Do.
I’ll go with Ogden’s Nut Gone Flake.   
Mahavishnu Orchestra wasn’t a groundbreaking LP. They toured that before and after. Saw them do play it twice. Saw John again at The Cubby Bear with his guitar synth. Holy Moly.
McLauphlin’s Electric Dreams gets my nod.
Or Adventures In Radioland.
Floyd toured the Dark Side... over a year before they cut it with Alan Parsons. The ground was quite disturbed by then.
