None. :( In terms of great 70s German prog albums, my favorite is Adonis by Anyone's Daughter.

Voted for As Ra Temple. The Man Machine and Phaedra follow.

You caught me on the very day I am listening to 'Phaedra', so which one do you think I chose?

Tago Mago! I love the Man Machine, and Phaedra is a pretty significant album but my personal taste is more drawn to what TD did directly before and after.

I'm surprised no one has voted for Faust.

I've been on a huge Krautrock discovery thing as of late actually and I can't believe it: but i'm familiar with every single one of these. All phenomenal- so far:

Tago Mago>Zuckerzeit>Phaedra>Neu!=Man Machine>Faust IV>Ash Ra

This is definitely my kind of bag, Anders. Nice selection there
I could go with any one of three albums here (IV, Tago Mago and NEU!) but decided to opt for the fabulous selftitled NEW!
I wasn’t that crazy about Phaedra when I first got it but it has improved over the years. I still prefer a lot of TD albums leading up to it.

It's really hard to make a choice from this list. I guess I will vote for Faust at the end, but all are quite excellent.

I went with Neu! because it didn't have enough votes. Great album, that. I'm torn between that one and Phaedra; both great, but very different.
