Brain Salad Surgery!

despite Selling England By The Pound is a good album, but Brain Salad Surgery overcomes it (perhaps only because it is mine preferred in the progressive rock:))

There should be a poll making tortorial....
the question was "Choose the most important or favorite album from 1973"
most important and favourite are two completly different things!!!
My favourite album from then is topographic oceans, but by far the more important is darkside
its like the same thing as asking in the same poll, " whats your favorite album or airplane company"
its just not fair, i dont know what to put as my answer...

I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t.

I don´t see Banco´s first album, which is way more imaginative
and has 10 times more creative and original music than "Dark side".
While I can listen to Banco´s first, 3 times in a row, I can listen to
"Dark side" once, only if I skip songs number 2,3, 4 and 5. |
Note: The most popular titles. That
doesn't mean that there couldn't be more imaginative and creative music
made. However, Dark Side Of The Moon is truely original music IMO. And
there isn't anything wrong with that list. It contains the most
well-known and influential albums in history of prog-rock. I, for
instance haven't heard of Banco before.

This one was hard. It comes down to Jethro Tull's A Passion Play (very underrated), Gentle Giant's In a Glass House, and Magma's Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh for me.
I voted for Magma, for making some of the most original music I've ever heard.

Selling England...

One likes to believe
In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion
Of integrity

1973 was the best year for me.
Some of the greatest albums:
Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon
King Crimson - Larks’ Tongues In Aspic
Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells
Jethro Tull - A Passion Play
Genesis - Selling England by the Pound
Emerson Lake & Palmer - Brain Salad Surgery
Yes - Tales from Topographic Oceans
Gentle Giant - In A Glass House
Mahavishnu orchestra - Birds of fire.
How lucky to have it all in collection. Very nice choice of almums Simkim
