection for each year and one album from the D to F selection for each year. Please list your choices in a post. If you can't vote for that many, that's fine, but only one vote per year from each A to C section and only one vote per year from each D to F section.

For instance, from 1979, vote for Western Culture OR Heresie OR Stand By (just one of those) AND additionally, if you can, vote for Replicas OR Unknown Pleasures OR 154 (just one of those), and do that for each year if you can. So, one in PA and one out of PA if you can (if you like and know one in PA and out of PA for the years). If you know hardly enough, that's fine, vote for what you know while not voting for more than one in the A to C list for each year and not more than one in the D to F list for each year.

And I super appreciate if people who vote also list their choices. Reading and hopefully interacting with others due to their posts (although I often avoid commenting if I anticipate not getting a rseponse back or think that my response will not be appreciated or just feel I have nothing of potential value to say) mean more to me than looking at the votes.
