My second favorite group of all time, sandwiched right there between King Crimson and Yes.

As great as Octopus and some of their later works are though, I consider their debut and Acquiring The Taste to be special due to the somewhat bluesy quality they have on some of their tracks, which was later shed in favor of a more medieval approach.
