My favorite Banco Album.

Wait a second. You contradicted yourself here. All I said is you have to know at least eight of them to vote so if you don't know that many then vote for the last option. That way you are still technically voting.


I’m not sure that I have contradicted myself.

It’s weird cause I can read or interpret that last poll option that I quoted in two different ways. I can see it as the sort of opposite of “I know at least eight of these options” which supports what you said in your opening post, but I read the last poll option as I don’t know 8 or more of these, meaning if I only know 0, 1, or two of them only then I can vote for the “I don’t know at least 8 of these albums” option. Does that interpretation make sense to anyone? I had just came out of a nap and i often feel discombobulated if I nap.

Were I allowed to vote for an album option, I would go with Zarathustra over the Gnidrolog (I prefer the debut) and Far East Family band album. I also have liked Solar Music Live, but haven’t spun it in over a decade.

Spring....for me it's one of those one off albums that is really interesting ,melodic, and just pushes all the right buttons for me.  Eloy, Pulsar, Triumvirat and Gnirdrolog are also in my collection.
One does nothing yet nothing is left undone.

I prefer Spartacus to any ELP album! In my top 20 all-time. 
I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Here are 10 great albums as chosen by Ken Golden of the laser's edge prog mail order website. https://thevinylpress.com/prog-rock-obscurities-ken-golden/

Please only vote if you know most of these(at least 8 as specified in the poll). That way this becomes less of a popularity contest. Thanks.
