I think that Led Zeppelin IV is the best from those, it has some amazing songs on it ------------- "Let's get the hell away from this Eerie-ass piece of work so we can get on with the rest of our eerie-ass day" |

Sgt Pepper is the best from the list. I don't want to offend anyone, but there are classic stinkers on the list as well. |

Since my all-time #1 favorite isn't listed (Abbey Road), I voted for Tommy. Actually, my favorite Who album is Who'd Next. ------------- David - Never doubt in the dark that which you believe to be true in the light. http://www.myspace.com/aardvarktxusa - Instrumental rock http://www.soundclick.com/aardvarktxusa |

I voted for Are You Experienced? Though I was kind of pulling towards Zep
IV. My favorite Zep is Physical Graffiti and I definitely would've picked that if it was up. ------------- One likes to believe In the freedom of music But glittering prizes And endless Compromises Shatter the illusion Of integrity |

Very tough ... but if I could keep only one it would be Sgt. Peppers, with IV second and Machine Head third ... ADMIN SPEAKING: This is a non-prog poll by the way ... and it's being moved there now! ------------- "Death to Utopia! Death to faith! Death to love! Death to hope?" thunders the 20th century. "Surrender, you pathetic dreamer.” "No" replies the unhumbled optimist "You are only the present." |

| Difficult choice, although aparently there isn't a clear criterium for the choice of these albums (besides the fact they aren't prog). My fav of this list is Machine Head, but the most importants are Sgt. Pepper's and Are you Experienced? |

I got burnt out on Zep, and it holds to this day. I lived in
Jacksonville, FL for 4 years 1980-84 and the local radio stations
played Zep one time out of every ten songs played. I got tired of
listening to them and turned the radio off. They also burnt me
out on BS as well. Black Sabbath, Billy Squire, Bob Seger, Bruce
Springsteen.

Sgt Pepper by the Beatles. I am a huge Zeppelin fan but I have heard IV so much over the years that I can barely stand to listen to it anymore. -------------  |

I also picked the Beatles, but U2's Joshua Tree wasn't far behind, and though I don't expect there'll be (m)any votes, Michael Jackson's Thriller is a really good album |

Sargeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The list is excellent but I'd add one Byrds' album like Mr. Tambourine Man or Fifith Dimension. ------------- Guigo ~~~~~~ |

Totally agree PG is the best album ever made in my opinion. So much variety all played to perfection. Rock folk blues funk and even some Prog- Kashmir and In the Light esp. ------------- I talk to the wind... It tells me to burn things |

Led Zep IV by a country mile.... ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

Would have been much easier if you included Quadrophenia by The Who, or Their Satanic Majesties Request by Rolling Stones, because I would have voted blindly for any of those, but honestly, none of this albums is so, so strong IMO. Lets see:
So it's Tommy, closely followed by Joshua's Tree, Machine Head and Zep IV. Iván

Led Zeppelin and their 'IV' is a true classic. Take 'Stairway to Heaven', it's ingenious and unforgettable chord progression with the most famous guitar solo of all time. 'Battle of Evermore' - the mandolin masterpiece The rest of the stuff on the list is either trash or it just goes by me. |
