Don't know, this album only has 23 ratings so it getting 300+ here is too funny and reinforces how useless some polls can be.

Who'd I vote for? Nektar of course! Maybe one day I'll even listen to them...

Per Un Amico... find me one flaw on that album... other than the relatively short 30 odd minute length of the album.

Obscured by Clouds is a highly underrated album by Pink Floyd.

multiple votes option activated...or,as Ansen would say,This poll is dead.

Yes, but... I can't imagine anyone voting 300 times in a row to win a prog poll... That would be too close to the prog negative stereotype...



and is that so abnormal here?

The use of multiple votes has rendered this poll completely meaningless. An album which is currently 365th in the Top 500 is beating an album which is in 10th place.

1972 also was the year "Känguru" (Guru Guru), "Carnival in Babylon" (Amon Düül 2), "Father, Son and Holy Ghost" (Embryo) and "Ege Bamyasi" (Can) appeared; for me it is a tough choice between "Ege Bamyasi" and "Känguru".

1972 was a wonderful year of prog but multiple voting brings rather hilarious results, as always.

Almost all albums on the list are great, I am not familiar with the rest.

Per un amico, Foxtrot, Close to the edge and Thick as a Brick.

I couldn't have voted if you didn't allow multiple votings.

RIP in bossa nova heaven.
