For me, A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers is probably the most coherent and most entertaining 20+minutes long epic I've ever heard.

It might have been even better with a bit less avant-garde, but overall a highlight of the progressive era.

A worthy album that's among the best by the band, so the choices didn't apply for me.

Second best, after Godbluff, and this is after I squeezed in the "W" and "Theme One" bonus tracks into the main album. I dunno, I think Godbluff resonates more with me emotionally, especially with the lyrics.
Nonetheless, it's a fine album.

Some of the proggiest prog from 1971. I'd say it's their best, though H to He is close. It's not as accessible as H to He or Godbluff. "Plague" definitely took a while to grow on me, but once I understood, it really blew my mind.

A big dose of quirkiness that works really well; VDGG's finest, a great record.

Checks all three boxes quite nicely, actually.  EDIT: But Godbluff is better.

In all honesty, when I first got it, it was my favorite album ever for about 2 years. Nowadays, I don't enjoy it as much (much prefer GodBluff). Maybe I just overplayed it?

Hmm....there's two people that either haven't had sex recently or are doing it wrong.
