This is crazy to say, but I like Geoff Downes's Light Program album.  I remember when I first heard it when it came out.  I've been using it test speakers and qualify audio set ups for years.  It is sonically and melodically profound.  I think it may be the best thing he's ever done.  I used to work for Voice of America in DC and I always used the album to test audio equipment and set ups.  (And hate me for this but I think just about Everything Billy Sherwood touches stinks.  I call him the Anti-Yes or the Yes destroyer.  Everything he produces and plays on just sounds like its recorded in a tin can.  His production values stink.  I can hear his crappy boring/soul-less influence in everything he touches).

That's not crazy at all. Geoff Downes' Light Program is my second favourite album in the poll (after Tony Kaye). Maybe it's me who's crazy for ranking Billy Sherwood's Big Peace album above debut albums by Patrick Moraz, Steve Howe, Trevor Rabin, Bill Bruford and YES! Wacko
