Tales From Topographic Oceans.

Selling England by the Pound a honorable second, with Dark Side of the Moon, Tubular Bells and Six Wives very close behind those two.

It's very hard to whittle it down to one, but nonetheless I'm STAGGERED that there was nary a vote for GG's storming In a Glass House. You disappoint me, people.

Well, Trouserpress, it shows how POPULAR Genesis is on Progarchives and Selling England by the Pound is the most "highly rated" album on Progarchives right? So it probably would receive a lot of votes like that.

In a Glass House would be my second choice (GG's best IMO) but I had to go with Mekanïk Destruktïw Kommandöh my all time favourite! Dark Side would be third... or I don't know... many fantastic records listed, really a great year..

My personal vote goes to "Larks' tongues," but "In A Glass House" is a close second

MAGMA, definitely. Other albums may have sold many more copies, and
may be regarded by many as the cornerstones of prog, but "Mekanik
Destruktiw Kommandoh" (even more so than its two predecessors) gave
birth to a whole new genre of music.

I grew up with "The Dark Side...", so it's for me a subjective choice. I must say it's very close between Genesis and Floyd.

Top 7:

1. Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon

2. Genesis - Selling England By The Pound

3. Gentle Giant - In A Glass House

4. ELP - Brain Salad Surgery

5. King Crimson - Lark's Tongues In Aspic

6. Jethro Tull - A Passion Play

7. Yes - Tales From Topographic Oceans

I voted GG's "In a Glass House", although Magma's "Mekanïk Destruktïw Kommandöh" came very close.
