 Topic: Favorite 3rd rate album
Posted: August 27 2006 at 22:07 |

I made this poll because I noticed many of my favorite albums on this site are ranked #3 for each respective artist. I compiled 20 popular artist's 3rd ranked album and this is the list.

Can - Ege Bamyasi. H to He, Sky Moves Sideways, Udu Wudu, and Mirage are also pretty good.

Van der graaf generator's H to He. Hard to beat the song Emperor in his war room.

Tough to choose between "The Lamb," "Udu Wudu," "Animals," "Songs from the Wood," and LTIA. Actually, right now I am digging "H to He" the most.

Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me

Many great choices - I plunged for a controversial one. So by Peter
Gabriel. I know many of you think it is too pop, but I love it.
Genesis, VDGG, Camel, Pink Floyd, Kate Bush and Porcupine tree were
strong contenders though.

Oh easy The Lamb, for 20 years my favourite album finally had to concede that SEBTP was better though!!!!

There are some of my favourite albums in this list, so I had to make a difficult choice.. which was PF's mighty "Animals". Other favourites of mine are Kate Bush's "Aerial", KC's LTiA and ELP's "Trilogy".

VdGG, followed by Crimson
not that I agree with those thrid place albums.
You should change your thread title >> misleading
Third rate is not third place.
Third rate implies awful >> third place implies third best

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
