ill go with Camel, as I like the album as a whole, while I like the individual songs from Pink Floyd's



I think the genius of WYWH is the whole, not the songs... Except Shine On, of course.

Kansas does exist, but Masque isn't one of the top 10 highest rated prog albums of 1975. 
 
My vote goes to WYWH, my second-favorite album of all time.

Voted for Gentle Giant. Even better live.
So since I voted, I'll plug a relatively unknown album from this year:
Armaggedon (s/t)

One of my best achievements in life was to find this picture :D

Indeed, I can't believe that Harmonium - Si On Avait Besoin D'Une Cinquieme Saison only gets a couple of vots, when it sits in PA's top 20.
let's just stay above the moral melee

content to be a doer

prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

I might vote for any of these albums. Only the second half of Ommadawn is not on par with the others.
I give my vote to Harmonium because it has the smallest number of votes while PF and VdGG are far ahead.

A very hard choice because it was a very prolific year. WYWH, Snow Goose, Sheherazade and Ommadawn all in the same poll....Then looking better, I see Harmonium, Gentle Giant, Steve Hackett's debut and TD' Rubycon...I'll go with my heart and vote for Camel but there's plenty of 5 stars albums here
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd's best album IMO.
