I was surprised no one has polled this yet.  In light of the fact that 1967 is 40 years old now.
 
These are the titles I have in my collection that were either created or released then.
Most of these are acceptable as progressive to this site, except for Miles Davis.
 
I think '67 was the year progressive rock really started to coalesce.
 
Really interested to hear about any albums I don't have but should have listed from 1967.
 
 
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Favourite from the list is Safe as Milk.

Parsons Sound which was recorded between 66-68 [a substantial proportion of material from '67], but only saw a double disc release in 2001 on Subliminal Sounds. This record would easily be my pincal album of this proto-era. Probably one of the best/historically important albums in the heavy psych domain. For me this album was far ahead of its times, pathing the way from many of the progresive psych bands of the last 40 years. In particular the Japanese, Finnish and Swedish scenes.

Review:

http://www.aquariusrecords.org/bin/search.cgi/artist=parson%20sound

Another album that played its part in Avant-garde, free improvisation in prog is AMM - AMMMusic ['67]. The album, is one of the first documentations of free from improvisation and noise within the relams of rock.

I voted for the Ponty album although it is unclear from my research that this is really a completely a 1967 recording or release, the vinyl I have says it is.  I suspect that my favorite bits are not.

Cool, I have some Hendrix but not that one.  My first CD was Live at Winterland.

Whilst Pepper rapidly faded, Love's Forever Changes has become my out and out favourite from the period - most certainly reinforced seeing  Arthur Lee perform the timeless music from this album at Leicester a few years back.

Do I get some kind of reward for that?  Not my favorite Miles album, but really good progressive jazz.

Even though I've been listening to Days of Future Passed a lot, I have to give it to Sgt. Pepper's. That albu mis groundbreaking and just well done.
