I got very sick from COVID (again) and am making a very slow recovery -- really messed up my lungs. Activities like this do rather pass the time. I was inspired to do make this poll due to Trevor's (essexboyinwales) recent topic My favourite 10 albums from the all-time top 100 (CLICK)

In this topic I went with 25 (no more than one per artist) from PA's top 100 as I could not do it with just ten, and even then I left out several albums I really wanted to include, like Jethro Tull's Aqualung and Museo Rosenbach's Zarathustra.   The numbers, as one would probably guess, indicate chart position.

In Trevor's topic he asked us to pick three, in this as there are two and a half times as many options, I would ask people to pick up to five (more if you really want to of course, just one vote per act please).

So please try to vote for up to five and please comment on your selections. Thanks.

I voted for Genesis, Camel, Caravan, Pink Floyd and KC. I guess like this guy I knew in college who said he was a big prog fan you're not a Yes fan. ;)

Thanks, Carlin's the man. Now that's someone who tasted the sweat smell of success. The sweatier you get, the sweatier the success one might say.

As for me trying to choose just five, there are 15 or more that I would really want to vote for, and might vote in a few days if some of my favourites of these favourites from the top 100 have no votes. I did not know how much I love from the top 100 and left many other faves off the list. Some would surely get my vote now...

Can’t vote from the rest!

Interesting that neither of us included any Yes in our polls…..

-I think these five feel the most correct:

King Crimson - Red
Van der Graaf Generator - Pawn Hearts
Pink Floyd - Meddle
Gong - Radio Gnome Invisible Vol. 3 - You
Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom

-these five was the most painful to leave out:

Caravan - In the Land of Grey and Pink
Peter Hammill - The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage
Gentle Giant - Acquiring the Taste
Miles Davis - In a Silent Way
Area - Arbeit Macht Frei
