Some of your bests are not the bests for me. I prefer Aqualung to Thick As A Brick, I prefer Meddle to Wish You Were Here, I prefer Zeit to Rubycon and I prefer Kontarkhosz to K.A. 
I'm voting for the non-prog album: Kind Of Blue.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Close to the Edge>Kind of Blue>Images and Words.
I am currently digging:

Hawkwind, Rare Bird, Gong, Tangerine Dream, Khan, Iron Butterfly, and all things canterbury and hard-psych. I also love jazz!

Please drop me a message with album suggestions.

Many albums I really love on this list, and some others I don't know yet. However, I must go with Wish you Were Here. I'm kind of dissapointed it's doing so poorly here (as well as Close to the Edge).

Thick as a brick
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

Really don't mind if you sit this one out
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Not crazy about this list. At any rate, from the list I voted for Frank Zappa - Hot Rats.

A very easy vote for Mixtus Orbis as that is the one that I would list as my favourite of its category.  My second choice would be the also excellent  Ash Ra Tempel.

Love Miles Davis, but would rather one of the albums he was included in JRF for had made the list.

Close to the Edge is the winner for me in this poll, but ITCOTCK, Moving Pictures, and WYWH are all way not far behind. Honorable mention to Jethro Tull's TAAB, who needs a couple more listens for me.
