| I had to vote the Wall. I don't care if it is prog or not. The sheer number of times I've been able to listen to this and be fully captivated is shocking to me. |

| i I like all from the list minus Tangernine Dream, never was my kind of music. My vote is UK - Danger Money, a very underrated album IMO. |

| Bruford's album is excellent. Then - The Wall, Danger Money and FZ. Good year for great music! |

| The Wall is a monumental achievement and one of the greatest albums of all time. Sheik Yerbouti and Force Majeure are other standouts. |

Spectral Mornings, Heresie, Wall and Force Majeure
I went for the latter, because it didn't have votes yet. ------------- 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 |

This is a really tough one, '79 was clearly a great year for prog. I can think of a few other classics from '79 too  .
Danger Money is an awesome album, Force Majeure is TD's 2nd best and the Eloy album is on reflection my favourite album by the band. I also really like Spectral Mornings. I find it really tough not to vote for The Wall though. It's such an iconic album, fine songs and very atmospheric.. I don't love all of the album but on the whole it's superb.
No vote for the moment........

I can't listen The Wall anymore, I sleep in the middle of the side two , at least the movie is good. My vote goes to Heresie |

Heresie, by a small margin. Mostly good albums, but I have to admit that I hate most of The Wall. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...' Robert Wyatt, Gloria Gloom |

Difficult. Bruford, Hackett and UK made some excellent albums. Okay, I choose Bruford.
The Wall is a good album, but not as good as the three other that I mentioned.

| Went with Bruford. The Wall has its moments but I think that it is far from being the best from PF. |

Gotta go with the majority here - I love The Wall. I also really like UK's Danger Money too - I didn't realise it was the same year as The Wall!

| Obviously The wall even if it's a cliché but still a masterpiece. |

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend of any of the six that I have. For poll purposes I went with One Of A Kind.
------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Eloy comes second, far behind. -------------
