Some albums just have a great feel and build to a crescendo. 'Once upon a time in the West' wouldn't work if it just cut straight to the shoot-out. That said I am a prog/concept man.

1. Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd
2. A Trick of the Tail - Genesis
3. OK Computer - Radiohead
4. The Lamb lies down on Broadway - Genesis
5. Voyage of the Acolyte - Steve Hackett
6. You all look the same to me - Archive
7. Trespass - Genesis
8. Wind and Wuthering - Genesis
9. Atom Heart Mother - Pink Floyd
10. Take my head - Archive

i'm a prog & concept man too so i'm surprised ther is no Kraftwerk or Yes on your list, not to mention Tangerine Dream !

Not going to list my actual top ten. Can only ever get as far as 5 then it becomes a headache. Nor am I going to list my actual treasured albums in terms of rarity, special import and how much I paid.

This is more of a ''before you dismiss the artist or worse still the whole genre, check this out''. You know, when someone comes out with a sweeping statement that all techno is just electrical noise.

Goldie - Timeless
Orbital - In Sides
The Orb - U.F.Orb
Pet Shop Boys - Actually
Chic - C'est Chic
Kraftwerk - The Mix
Bob Dylan - Desire
Prefab Sprout - From Langley Park to Memphis
John Foxx - Metamatic
Robert Miles - 23am
