I downloaded their first album a while ago, I couldnt really get into it. Seeing that close to the edge won the poll, i just downloaded it, and I am digging it a lot more than their first album.

First two albums are quite poor really and not worth the bother despite some ok songs.

That becomes apparent after listening to close to the edge. :laughing:

You`ve gone from listening to a couple of dud albums to listening to probably the greatest prog album ever released, the contrast is going to be huge.

Tales from Topographic Oceans won me over at a time when I was getting tired of everything else I was listening to, I guess those albums never decrease in value after that point.

It's a mix between 90125 and Close To The Edge.

90125 has more material, but Close To The Edge is much closer to par of being a full on prog album.

Close To The Edge for me, but I love Relayer too... Surprised Relayer is so far down in the poll, actually...

I selected 90125 mostly because of 'Owner Of A Lonely Heart' (such good memories for me), but 'Close To The Edge' is probably a more solid album from front to back. I haven't heard half of the albums on the poll. Looks like I've got some music to listen to. 'Fragile' seems like it's doing well in the poll. I'll start there.

Relayer - Side One is solid

the other two songs i can do without - too much noodling around

Drama, I know it seems controversial to say so, but I think Trevor is the better singer.
