Procol Harum's greatest record was 1977's "Something Magic"

Gentle Giant's "The Missing Piece" is one of their very best albums....

Genesis-Trespass is better than any Genesis record before or after it...

Some of mine:

Tales is the Best Yes Album
Shine On > Echoes
Time and a Word > The Yes Album
A Momentary Lapse of Reason is a great record
Think of Me with Kindness is the best song Gentle Giant ever did
Mike Oldfield's Incantations is a 10/10 Record
'It' is a great album closer

Granted, most of these aren't super hot, but I'm sure many of you have some! (I'm looking at you Paul with your lack of VDGG love!)

Nice, I disagree with all your takes...Some of mine: 

The Final Cut is a great record
Selling England By The Pound is boring
In The Court of The Crimson King is NOT the first prog album

To be honets, I like Leapse, but it has the worst track ever recorded by Pink Floyd, worse than A Spanish Piece
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

I don't think this is a hot take in any way. Thumbs Up

Glass Hammer's 2023 album Arise is a 5-star masterpiece!

Luciano Cilio's Dialoghi del Presente is the best Italian album I know. And I do know the classics...

Going with the contrarian nature of this thread I would highlight their album Three Cheers For The Broken Hearted also. It's the best sort of 'pop' album you can ever listen to. I love it!
