go with Lily & Maria. a wonderful but sadly little known album


I would need to hear it, of course. There it is, it seems I found it on Spotify.


Actually, that was a very nice listen. Thanks.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

1967
Having an affinity to all thing Emerson drives me to the Nice - The Thoughts of Emerlist Davjack.
However, The Moody Blues - Day of Future Past is a solid contender as is The Doors - The Doors, and The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

I'll Pick
The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

1968
Iron Butterfly - In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida

1969
King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King
No contest.
However, The Moody Blues - On the Threshold Of A Dream and The Who - Tommy sneaks in just under it.
Thank you for supporting independently produced music

Seems we have the same taste in 60s prog.

1967 The Nice - The Thoughts Of Emerlist Davjack
1968 Led Zeppelin - II The Crazy World of Arthur Brown -s/t
1969 Colosseum - Valentyne Suite

EDIT - made a mistake as the Led Zep second album was of course released in 1969. my favourite album of 1968 is easily Love - Forever Changes but I'm not sure that counts as 'Prog'?

I struggle a bit with 1968 to find a prog album I enjoy. Beatles -White Album is not too my taste. Arthur Brown - The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown is okay so I will include that instead.
