I know, this is almost too absurd to have as a poll, but it's gotta be done. I think what I'll do is have a "loser's round" at some point after all the official voting has been done, so that the most popular album that's been voted out will still have a chance at the #1 shot. 

Anyway...three days! Get on de bus.

This time the clouds are being obscured by the moon.  I like the idea of a losers round.

Dark Side of the Moon is by far the more mature and fresh album out of both, but Obscured by Clouds is like a son of mine (though I don't have one yet), love it to pieces and though it'll grow up, I'll always be pleased with it.

Really? I always liked the ringing. I also can't picture the entire album being brought down because of that. Confused

Dark Side. ObC never fully clicked with me.

Dark Side, obviuously. However, it would be nice if the next round could be somehow altered. It would be a mistake to have Wish you were Here vs Animals (and as a result one of them disquilified) so early on this "tournament". That one might just as well be the final.

Like I said, I'm going to do a Loser's Round after the straightforward voting, so whoever gets counted out isn't necessarily out for good.

Dark Side Of The Moon of course, one of the best Prog albums ever. Obscured By Clouds, on the other hand, is one of the most obscured Pink Floyd albums.Wink
