Your favorite prog rock music? ?


I was just listening to, and burning some CDs for work when I heard "Time and a Word." I started thinking about some of the prog rock I have, but wondered what I should have that I don't have...

I mean music!

Thanks to Lindisfarne
for adding "Tales from Topographic Oceans" to the list. I honestly haven't listened to the thing in years -- I don't even own it at present -- but as soon as I saw the topic, it was the first record that strang to mind. It's astonishingly self-indulgent throughout -- what prog rock wasn't -- but there are moments of nearly unparalleled beauty to be found therein. I once had the great good pleasure of hearing them play some of it live (and outdoors) way back in the 1970s, and just recalling that night can bring a smile. I'm gonna go look around on eBay for a vinyl copy right now. Thanks for the notion.
