This is an album I enjoy as a whole, so it's hard to pick a favorite. I'll have to think very hard before I can vote for a first or second favorite.

Time Table, I don't understand why it gets so much dislike. Now, the one I do dislike is Get'em out by Friday. Just annoying. Part of my annoying trilogy, along with Harold the Barrel and Battle of Epping Forest, the three songs that ruin albums for me. However, Watcher of the Skies somehow never called much my attention until I heard Hackett's solo version on Tokyo Tapes... now, that one on that version would be my favourite of the lot.

It's one of those songs where the verse and bridge is better than the chorus (dear father by Yes is another one like that).

Can-Utility. The only song I like from Side One.

Should be a poll maybe? Wink

I'm also thinking that ELP would also have an 'Annoying Trilogy' with Jeremy Bender, The Sheriff and Benny The Bouncer. In both cases the middle one chronologically speaking is the least annoying of the 3 for me anyway.

I don't think I've ever noticed anyone actively disliking Time Table. It's just rarely anyone's absolute favorite. I like it, but I do not consider it a stand out. Same goes for Harold the Barrel which I think is an enjoyable little ditty. I'm glad it only lasts for three minutes though. Not eight-and-a-half, or almost twelve minutes of ear-torture - like the other ones in your annoying trilogy.
