Hooboy, what a year. Prog or not, this is some mighty fine stuff. Sgt pepper might win it, on account of how popular that sucker seems to be. I can't go with either Beatles product, as half of the music in each strikes me as boring filler. I absolutely detest Jimi's debut, and would have no use for it if it weren't for the singles, which kick righteous ass. If I had to choose between The Doors and Strange Days, I'd pick the former, because of the hard hitting nature, even if I love both. Forever Changes has really been growing on me, lately, as has Harum's debut. I can't decide, just yet. |

Why isn't one of the poll choices "No" ?

So a****les like yourself would comment on it? I basically chose no. Now that you think on it, I should've added the option. I plan on doing one for each year, from the lat 60's early 70's. |

I say a three way tie between "Emotions" by The Pretty Things, "Something Else" by The Kinks, and "The Diary of Emerlist Davjack" by The Nice.
All very underrated and forgotten masterworks of their year of release.
Oh, and you forgot to add the very cockney-y, "Ogdens Nut Gone Flake" to the poll. Poor Happiness Stan!

| Love's Forever Changes. Beautiful strings and horns accompaniment with Arthur Lee's dimented and romantic lyrics. Makes me numb. |

I wanted to include Something Else... and Emerlist, but I totally forgot them upon creation of this poll. |

So many great albums to choose from, but The Doors' debut gets my vote in the end. -------------

Theres way too many good albums from the 67-69 years. I don't even know what I'd choose, but theres so many in 67 that no list can get even 1/4 of them. ------------- Which of you to gain me, tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell? I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance. |

| The first Procol Harum album, but Mr. Fantasy by Traffic (not in the list) and Forever Changes by Love are also quite good. |
