Easy formula - one album from one band

For me,MC was the obvious choise.I was obscured with MARILLION's unquestionable greatness at first...but then I've remebered,that its side B is a bit(no,I can't say "weak"!!!)...a bit usual(except for brilliant "Blind Curve").

And then I've mentioned COLLAGE's masterpeice...my favouritest Neo-prog cincept album,truly.I've got it April,17th,2005,and in Anniversary Listening Day I've realised that it's REALLY INCREDIBLE!!! Just marvellous...

PS:sorry if I haven't included your favourite - you may vote in "other" category...

Thank you that you mentioned my favourite prog concept album: Casino by Casino (Geoff Mann, Clive Nolan and others). Music and lyrics are a complete unity, and I never heard a concept album that made a bigger impression on me than this one. One of the peak moments / albums of both Geoff and Clive.

I think,1992 was the best year for Clive:a stunning SHADOWLAND's debut(my favouritest from him ) and a last work with Mann... .R.I.P.

I love Shadowland's debut as well!  

And yes, Geoff is an enormous loss for prog

I took SATELLITE-A Street between Sunset and Sunrise but there is nothing wrong with any of the other choices. Tough poll.

I choose Subterranea by IQ, although that's not their best work (I prefer Dark Matter).

Well, I incline towards The Sentinel. And I'm the first one to vote on this album as I can see.
