Carlos Santana & Buddy Miles! Live! (USA) Secret Oyster (DK) - Sea Sun Tangerine Dream (D) - Stratosfear Rick Wakeman (UK) - The Six Wives or The Myths and Legends Weather Report (USA) - Black Market Enjoy!  Edit: As not everybody has understood properly my thread title ("IN") and OP ("this thread is for the old boys and girls....my top 15....was"), I better to point that I'm asking for a list of those albums, one was most fond of in the '70s - and my own list has grown to more than 15. ------------- quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond |

David, can I have some clarification here? Is this my top 15 albums IN the 70's, ie a list of 70's albums that had been formed in my mind by 1979.... or a list of 15 fave albums FROM the 70's which I have now formulated in 2024? If it's the former, then I was only 11 when the decade ended, so my list won't have much more than the Electric Light Orchestra, Queen, a couple of dodgy Genesis tracks and possibly a bit of Supertramp on it... If it's the latter, then I'll get thinking? ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.

| Ok, so this thread is for those who were collecting and listening to prog in the 70s and not just your favorites from that decade. Now I understand why he said it's for the older folks. I just re-read the title. In that case I won't post because I was in single digits in that decade and didn't discover or get into prog until the 80s (I'm probably one of the few people on here like that). |

| I am out on this one. I turned 12 in 1979 and I think the only albums I had at that time was the Star Wars score, a couple of Sesame Street albums, an Escape from Witch Mountain audio story record, and a collection of 'science fiction' music, which included Rocket Man and the disco Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band by Meco. It wasn't until a couple of years later that I learned about "prog." |

Seeing as it's one per artist, these are the prog albums that most influenced me in the 70's and would shape my future musical tastes (including one or two crossover or prog-related)... Argent - All Together Now Camel - The Snow Goose Caravan - In the Land of the Grey and Pink Curved Air - Live Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick ELP - Emerson Lake & Palmer ELO - Electric Light Orchestra Focus - Moving Waves (aka Focus II) The Nice - Five Bridges Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells Moody Blues - Seventh Sojourn Pink Floyd - Meddle Rick Wakeman - Six Wives of Henry VIII Santana - Caravanserai Yes - Close to the Edge So hard to nail it down to only 15 seeing as it's the golden era of prog for us baby boomers. Honourable mentions for 'Deep Purple in Rock' and 'Led Zeppelin IV', whilst neither album is bona fide prog, they both had a massive influence on my musical listening tastes and appreciation in my teenage years (and later!). ------------- 'We're going to need a bigger swear jar.' |

Another thoughtless and insensitive post of your    Since "boomers" is generally used as an insult  by youngers generations (which we shall call  doomers  )I don't consider myself as a "boomer", because I was born around the very end of that repopulation phase. But I identify easily with the generation before mine (I'd love to have been 14 in 67, rather than 77), especially in terms of music (but not necessarily so in terms of other arts like literature, plastic arts, movies, etc...). . ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

If someone is insensitive here, it is you, Sean. Yes you. Just, chill out and re-read my messages. I didn't criticize those generations in my post! Read it carefully, without your default negative prejudice. I used those terms in a stirctly descriptive manner. I mean, IMHO the generation gaps aren't even as drastics as people lead themselves to believe. I know a lot of boomers (born 1946-1964) and Jonesers (~1958-1963 more/less) who are friendly and easy going people. The constant culture wars really shape cross-generational relations in a negative way. It's a bit of a bummer. ------------- “On the day of my creation, I fell in love with education.

Well, I was born in the 70s and am Gen X. I do remember hearing The Alan Parsons Project's I Robot near the tail end of the 70s as my brother had bought the record and that was one of his that I liked. And I am confident that I had heard Camel's The Snow Goose by then and Caravan's the Land of Grey and Pink. Oh, and I had heard ELP's Trilogy I think by then, but that could just be an acid flashback.  In my day we started young, okay, maybe not quite that young.

Gee Whizz.... this Gen-X personage should never have mentioned the expression 'Boomer', eh?

Being born in the mid 50's I am probably from the start of the second wave of baby boomers... The boomer generation as I understand it were born between the end of WWII and the mid 60's... or 1946-65 if you like. The first phase of boomers were the Woodstock / hippy / psychedelic 60's generation, the second phase of boomers included us 70's proggers. ------------- 'We're going to need a bigger swear jar.' |

Actually the reason for, that I was rather knowledgable about the most appreciated Rock bands already in my early teenage years, was that when I lived earlier in Poland, I had a couple of friends that were very interested in Rock music. Furthermore, they had tape recorders and they recorded a lot of whole albums by the much appreciated Rock artists because they were played on the radio. When they talked about them, I learned a lot of band names, so when I came to Denmark at the age 15, I very quickly got a lot of albums by these artists. ------------- quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond |

^^ True, but people who know each other commonly tease each other, we get to know each other's quirks and senses of humour, how we express ourselves, out peeves, likes and tolerances, and I think we just should be that much more careful with newbies, that's all. Kindness, compassion, warmth and consideration to all would be ideal. For another 70s album I think I heard in the 70s, maybe with baby food in my beard, oh wait... Um, if only Gary Numan's and The Tubeway Army's Replicas were considered Prog. "Down in the park Where the mach-men meet the machines And play 'kill-by-numbers' Down in the park with a friend called five..."

My bad, I misunderstood the title (language barrier, as I believe somebody suggested)...I was born in '91, so I guess I was a couple of years late for this post. Hrychu, I didn't take your comment as offensive. I know progressive rock from abroad could be heard on the local radio during the 70s (that changed after '82), and there are a few magazines (Pelo, for instance) which featured most of the bands I included on the list. Maybe not Secret Oyster... Anyway, apologies, I'll get the hell out of this thread now.

Prog hit me in 1979, probably even late 1979, and I think when 1980 started I really only had heard the Manfred Mann's Earth Band albums from Nightingales and Bombers through to Angel Station and a sampler of older material that apparently isn't listed on PA. Pink Floyd should be there with Relics, Wish You Were Here, the first two albums, and The Wall (maybe not quite all of these, but if I remember correctly, I bought Animals on a flea market early 1980 and I think I knew these before or at least most of them). Then there were Trilogy and Welcome Back by ELP, Aqualung by Jethro Tull and Novalis' second album; those I knew from my father's collection, and I loved what I knew from Kate Bush's first album although that isn't really prog. Even earlier I had a Beatles phase so I could also list most of their albums, but by 1979 I had distanced myself from them (not proud of that). I remember it was early 1980 I started to properly explore music. |

"Whoa, take 'er easy there, Pilgrim." Wasn't Jeff Wayne a star of Westerns? Or maybe I'm thinking of Clint Wayne. Seriously speaking, since ELO was mentioned, right after, and that has Jeff Lynne, it is for me a very understandable mistake. That kind of transposition happens to me commonly. I have two things in mind and they get jumbled together. I am aware of the error when I look back on it, but it's just the wires getting crossed.

^ Another way the wires could get crossed. That reminds me, I had meant to mention ELO way back on page two of this thread -- ah, the memories, that takes me back to yesterday. Now I'm feeling nostalgic for yesterday, when all my troubles seemed so far away. My older brother, as usual, bought that A New World Record album and I remember hearing it when wee (not when weeing). He also had bought a Simon Says game and the cover had reminded me of that.

Read it
carefully, without your default negative prejudice. I used
those terms in a stirctly descriptive manner. I mean, IMHO the generation gaps
aren't even as drastics as people lead themselves to believe. I know a lot of
boomers (born 1946-1964) and Jonesers (~1958-1963 more/less) who are friendly
and easy going people. The constant culture wars really shape
cross-generational relations in a negative way. It's a bit of a bummer.
YOU don't
understand. I have no problems with the use of Baby-Boomers (the terms Jared
used) , but the use of the "boomer" diminutive term (that YOU used) is
generally meant/used to be negative. I had to look up "Jonesers", because I'd never heard of that bogus concept (gen X is another bogus as well, and so are all the next inventions like Gen Z and now Gen Alpha). In some
ways, yes, I do think that those who were late-teens and in early their early
20's during the late 60's and early 70's are fairly different than the
baby-boomers. They participated to summer of
love, civil rights movement fights, Mai 68 in Paris,West German rebellions, etc... Early BB rebels were few and generally
called Beatnicks, while later BB were more numerous and became Hippies. In either case, the younger dudes mocking the older generations should really shut up and be respectfull for the fight and price paid in their fight to change the world (at least the western hemisphere), because they would've really resented the established order prior to 67 to be still in application today. =================================
As for your complaint of PA in PE:
For some
time now, PA simply doesn't feel like a community anymore. There are many
active users but they all do their own thing, debate over which band is better
(using polls or not) and rarely showing any real human social skills. The way
discussions on PA go rn doesn't make me ever want to hang out with any of those
users. I dunno. Maybe it's the generational gap? The userbase give me an
impression of masked-up anonymous figures wearing business suits. PA just feels
really formal and cold. If you feel
really that way.... Nobody’s
holding you back…. And Don’t let the door hit you in the back on the way out ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

I must confess, I'm not a fan of the terms either; they are lazy, stereo-typical labels which tend to artificially divide generations, rather than bring them together... I suppose I used it, because of all the demarcations, 1965 is the DOB year most commonly given for the cut off between Baby-Boomers and Gen X. This seemed to fall perfectly when describing who could take part in David's thread, because someone born in 1965 would have been 14 in 1979 and therefore just old enough to have formulated a rudimentary Prog collection, whereas any Gen Xers (like me) would have found that very difficult. My apologies to anyone offended by the labelling...  ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.

I used the term "boomer" as a simple abbreviation of "baby boomer". Believe it or not, a lot of people use it in such context online. Also, the generation labels are not strict or scientific nor are they meant to judge people. They're meant to simplify certain generational traits in order to find common grounds between people who grew up during similar time frames. ;) ------------- “On the day of my creation, I fell in love with education.

I was born in 1996 and I consider myself a Zillennial. Like, definitely a Millennial in a lot of aspects, but just a little bit too young to remember most of the stuff typical Millennials are nostalgic for. And on the other hand, too old to truly "get" the way Gen Z'ers are perceiving their media. But you know what? At the end of the day, what helps me connect with representatives of other generations is progressive rock music.

Oh
yeah, the political fights went on until the early 80's, once the
yuppies (ex-hippies) started pllaying the capitalist game under Bitcher
& Reagan rules. Herd to believe the punks
actually voted for the Cons-ervatives over the Labour, but something had
to change in the UK during the later 70's. However, did anybody deserve

I've often heard it hurled as insult (and disrespect) a bit too many times, starting with the "OK, Boomer" craze of 5 to 10 years ago. I do agree that these terms are somewhat useful when needing to describe generations, but involves too many generalizations. .

I can also tell that it's a good question how familiar I was with the term "progressive" in the '70s, even I think that I heard it at least, as one of my class mates was very much into Genesis and VdGG, and if I remember well, King Crimson, and he payed much attention to different cultural trends. I had a period when I was almost only into instrumental music, so that was definitely my most important way to distinguish between different kinds of music (if disregarding distancing myself much from the much Pop-influenced, not least The Beatles), so albums like The Birds of Fire, Where Have I Known You Before, Sea Sun, Ommadawn, The Snow Goose, Clearlight Symphony, Stratosfear and Oxygene were to me almost the same kind of music. "Almost" because I also thought of the latter three ones as electronic music.

Again very much off-topic, Paul. ------------- quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond |

all but Zappa although I do have some of his later albums. I mostly agree with the list but the inclusion of Time and a Word (I would put in Caravan's release for that year instead as per PA) and lack of Gentle Giant would get a few hot under the collar. I would also put in Pawn Hearts instead of Tarkus for 1971. No recognition of the RPI scene either but PFM best albums came out in 1972 and that is a tough year to crack.
