for me, its really tight between WYWH and Snow Goose. ill go with Camel, as I like the album as a whole, while I like the individual songs from Pink Floyd's ------------- //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// A veces es cuestión de esperar, y tomarte en silencio. |

| Gentle Giant, with Harmonium as a close second. |

The Snow Goose is the crowning masterpiece in all prog. WYWH, Free Hand and Scheherezade are also excellent, but NOTHING comes close to the Goose. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

One more vote for the Floyd.
Albums that have been laboured with so much love and attention to detail, are exceptional.
Hackett has some great music too, on Voyage.

In my opinion Free Hand, but The Snow Goose can be easily declared as world's best album, and nothing can come close. Free Hand gets my vote.

Free Hand! It would have been a tough call if One Size Fits All was included. |

I'm from Quebec, so my vote was easy. Si on avait besoin d'une cinquième saison d'Harmonium. My very first prog album. Superb!

"Voyage of the Acolyte", definitely...Harmonium takes second place...haven't listened to about half of them, I must admit -------------

Free Hand I guess, with Scheherazade and WYWH very close behind.. but surely this is an incomplete list |

1. Ommadawn
2. Scherezade
3. Voyage of the Acolyte
4. Wish You Were Here ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd's best album IMO.

A very hard choice because it was a very prolific year. WYWH, Snow Goose, Sheherazade and Ommadawn all in the same poll....Then looking better, I see Harmonium, Gentle Giant, Steve Hackett's debut and TD' Rubycon...I'll go with my heart and vote for Camel but there's plenty of 5 stars albums here ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie.

I might vote for any of these albums. Only the second half of Ommadawn is not on par with the others.
I give my vote to Harmonium because it has the smallest number of votes while PF and VdGG are far ahead. -------------

WYWH is the best one but voted Free Hand because PF are clearly winning this one anyway

Indeed, I can't believe that Harmonium - Si On Avait Besoin D'Une Cinquieme Saison only gets a couple of vots, when it sits in PA's top 20. ------------- 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 |

Voted for Gentle Giant. Even better live.
So since I voted, I'll plug a relatively unknown album from this year:
Armaggedon (s/t)

Kansas does exist, but Masque isn't one of the top 10 highest rated prog albums of 1975.
My vote goes to WYWH, my second-favorite album of all time. ------------- "I am the one who crossed through space...or stayed where I was...or didn't exist in the first place...." |

I think the genius of WYWH is the whole, not the songs... Except Shine On, of course. ------------- "Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and cannot remain silent" - Victor Hugo |
