YES - Time and a Word - Progressive Rock Music Forum

I know it's (for me) a great album and seems underrated (and compared to much later offerings, happily understated)

just something wrong in the algorithm.

it is, nevertheless it should be a bit higher. There are albums with less ratings that are higher and it's wrong.

maybe "wrong" is not a good word, is it better to say "it's not right"? LOL

If 2 or 3 more Special Collabs or Reviewers decided to write even moderately good reviews for the album, that would probably lift it up the pecking order... Smile

Now I'm confused. On my link it shows Asterix at #250.

You could put them on one, if you wish...

And I have to say, aside from all the jokes, that I really like this album!

Crikey! I had no idea I was entering a Land of Confusion when I started cataloguing PA's annual lists of top albums, considering all five of those lists above are the Spitting Image of each other. I prefer the fifth list where Time and a Word is at #61. Big smile

The question now though is how did you manage to find five different top albums lists when I've only ever found one list for each year? Confused

Two different lists - I get Asterix at 250 on your one Paul but Yes on suitkees' one. Don't know what the difference is though.

the lists look different, depends on how Minimum Number of Ratings is set.
