Supper's Ready was a masterpiece, Watcher was simply stunning, Out by Friday was extraordinary, Horizons was beautiful, Can-Utility was breathtaking and Time Table was not bad at all.

But never better than Selling England. Sure, it had the awful More Fool Me, but it had 5 masterpieces as well as a great bookend track. I Know What I Like is definitely forgiveable, seeing as it was basically a catchy prog track (imo). It's a wonder how Foxtrot managed to crush SEbtP so hard...

EDIT: After discovering what "multi-vote poll" means, it's all very clear to me...

20+ prog bands discovered and explored in 3 years, still going strong...

Selling England by the Pound. Better all around album. Better musicianship. Lacked a little aggression; not able to punch through on some tracks. But, oh well, neither was as good as any of the others (The Lamb, Nursery Cryme, Trespass). They still represent a high standard though.

Wow, look at the contrast between these two records! 

I thought for sure that everyone was "Selling England By The Pound" obsessed LOL.
