Sorry Jared. The last time I ran a poll where multiple voting was enabled, it turned out to be an absolute disaster. Ouch

Why Because the results weren’t what you wanted to see?

While multiple vote polls are obviously more open to abuse, I suspect (based on those I’ve seen) that instances of that abuse are greatly exaggerated. They tend to be obvious, also, when they occur, so it’s easy to disregard them.

Strangely, 3 Ships was the most listened to Jon Anderson album on my Prog Britannia channel with over 3000 views, although I've no idea why, when almost any other Jon Anderson album is much better than 3 Ships. Confused

No, because 30 people voted for John Bonham in my Best Drummers poll, although I strongly  suspect it was one Led Zeppelin fan voting 30 times. Tongue

Yes, I think that Colours - Planets - TtT sequence is quite underrated.

Rush release a genuinely progressive album shock!  I actually liked that one but not as much as that little gem by Twelfth Night.

LOL Well, you can rest assured it wasn't me. I'm probably the one guy on this entire forum who'd never vote for anything LZ-related.

Number of albums I'd listened to in the poll before 2010 = 7 (Alan Parsons Project; Jon Anderson; Camel; Mike Oldfield; Rainbow; Roxy Music; Tangerine Dream)

Number of albums I've listened to in the poll now = 24 (all except the Pat Metheny Group)

Number of CD albums I currently own in the poll = 7 (Alan Parsons Project; Jethro Tull; Mike Oldfileld; Robert Plant; Roxy Music; Rush; Tangerine Dream

Voted for..... Osiris

Voted for Peter Gabriel.

Kate Bush published another great album.

Signals, in my opinion, is a minor work, very far from Gabriel and Bush.
Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.
