Paul, I'm seriously starting to think that you've reviewed many albums without listening to them either.

Easy choice.
The Masquerade Overture. Absolutely stunning album.
Purpendicular comes a decent 2nd.

It's certainly true that I've rated several albums recently without listening to them all the way through, especially if they happen to be 2-star albums. Smile

It's the fun of taking part in these polls that counts, even if I haven't heard any of the albums. Smile

Good heavens, Paul... This is ridiculous. What's the fun voting for an album you haven't heard? This is a good example of what we could call "trolling". And please, don't answer this, because every message in this thread so far has given a blow to your own credibility. I will stop participating in your polls, because I think this kind of behaviour should be banned.

As suitkees said, 0. The forum users know pretty well that the live album you mentioned (and I included in the poll) is a peculiar entity of its own and has no reasons to be mistaken with the excellent studio album.

As much as I appreciate everyone's participation in these polls, I must admit that this is ridiculous. I did make them for the fun of it, but I personally never voted for an album I do not know (or haven't listened to), in any poll... With all this being said, do as you wish, Psych Paul; No one can actually stop you from voting to albums you have not listened to. LOL

I've actually listened to the THRAK album and gave it two stars, so I doubt if  THRaKaTTaK is any better. Ouch

Paul, there is no issue with voting in polls where you only know a few of the albums, voting for something you've never heard makes you sound like a troll or acting the fool. Rating albums you've only listened to one or two tracks from is wilfully asinine.

Nope. Thrak on s scale of 1 to 10 is a 6. Thrakattak is a 10. Very different. So please don't review Thrakattak.

I should mention that they weren't official PA ratings I gave to albums where I'd only listened to one or two tracks. They were the star ratings I gave to albums on my various prog blogs, which no one takes much notice of anyway. Big smile
