Well, I was going to wait before posting another, but...what the hey? Having fun with it!  Same shuffle of 14000 tracks, first 5 from the top.

This one pits short tracks against a couple epics.   Again, choose your favorite, but make any comments about your runner-up, or anything you like about the other tracks. 

4 of the 5 bands are listed on Progarchives (guess who's not--but hey, He's classic!)

Well, 'Sigh', gotta go with Renaissance again--a beautiful epic piece.  But I admit I was severely tempted to go with Ray (just because he defines Cool!), so he's my second. 

I kind of hate to edge out Frank here, but I have to go with Nemrud for a third choice: just a fantastic Psychadelic epic!  And I like Hocus Pocus (the US version is decent) but it's just a fun-to-listen track sometimes, can't compete with the others.

Renaissance...but a strange collection of choices to compare.....they all are interrsting in one way or another.

Hocus Pocus, just ahead of Renaissance. Both are wonderful.

Hey, so glad someone voted Nemrud, so every track got a vote (it is a great track!)

I'm really surprised, though, that Focus took the lions share (as of Sept 21) over Zappa and Ray. More popular track than I'd realized. I though, at least, Zappa would get a few more votes.
