Considering how thin 1992 was for me, 1993 was a bumper year by comparison

Franco Battiato - Caffe de la Paix
Dead can Dance - Into the Labyrinth
Eloy - Chronicles I - I normally only include original albums but this is just an incredible rerecording of some of their best songs
Steve Hackett - Guitar Noir
Kerrs Pink - Journey on the Inside
Lethe - Nymphae
Red Jasper - Midsummer Night's Dream

Promoted to get to 10
Pete Bardens - Further than You Know
Fellowship - Sorciere et le Villageois
Fit and Limo - Angel Gopher

Well someone's got a Janet Jackson album in their list.

I don't know what to say to that. OuchLOL

The Division Bell was 1994, otherwise I would second your nomination 😊

I Knew that!!!  Angry

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
