Another vote for Chris Squire's Fish Out of Water.
I also found Focus' Hamburger Cocerto to be their only five star work with the rest only scratching at 3 stars.

I forgot Arkham. I made it my avatar just so I'd remember this beautiful album, but I forgot anyway.
I know it's not objectively amazing but it seems to strike a chord with me.

Yep Yep this is a great album. Fans of Steve Hillage; hell fans of prog in general need to seek this out. Its worth it.
My vote for One Amazing Album--------------

What do you mean? One amazing album and the rest no good, or bands who made just one (amazing) album?

Both. I meant bands with only one good album regardless they did anything besides it or not.

It's killer. In fact, going out on a limb, I think I'd call it
the best Canterbury album of all.
I remember reading about it a lot back in the day when it was a raaaa-are vinyl
album and it was changing hands for hundreds of dollars, so when I
stumbled on the CD rerelease a few years ago, I was fully prepared for
it to be horribly overrated on account of its obscurity. So, my
expectations weren't all that high, but I was blown away. It may well
be among my personal top 50 of all time.

Titus Groan made only one album - and it's a must for anyone interested in tracing the roots for prog-metal. Fuzzy Duck's one and only album (which is labeled at this site as art rock) is also worth listening. Outside prog, Bakerloo's album is a fantastic piece of late 60s blues-rock.
