XII (aka The Virgin Album), by Twelfth Night (1986): After several years of toil in the shadows of fellow neo-prog pioneers Marillion and IQ, Twelfth Night finally broke through on a major label with this album (hence the subtitle). Along the way, they swapped lead singers and moved away from the more overtly proggy stuff to a sort of prog-tinged power pop. It's not really my thing, but I admit that the 11+minute closer "Take a Look" is a very cool anthemic tune.
