This poll came about because of a discussion on a Rush thread, where it was brought up that a number of prog-related albums were all released within a few weeks of each other. I remember being completely overwhelmed at the time: "When am I going to have time to listen to all of these?" As one can see by the titles above, I needn't have fretted as much as I did. I seriously doubt any of these are anyone's very favorites, and a number of them are (shall we say) "problematic". That being said, all of them are worth hearing, and some even have moments of true greatness. So which one of these do you like best today?

I naturally apologize if I have neglected a favorite album of yours that was released in September or October of 1987, or if your country's release dates were different. Also, I realize the Robbie Robertson album is NOT prog, but I know a number of people on this site who enjoy it because of guest appearances by Peter Gabriel, Tony Levin, Terry Bozzio, and Manu Katche (not to mention ALL of U2).

A Momentary Lapse of Reason > Hai Hai > Human Interface. I went to college for the sofa cushions.

Pink FLoyd. 
Big Generator has some good songs but also some stinkers. And I'm a YES fan.

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution
