Man...I'd have a hard time picking just one? Right
now I'd have to say:
Supper's Ready-Genesis
Tarkus-ELP
Ocean Cloud-Marillion
Gates Of Delirium-Yes (especially good on the
Yesymphonic DVD)

An extremely difficult question. Anyone of the following, depending on mood, time of day, beer or ale availability, weather and or format.... 
Shine On You Crazy Diamond (PF)
Echoes (PF)
Close to the Edge (Yes)
Natural Selection (Lands End)
2112 (Rush)
Tarkus (ELP)

Suppers Ready - Genesis
The fountain of Lamneth - Rush
Hemispheres - Rush
The revealing science of God (From Topographic oceans) - Yes
Dogs - Pink Floyd
Harvest of Souls - IQ (May not be considered as classic as it is so recent, but I have really fallen for this wonderfully constructed, and emotional epic. IQ have been brilliant in recent years)

I won't pick just one, but not too many either: simply a few -- JETHRO TULL's 'Thick as a Brick', VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR's 'A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers' and 'Childlike Faith in Childhood's End', BANCO DEL MUTO SOCCORSO 'Canto Nomade per un Priggionero Politico', and PULSAR's 'The Strands of the Future'.
A special mention to a handful of future classic: ANGLAGARD's 'Höstesjid', DREAM THEATER's 'a Change of Seasons', CITIZEN CAIN's 'Somewhere but Yesterday', IQ's 'Harvest of Souls', and last but not least, ECHOLYN's 'Mei' and 'a Suite for the Everyman'.
